00:00I'm certainly pro the state of Israel. They have a right to exist. I am very pro British Jews. I

00:06think that they are under threat in this country. We need to protect them. I see huge anti-Semitism or

00:13a huge increase in anti-Semitism in this country. I'm appalled by what the Green Party did at their conference.

00:21Throwing around words like Zionists, people like to use these labels. I'm not sure exactly what those people mean by

00:27that. But if you mean supporting the state of Israel and its right to self-determination, yes, I do believe

00:32in that. I do believe in a two-state solution. And I think that anyone who talks about there not

00:38being a state of Israel is actually talking about wiping them off the face of the earth. I think that's

00:42completely wrong. And I will do everything I can to fight against that.
