Every week seems to bring more evidence to support the thesis of David Baddiel’s book, Jews Don’t Count.

Take Oxford University’s decision, revealed at the weekend, to accept a grant from a trust established by Max Mosley, an unrepentant fascist supporter of his father, Oswald.

The grant includes the funding of a professorship with the Mosley name. So what if Jews at Oxford will be repeatedly confronted with a title honouring one of Britain’s most notorious antisemites? Jews don’t count.

Or take the Royal Court, a body which boasts of its commitment to anti-racism but which saw no reason to be bothered about a money-obsessed billionaire character named Hershel Fink, and which then — ludicrously — claimed it had no idea the names might be thought Jewish.

Anti-racism only goes so far, you see — and Jews don’t count. But for sheer idiocy on the other side of the scale, nothing beats the decision of the Cambridge Union to blacklist the distinguished art critic Andrew Graham-Dixon, who in a debate last week satirised Hitler — and was then banned for having impersonated him, with the Union apologising for having hosted him.

When there are so many actual racists and Jew haters with public platforms, it is quite a feat for the Cambridge Union to have managed to blacklist a speaker who was actually opposing racism.
