Christina Patterson has gone and done it again

Christina Patterson has gone and done it again.

Not satisfied with her initial rant in July about how rude her Chassidic neighbours in Stamford Hill are towards her, the Independent columnist has once again decided to defend it.

In a nutshell, she’s upset that she’s been listed on the Simon Wiesenthal Centre’s worst antisemitic slurs of 2010.

In her latest tirade, she justifies her original comments with an explanation closely associated to that old favourite “I can’t be antisemitic, I have Jewish friends” and says that even people with names like “Solomon, Symons or Greenfield” have sent her messages of support.
