It wasn't reversed until over 2 centuries later. They both benefited from each other over the native English. They probably were not even expelled because the king didn't like jews, but because the native English were getting antsy because of the (multiple) civil wars that had already taken place in england, the most recent being the barons war.
It would be more like me hating a doctor for intentionally injecting me with an aids needle
Oh, One more thing that was accidentally the fault of the normans was effectively creating the nucleus of communism. I shall explain: the normans treated the English like shit on the bottom of their shoes for long enough that the anglo saxon English started coming up with very radical solutions. England was arguably the first place where peasant masses sought to uproot the entire social system and replace it with, well, communism. Not marxism, but pre-marxist and pre-jacobin communism. They would actually completely uproot their social system with Cromwell, although he wasn't a communist and instead more moderate, many of the same talking points were shared between him and the diggers (communists).
There's a reason that Marx thought that marxism would take hold of England first. Without the angry masses of the English philosophizing and creating what would be the blueprint for marxism, there would be no marxism, but the English can hardly be blamed for the desire to be free.
"Not all x is y", true, not every norman king or noble was a bad person, but their conquest of England had disastrous consequences that still exist to this day
