You're not talking about a very big community outside of a couple of cities. How that made headlines I'm not sure.

Labour tends to have the muslim vote by religion, a counterpoint might be antisemitic but it might light a fire under them to vote for Corbyn...as horrible as it sounds.

I'm surprised that kind of headline was allowed to be published with any strong Brexit headlines apparently coinciding with a rise in racist attacks across the country.... but again... that's if you believe it.

Thats less than 0.4% of the country. So I'll make the point again - why does 0.4% of the country's population get a headline on their intentions at a general election? A lot of the UK's muslim voters aren't big on Jewish communities due to Israel etc, and they tend to be typical Labour voters. I'd expect a few cries of anti-Semitism.

It's extremely rare to see a traditional Jewish family anywhere in my county or the ones surrounding it. I know they exist, but they're mainly concentrated into suburbs of London and other cities.

Fish and chips... one of the UK's favourite foods, has its origins in a Jewish part of East London. Fried fish was big when a lot of Jewish migrants came in the 19th/early 20th century. If you wanted a fact for the day <3

The headline is one hundred percent anti-semitic, whatever it takes to get more votes for the Tories.

I can't tell if I'm agreeing with you because I don't speak British.

Isn't Corbyn a leaver though?

Corbyn is a well documented anti-Semite

I would know

I'm sure every Jew in the U.K. will emigrate if someone other than a Tory wins, that seems like a prediction a person who isn't crazy would make.

Not if someone other than a Tory wins, just Corbyn - who is an anti-semite and leads an anti-semitic party. Not sure why this is difficult to believe, look at what's happening in France and the exodus (pun intended) of Jewish people from there.

Historically yes, but his current position is to negotiate a new withdrawal agreement with the EU, then put it to a referendum and campaign against that deal for remain.

Technically that way, the UK doesn't have any control over anything in terms of how the EU conducts itself but we have to continue putting in 55million-60million GBP a week, have no control over our own borders, our own waters in terms of fishing and a bunch of other stuff.

So what you're getting there is Neville Chamberlain the 2nd, seeking appeasement because he's too weak to stand up to what's wrong with an out of control Germany.

Doesn't the UK have a veto for constitutional changes to EU treaties as well as other areas like justice, taxation and others i have forgotten?

Not that vetos ever get used...
