Bowman pledges new campaigns to address ‘toxic public culture’

Board of Deputies presidential candidate Amanda Bowman has pledged to initiate new campaigns to address “the increasingly toxic culture in public life”.

In a manifesto published on her campaign website, she says if elected she would explore a social media campaign to “counter the normalisation of antisemitism in today’s society”.

Vice-president of the organisation and head of its defence division for the past six years, she says her mission is to “build a better Board that is transparent and accountable”.

She promises a “tangible culture change” with the introduction of a “respect and civility code”.
