Exhibition Showing ‘Jews’ Eating Babies Not Abusive or Insulting, Police Claim
24th March 2026
Drawings at an “anti-Semitic” art exhibition allegedly showing Jewish people eating babies are not “directly abusive or insulting” to Jews, a police force has decided.
Kent Police has ruled that art in the exhibition condemned by leading Jewish figures and politicians for portraying anti-Semitic tropes has not reached the threshold to be considered either a hate crime or a non-crime hate incident.
The force was responding to a complaint after the exhibition, called Drawings Against Genocide, prompted an outcry from Jewish campaign groups and politicians who said the artwork was “grotesque” and “not just sickening, but dangerous”.
