The Gur Synagogue on Lampard Grove was targeted in the early hours of Friday. Images shared online show torn holy books scattered across the floor, smashed cabinets and lockers, and a visibly shaken community as police carried out forensic work at the scene.
A Metropolitan Police spokesperson confirmed: An investigation has been launched after a reported burglary in Lampard Grove, N16.

However, police confirmed to Jewish News that there is currently no indication the break-in was antisemitic in nature, and said it remains unclear what, if anything, was stolen.

I read somewhere recently that Germany has been mis-classifying antisemitic incidents in order to downplay the huge increases in attacks, violence, harassment of Jews. It seems to be working for them apparently.

Regarding what you said about Germany, I can't remember if this article was in the New York Times or the Washington Post, but it said that in Germany, whenever there is an antisemitic incident, there is a delayed reaction to see the identity of the attacker before speaking up. So if the attacker is a Muslim immigrant, the far right speaks up, and the left is, of course, silent. Vice versa the attacker is a neo-Nazi.
