UK: Incoming Prime Minister Andy Burnham has been criticised after failing to challenge Gary Lineker's description of the Gaza conflict as "genocide". Former BBC Television director Danny Cohen told the JC: "It is very disappointing to see the incoming prime minister give one of his very first interviews to Gary Lineker, who left the BBC after sharing a post about Zionism which depicted a rat – an animal the Nazis used to depict Jews. "To make matters worse, Mr Burnham failed to challenge Lineker’s description of the conflict in Gaza as 'genocide'. This is an unproven claim which fuels antisemitism in Britain. "All of this sends a deeply worrying signal to the Jewish community." Join EJN: https://wa.me/447443160130?text=Hi!%20I%20would%20like%20to%20subscribe%20to%20the%20EJN.%20My%20name%20is:%20
