"I have a colleague who is Jewish, who has been banned from visiting a school and refused permission to visit a school in his own constituency, in case his presence inflames the teachers. That is an absolute outrage."
"They will be called in, and they will be held to account for doing that, because you cannot have people with those kinds of attitudes teaching our children. You just can't have it."
The Independent deploys reporters to developing stories across reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech. The outlet funds open-access journalism through donations and avoids paywalls to make quality reporting available to everyone. Donations support journalists on the ground, investigative work into political funding, and documentary production. In Bristol, Labour MP Damien Egan was prevented from visiting Bristol Brunel Academy after a local Palestine Solidarity Campaign protested his planned appearance. Communities secretary Steve Reed described the ban of a Jewish colleague as an absolute outrage and said the school would be held to account for allowing such attitudes to influence teaching.
