Today discussions to resolve the ban on fans of an Israeli football club attending a match against Aston Villa are happening “at pace, across government”, Downing Street has insisted. Sir Keir Starmer was “angered by the decision” to ban Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters from next month’s Europa League game in Birmingham amid public safety fears, and linked it to antisemitism. But West Midlands Police said it supported the decision, saying it had classified the fixture as “high-risk”. Emily Hilton, International Policy Director for the Jewish led organisation Diaspora Alliance, joins us to discuss.
And in part two, The Standard’s Nick Kimberley is here to review the English National Opera’s Albert Herring by Benjamin Britten, which is the first show to be staged since the company’s new ‘twin city’ existence between London and Manchester.
