Anytime someone blames or conflates all Jewish people including kids at their school with the state or government of Israel, that is dangerous and antisemitic, and it leads directly to violence against us.

Lammens: Derby atmosphere was best I've ever experienced

Yeh [the atmosphere was the best]. I think it has to be one of the best, if not the best games I've been part of, just in every facet. Like defending, attacking, the amount of chances we created, not giving away any chances. I thought it was really something that Saturday, so we hope we can do it like almost every home game, to be honest. The things you heard, like from the years past in Manchester, you think that you hope you can experience those nights. And I think that Saturday was one of them. So you try to, in the future, get as many of those nights as possible and then, hopefully, get some trophies.

This Ramadan, know this: I am me, a Muslim and a Briton. I am not a headline, a threat or a stereotype | Nazir Afzal

Not a day passes without some overt expression of it in our national life. A crime committed by one Muslim becomes an indictment of all Muslims. A cultural practice is wrenched from context and weaponised to provoke anxiety. A theological concept is distorted to imply threat. And on the streets, and increasingly online, it can turn into violence, intimidation or exclusion directed at anyone who looks Muslim.
