MPs Tom Tugendhat and Lisa Nandy will be speaking at Manchester’s march against antisemitism on Sunday, at what is expected to be the largest gathering in history of the Manchester Jewish community.
Tugendhat, who is security minister and Nandy, the shadow minister for international development will be joined by MP Nicola Richards, co-chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Antisemitism and Lord Mann, the government’s independent adviser on antisemitism.
Marc Levy, CEO of Manchester Jewish Representative Council, said they were hoping for a turnout of around 5,000 people.
