IPSO | Interlink vs The Daily Telegraph

IPSO upheld a complaint by Interlink, a foundation representing Orthodox Jewish organisations, over a February 2021 Daily Telegraph article titled "Forced marriage has no place in Britain, says PM".

28/2/22: IPSO upheld a complaint by Interlink, a foundation representing Orthodox Jewish organisations, over a February 2021 Daily Telegraph article titled “Forced marriage has no place in Britain, says PM”. IPSO agreed with Interlink that the article gave the misleading impression the prime minister’s remarks had referred specifically to forced marriage among ultra-Orthodox Jewish communities. An Interlink complaint about a second article, “Not anti-Semitic to tackle forced marriage, says Jewish group”, was not upheld. (Full ruling)
