Campaign Against Antisemitism

The Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) is an organization that monitors and combats antisemitism in the UK. It advocates for the safety and security of Jewish people and often pursues legal action against individuals or groups perceived to be engaging in antisemitic behavior. The CAA is currently newsworthy due to a recent court ruling that quashed a summons against comedian Reginald D. Hunter. A judge determined that the CAA misled the court and that their motive in pursuing a private prosecution against Hunter was an "abusive" attempt to have him "cancelled." This ruling has brought scrutiny to the CAA's tactics and motivations. Separately, the CAA's work is relevant in the context of recent arrests related to alleged Iranian spying on the Jewish community in London, highlighting the ongoing concerns about antisemitism and security within the Jewish community.
