Jewish Londoners - Sunday 15 February


I got this via SERTUC. Not often they send stuff out about events that has been sponsored by the City of London!

No doubt it’s down to that pesky Peter Mandelson.

Should be an interesting day mind.

In City hall before Christmas there was a very good historical exhibition (now finished) of postcards about the Jewish community.
