A group of websites run by a Sussex businessman have been hacked into by anti-Israel protesters.

Meynell Walter, the founder of the Meynell Games Group, which provides training and conferences to professionals who run children’s play groups, discovered seven of his websites had been hacked into last weekend.

A message appeared on the Meynell Games website in broken English and Turkish, which compared Jews to “vampires” while displaying an image of a burning Israeli flag.

Mr Walter, who ran Barkingside and Kenton’s Jewish youth clubs during the 1980s, said: “I was really annoyed when I saw it. I don’t know if it’s a personal attack. This is not the time we want something like this to happen as we have a big conference next month.
