How Senior Politicians May Be Changed by Terror

Yesterday morning, on Yom Kippur - the holiest day in the Jewish calendar - worshippers were attacked outside a synagogue in Crumpsall, Manchester.

Two Jewish men were killed, three remain in hospital and the attacker, now known as Jihad Al-Shamie - a British citizen of Syrian descent - was shot dead at the scene by police.

It was soon declared a terrorist incident. 

In close proximity to the October 7th anniversary, Jewish communities across the country have been shaken.
