The Spectator(@spectator):With Yom Kippur, the Jewish day of atonement beginning today, social media will no doubt soon be humming with supportive messages from politicians eager to demonstrate their solidarity with Britain's Jewish community. Such sentiments are deeply appreciated and can be a source of great comfort when offered by those whose support for the Jewish community isn't conditional, tactical or selective. Unfortunately, that doesn't apply to Prime Minister Andy Burnham. ✍️ Angela Epstein Article |
