Culture Secretary says Tricycle “misguided” over Jewish film festival boycott

“I hope the Tricycle and festival organisers can find a way forward.”

Mr Javid, a long-time supporter of Conservative Friends of Israel, said he had contacted both parties about the row.

UKJFF films will now be shown at more than 10 venues for the November festival. They include the Arthouse Crouch End, the Barbican, BFI Southbank, Cine Lumiere, the Everyman cinema, JW3, Odeon Swiss Cottage, Odeon South Woodford, the Phoenix cinema, all in London, and the Cornerhouse in Manchester and Broadway in Nottingham.
