       A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police said the incident is being treated as a hate crime.

       Prime Minister Boris Johnson said he was “appalled” by the incident.

       “This attack is a terrible reminder, on Holocaust Memorial Day, that such prejudice is not consigned to history, but remains a very real problem in society. We must stamp out antisemitism.” he said.

       Home Secretary Priti Patel described the incident as an “absolutely despicable attack”.

       She tweeted: “This, on the eve of #HolocaustMemorialDay, is a sickening reminder of why we must never allow antisemitism to take root. We won’t tolerate abuse towards our Jewish community.
