British surgeon launches legal challenge over NHS use of IHRA definition
A British surgeon, Ranjeet Brar, is challenging the NHS's use of the IHRA definition of antisemitism, claiming it led to his suspension after a pro-Palestine speech. Brar argues the definition unlawfully restricts political expression, with the NHS citing concerns his remarks could be interpreted as antisemitic.
