According to British Muslim journalist [[Mehdi Hasan]], "anti-Semitism isn't just tolerated in some sections of the British Muslim community; it's routine and commonplace".<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/uk/2013/03/sorry-truth-virus-anti-semitism-has-infected-british-muslim-community|title=The sorry truth is that the virus of anti-Semitism has infected the British Muslim community|work=The New Statesman|first=Mehdi|last=Hasan|date=21 March 2013}}</ref> A 2016 survey of 5,446 adult Britons, part of a report titled ''Anti-Semitism in contemporary Great Britain'' that was conducted by the London-based [[Institute for Jewish Policy Research]], found that the prevalence of antisemitic views among Muslims was two to four times higher than the rest of the population. Antisemitic views were on average twice as high among British Muslims compared to the average British population. 55% of British Muslims held at least one antisemitic view, and the survey found there was a correlation between higher levels of  Muslim religiosity and education and  their endorsement of antisemitic theories.<ref>{{cite news |date=2017-01-12 |title=British Muslims twice as likely to espouse anti-Semitic views, survey suggests |url=https://www.jta.org/2017/09/12/news-opinion/world/british-muslims-twice-likelier-than-others-to-espouse-anti-semitic-views-survey-suggests |access-date=2024-11-21 |work=[[Jewish Telegraphic Agency]]}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-41241353|title=Over a quarter of British people 'hold anti-Semitic attitudes', study finds|work=BBC News|first=Callum|last=May|date=13 September 2017}}</ref> A 2020 poll found that 45% of British Muslims hold a generally favourable view of British Jews, and 18% hold a negative view.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.thetimes.com/uk/society/article/minorities-still-believe-in-tolerant-britain-poll-finds-70m625rt8|title = Minorities still believe in tolerant Britain, poll finds}}</ref>
