On Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, Jews in Manchester went to synagogue to pray and never came home. They were murdered for being Jews. In Britain.

This atrocity did not come out of nowhere. It was the result of years of appeasement, inertia and indifference. Islamist extremists have been allowed to radicalise openly, to glorify terrorists in full view of the authorities, to hijack our streets week after week.

Politicians have offered platitudes, police have failed to enforce the law, universities have tolerated hatred, broadcasters have platformed it, and regulators have looked away.

The Jewish community knew it was just a matter of time before........
