Keir Starmer is chairing emergency meetings on the 'appalling' Manchester synagogue attack today amid warnings Jewish people no longer feel safe.
The PM said extra police are being deployed to synagogues across the country, as he cut short a summit in Copenhagen to return for a Cobra meeting on the atrocity in Crumpsall.
As cross-party condemnation flowed in, campaigners pointed to mounting pro-Gaza protests in London and other cities - saying violence against Jews was not a surprise.
Sir Keir said: 'The fact that this has taken place on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, makes it all the more horrific.
'My thoughts are with the loved ones of all those affected, and my thanks go to the emergency services and all the first responders.'
