After defeating the scandal-plagued Labour party in December elections, Boris Johnson took a strong stand against anti-Semitism during recent comments before Parliament.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson recently stood up in front of the British legislature and vowed to “stamp out the resurgence of anti-Semitism.”
Johnson made the comments as International Holocaust Remembrance Day approaches, adding, “As someone who’s now 55-years-old I find it absolutely incredible that in the 21st century we have anti-Semitism rising again in this country.”
“It is a disgrace and we must stamp it out,” he added.
