Every few weeks in London so-called activists break into bus shelters and paste their own posters over paid-for advertising campaigns by legitimate much-loved brands that employ many millions of British people.

Why should anyone object to that? Why sign this petition?

Well, first off these ads are racist. They violate the widely accepted (including by the Mayor of London) IHRA definition of antisemitism (“Making mendacious, dehumanizing, demonizing, or stereotypical allegations about Jews”). They would never be allowed by Transport for London which has strict rules about ‘causing offence ’.  Nor would they be allowed by the Advertising Standards Authority.

Do these posters support human rights? No, these activist guerrillas pick on the one democracy in the Middle East where women and LGBTs enjoy equal rights. These ad thieves tell Londoners racist lies about that country and its people. These ad thieves incite hatred and violence.

The result? Innocent people raising their children thousands of miles from London are targeted by terrorists backed by Iran. As we sat here writing this petition three more rockets were fired by these terrorists at civilians. Each rocket = one war crime.

At home, attacks against UK-based friends and families of civilians in that country have attained record numbers in each of the last four years.   In our sister city, New York, attacks against Jews now make up half of all hate crimes reported to police.

By breaking into TfL’s bus shelters the vandals are trespassing. They’re stealing valuable advertising space that’s been paid for. Space that keeps people employed in all manufacturing, retail and service industries.

And they’re stealing from us.  As taxpayers, we all own TfL, a non-profit organisation that’s owned by our Government.

The country concerned is Israel. The people targeted are Jewish.

We simply cannot imagine any other race, religion or country that would be targeted like this while TfL and the Mayor of London simply turn a blind eye.

You should sign this petition because you don’t want another terrorist rocket to fall on the house of another civilian family, hospital or kindergarten.

You should sign this petition because you don’t want to hear about any more Londoners and visitors, adults as well as schoolchildren, being afraid to wear our 3,500 year old Jewish religious emblems in public and especially on public transport.

We ask that all brands and their creative and media agencies - as well as media owners like JC Decaux - stop buying TfL advertising space until Sadiq Khan in his dual roles as Mayor of London and Chief of TfL, makes London’s bus shelters vandal-proof.

He was quick to stop the ‘Beach Body Ready’ bikini  posters appearing on London Underground. He was quick to stop Londoners from seeing the unprovocative bare back of a ballet dancer in another campaign for tights that appeared on the Tube. He can very easily quickly stop the guerilla poster vandals who incite hatred, violence and genocide against one of the oldest indigenous peoples on the planet.
