About this analysis

Angela Epstein's column argues that the annual AJEX remembrance parade at the Cenotaph still matters. She draws on a caller's remarks in a TV debate, the history of Jewish service in the two world wars and the 90th anniversary of Cable Street. We list no finding against it under the tests that apply to an opinion piece.

Opinion piece: read for false claims of fact and for fairness to the people it names, not for its opinions.

What it gets right

  • “thousands of Jewish and Irish East End residents blocked Sir Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists from marching through the heart of London’s Jewish community”

    The column names who marched and what they were: Mosley's British Union of Fascists. It names who stopped them, and does not soften either side.

  • “particularly given the increasingly toxic rhetoric surrounding immigration to the UK today, that among those who served in the First World War were Jews who had come to Britain to escape antisemitism”

    The column ties Jewish refugees' service to today's rhetoric about immigration. It treats migrants as people who served and belonged, not as a threat.
