I’ve just been elected Speaker (civic Mayor) of Hackney for 2021/22, my second term of office, a great honour for me and my family. Distinguished predecessors include Herbert Morrison – Peter Mandelson’s grandfather, Sir Lou Sherman, Stanley Clinton-Davis (now Lord Clinton-Davis) and my old friend from the Board of Deputies, Arthur Super, in 1975/76.
Support your Jewish community. Support your Jewish News
Thank you for helping to make Jewish News the leading source of news and opinion for the UK Jewish community. Today we re asking for your invaluable help to continue putting our community first in everything we do.
Unlike other Jewish media, we do not charge for content. That won’t change. Because we are free, we rely on advertising to cover our costs. This vital lifeline, which has dropped in recent years, has fallen further due to coronavirus.
For as little as £5 a month you can help sustain the vital work we do in celebrating and standing up for Jewish life in Britain.
