Sir Oswald Mosley, leader of the chief British Fascist movement, today officially stated the Fascist attitude toward the Jews does not include persecution or discrimination. Mosley has been under heavy attack for his alleged anti-Semitism in the press since his bid for power at the Albert Hall Fascist rally.

He declared today regarding the Jews that there will be “no racial or religious persecution. It is not the British way,” he asserted, “to persecute for birth or religion. But, like the rest, the Jews must put Britain, not Jewry, first.”
