Meanwhile, in Newham:

A council meeting in Newham, East London was suspended after Jewish councillor Joshua Garfield was hissed at by attendees in the public gallery.

Garfield, a Jewish Labour councillor for Stratford and the only Jewish councillor in the borough, approached the microphone at a Newham council meeting to contribute to the discussion on setting the budget, but was met with the sound of hissing and jeering.
