Board of Deputies President Marie van der Zyl has praised the UK Government for its decision not to attend the Durban IV conference.
Marie said: “We warmly welcome the Government’s announcement that the UK will not attend Durban IV, a commemoration of a supposedly anti-racism conference which itself was antisemitic. We will always support the fight against racism, but this must include opposing antisemitism in all its forms.”
