Wiley anti-Semitic tweets: Emma Barnett and callers react

Available for over a year

Rapper Wiley’s Twitter account has been temporarily locked while Instagram said it had deleted some of his content, after a long series of anti-Semitic posts on both platforms on Friday and Sunday. 5 Live’s Emma Barnett, whose grandmother escaped the Nazis from Austria, spoke out about the rapper’s views, saying his words “burn deep”. She also spoke to Stephen Bush, political editor of the New Statesman and Chair of the board of Deputies of British Jews’ report on racial inclusivity and Karen Pollock, Chief Executive of Holocaust Education trust as well as members of the public who contacted 5 Live to have their say on the rapper’s posts.
