Miliband: We cannot have no-go areas for Jews in UK

Ed Miliband has warned that nowhere in the UK should be a “no-go area” for Jews and Israelis.

The energy secretary has intervened as the row over the decision by West Midlands Police to ban football fans of Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv from attending their Europa League match in Birmingham against Aston Villa has continued to escalate.

Speaking on Sky News, the energy secretary, who has Jewish heritage, was asked for his response to a petition by independent MP for Birmingham Perry Barr, Ayoub Khan, which called for the match to be halted. Mr Miliband said: “No, I profoundly disagree with that approach, with what is being said in that petition.”
