The Campaign Against Antisemitism, which published the video, sharply criticized the remarks and called for further consequences. By Vered Weiss, World Israel NewsTransport for London said it has suspended a Bakerloo line Tube driver after he publicly stated that Jewish passengers would not be safe if he were operating a train.The remarks were captured in footage and later published by the Campaign Against Antisemitism.The driver, who was attending a protest and carrying a banner reading “National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers – Bakerloo Branch.”, was asked: “Is it safe for Jews to ride the Bakerloo line?”.He responded: “Not when I’m driving”.He also told Jewish travelers to “stay away” more broadly, though he indicated he would not be driving that day due to his participation in the protest.Transport for London confirmed it had reviewed the footage and taken action, The Daily Mail reported.The agency said it has been made aware of the incident and that the staff member has been suspended pending further investigation.The Campaign Against Antisemitism, which published the video, sharply criticized the remarks and called for further consequences.“This is disgusting and clearly falls far short of the most basic expectations for public transport,” the group said. “More than two-thirds of British Jews already do not feel comfortable displaying their identity on public transport. We are grateful that TfL has identified and suspended this individual. We expect that he will ultimately be dismissed.”The incident has raised concerns about passenger safety and conduct among public transport staff, with the investigation ongoing as authorities review the circumstances surrounding the driver’s statements.So far in 2026, antisemitism in the UK remains at elevated levels, with continued incidents and heightened security concerns.Authorities have investigated suspected antisemitic attacks, including attempted arson targeting Jewish sites, and have made arrests linked to threats against community venues.Violence and intimidation have continued, prompting increased police presence and involvement from counterterrorism units. The trend follows record-high incident levels in 2025, with indications that similar patterns are persisting.The post London Tube driver suspended for saying Jews wouldn’t be safe while he drives appeared first on World Israel News.
