Representatives for a leading Jewish group in the UK have requested an urgent meeting with the editor of The Guardian newspaper over its cartoon they believe contained “antisemitic tropes.”
The Guardian has apologised for its publication of a cartoon depicting the former BBC chairman Richard Sharp – who is Jewish – who quit on Friday, following a report criticising his role in helping secure a loan for former prime minister Boris Johnson.
The Times of London reports that the Board of Deputies of British Jews has written to The Guardian to voice its concerns, saying:
“We have written to The Guardian requesting an urgent meeting with the editor, Katharine Viner, in regard to yesterday’s shocking cartoon . . . which contained antisemitic tropes. This is far from the first time the paper has crossed the line in terms of highly questionable content connected to the Jewish community.”
The Guardian has removed from its website the cartoon showing former BBC chairman Richard Sharp – holding a box marked Goldman Sachs (Sharp is a former banker), with an image of a squid and a pig eating. Former PM Boris Johnson is also depicted in the cartoon, naked and clutching sacks of money.
The newspaper made a public apology, stating:
“We understand the concerns that have been raised. This cartoon does not meet our editorial standards and we have decided to remove it from our website.
“The Guardian apologises to Mr Sharp, to the Jewish community and to anyone offended.”

In addition to his many party anthems — “Drink a Beer,” “Roller Coaster,” “Crash My Party” and “Play it Again” came all in a row — he also sprinkled in covers of Tim McGraw’s “Where the Green Grass Grows” and Brooks and Dunn’s “Neon Moon.”

Treasure Coast Newspapers.The bill is designed to block establishments from allowing children to view any “adult live performance,” defined as any show, exhibition, or other presentation in front of a live audience which…depicts or simulates nudity, sexual conduct, sexual excitement, or specific sexual activities…lewd conduct, or the lewd exposure of prosthetic or imitation genitals or breasts.”Violators of the law can potentially have their license to serve liquor yanked. While defenders of drag shows argue that they are not inherently sexual, the fact that some shows are more risqué has led anti-LGBTQ opponents to deem the entire art form inappropriate for children and potentially problematic.And the possible presence of drag queens in public led organizers to cancel the parade, which always had been open to people of all ages. Organizers also restricted admission to Pridefest events based on a separate law prohibiting the sale of alcohol to those under the age of 21.“The city has decided that with the likelihood that the Governor will sign the latest bill into effect this evening, that we will need to be on the side of caution and has required us to make this necessary change,” Pride of the Treasure Coast wrote on its Facebook page.
