Attack Upon Jewish Children

EDM number 1285 in 1989-90, proposed by Greville Janner on 17/07/1990.

That this House notes the following news item headed 'School Stabbings' which appeared on page 10 of the Daily Telegraph of 17th July, two thirds of the way down column eight, namely 'four boys, aged six to eight, were stabbed by a woman at an Auckland Jewish school while she shouted anti-Jewish slogans. A woman of 52 was charged with attempted murder and remanded to a hospital'; notes that that incident received no mention at all in The Times, The Guardian or The Independent; and contrasts the tiny Press attention given to a brutal attack on Jewish children by an apparently deranged woman with the massive publicity given to the dreadful murder of seven Palestinians recently by an equally deranged Jew.

This motion has been signed by a total of 9 MPs.
