Manchester Terrorism Attack

Debate between Shabana Mahmood and Luke Charters

Monday 13th October 2025 Commons Chamber

[Shabana Mahmood]

I will be speaking to all our colleagues in the devolved Administrations. I am happy to discuss with my hon. Friend the wider lessons on interfaith work to be drawn from his own experience.

[Mr Luke Charters (York Outer) (Lab)]

The horrific terrorist attack at Heaton Park follows a decade during which antisemitism has increased nearly every year, and the CST has confirmed that antisemitism is increasing on university campuses. In York we have two fantastic universities where antisemitism has no place. Will my right hon. Friend commit to working with the Secretary of State for Education to ensure that universities across the country have all they need to root out antisemitism for good?

[Shabana Mahmood]

Yes, absolutely.
