#1 activities and pronouncements of Theresa May, UK PM and shill for Israel

[NewsFeed]

Anyone wondering about the priorities of Mrs Theresa May should follow her actions from the moment she learned she was to become Britain’s next Prime Minister.
Her first act was to sign a pledge committing her to remember the Holocaust and “stand up to hatred and intolerance”. And her second was to spend the evening before her confirmation by the Queen at a private dinner at the home of Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis.
Whatever else awaits the British people, they can be under no doubt that their new leader is once again a true Friend of Israel.

In a parliamentary career marked by cowardice and a tendency to go along with whichever political wind is blowing, it is hard to say which has been Mrs Theresa May’s most inglorious moment. Was it her decision, as Home Secretary, to throw open Britain’s borders and allow immigration to arise to record levels — after being elected specifically on a promise to reduce it? Perhaps it was her plans to target “non-violent extremists” via blacklists, internet free-speech restrictions and movement bans?

For many nationalists, the most egregious moment in this wretched woman’s career came in a speech she gave at the Finchley United Synagogue in April 2015 when she defiled the memory of British servicemen killed in Palestine 1939 — 1948 by praising, instead, their Jewish terrorist killers.

So as today we celebrate the independence of the state of Israel and pay our respects to those who have fought so hard for it…. We remember the sacrifice of those who fought to achieve and protect that independence….

Thus the woman about to become the British Prime Minister tarnished the sacrifice of an estimated 784 British servicemen, police and crown officers killed in what is — for the Friends of Israel — one of the most embarrassing episodes in British colonial history (see Note below). She did not even have the decency to deliver this stab in the back behind closed doors.

Understandably, there has been much glee in the Jewish press over the elevation of such a devoted Friend of Israel to the position of Prime Minister. The Times of Israel said she was widely regarded as a good friend.

The Jewish Chronicle noted:

But of all the contenders to follow David Cameron — both from the Conservatives and other parties — it is the 59-year-old Maidenhead MP who boasts the soundest track-record on Jewish concerns.

Much like her touring of Tory associations nationwide, Mrs May’s appearances at communal dinners and meetings with Jewish groups have been carried out both frequently and quietly.

On that score, her history of supporting Jewish initiatives is strong. Last July there was a speech at Hasmonean High School’s annual dinner; two months later she met Board of Deputies president Jonathan Arkush; and then there was the aforementioned CST dinner…

It was Mrs May who, last December, stood in for David Cameron at the Downing Street Chanucah party, lighting the menorah alongside Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis. Little could she have dreamt that this year she would be repeating the feat as Prime Minister herself…

Mr Cameron has been lauded as the most philosemitic premier since Margaret Thatcher. British Jews will now hope that the second woman to hold the keys to Number 10 will follow in the footsteps of those two predecessors.

It was the Charlie Hebdo massacre in Paris that gave Mrs May the opportunity to demonstrate that the welfare of the Jewish community was at the top of her priorities. Most of the Charlie Hebdo victims were non-Jewish but that detail seemed to escape Mrs May. Or maybe it was just not important. She said at the time “I never thought I would see the day when members of the Jewish community in the United Kingdom would say that they were fearful of remaining here in our country. And that means that we must all redouble our efforts to wipe out anti-Semitism here in Britain.”



Warming to her theme she said “without its Jews, Britain would not be Britain,” and then she said “Jewish people have long been an important and integral part of this country”.

Asserting that “the safety of the Jewish people can never be taken for granted,” Mrs May said it is a “tragic fact of history that the Jewish people have had to protect themselves against repeated attempts to obliterate them.” She even repeated David Cameron’s words that, “If the Jewish community does not feel secure then our whole national fabric is diminished.” Fine words, if only the White communities of Rotherham and elsewhere could find someone to defend their interests with as much passion.

There was another curious boast during that Finchley speech which came at a time when prosecution of “historic” war crimes is still popular in Germany and elsewhere. For Mrs May said she was proud of changing the British law to make it impossible to prosecute Israeli war criminals in the UK under Universal Jurisdiction, so that alleged killers such as Tzipi Livni and Israeli officers involved in crimes against Palestinian civilians can roam free in Britain. Pro-Palestinians in Britain applied in court for an arrest warrant issued for Livni who was Foreign Minister during Israel’s brutal 2008 Operation Cast Lead operation but thanks to the intervention of the British government, automatic immunity was granted to Israeli government officials visiting Britain.

But that later Finchley speech showed even more shameless self-abasement. Mrs May complimented Israel’s leading role in combating human trafficking, and omitted to mention the abuse of Palestinians and its expulsion of African workers from the Zionist state.

It was also an occasion on which Mrs May declared her allegiance to the so-called “Community Security Trust,” a Jewish vigilante body. Four months ago she was given a standing ovation at the annual CST dinner for handing over £13.4 million of British taxpayers money to this sinister organisation which claims to protect Jewish schools and synagogues. (This figure represented a £2 million increase on the figure promised by David Cameron the previous year which in itself was an increase of £3 million on the year before that!)

Not long after Britain joined the international commitment to defend Charlie Hebdo’s freedom to satirize Islam, Theresa May’s Home Office began a prosecution against a White nationalist called Joshua Bonehill for publishing Holocaust cartoons on the internet. Bonehill was sentenced to three years and three months of imprisonment and has since been charged in prison for two-year old “race hate” tweets against a Jewish MP, the fragrant Luciana Berger.

There are numerous examples of Mrs May’s cowardice but most recently she showed a lamentable talent for failing to give leadership when the situation most called for it during the EU referendum debate. Instead of defending her position in the Remain camp she kept her head down and was invisible during the campaign. A gross dereliction of duty by any standard.

The elevation of Theresa May can be seen as the mirror-image of the fate of her opposite number. The end game has now surely begun for Jeremy Corbyn, the embattled leader of the Labour Party. Normally it would be good riddance — Corbyn is an odious open borders internationalist and loud enthusiast for flooding Britain with the Third World. In every way then, Corbyn someone who would normally be acceptable to the political elite. Except one — his sentimental attachment to the one group of people he does feel some affinity for — Palestinians. This has set him beyond the pale of our political puppet masters, so Corbyn has to go.

It looks as if his defenestration may come at the hands of a veteran leftie. In their political outlook, leadership challenger Angela Eagle is pretty much indistinguishable from Corbyn but is shrewd enough to stay away from the Middle East. She voted for the Iraq war and two years ago was one of a handful of MPs who voted against recognising the state of Palestine. Significantly the Times of Israel reported that she recently met a delegation of Jewish students to pledge her committment to fighting anti-Semitism.

One of the most entertaining aspects of the media coverage around all this concerns the questions that journalists are scurrilously avoiding asking. Such as, if it had not been for the entirely fabricated anti-Semitism scare, would this Labour leadership contest be happening? Of course the answer is no, because the rise of Theresa May and the fall of Corbyn are due to the same reason — that it is as unthinkable that we could have party leaders unacceptable to the Jewish lobby.


NOTE: As we have noted before, the story of the Palestine Mandate and the casualties that the British suffered, is one that the authorities are only too eager to drop down the rabbit hole. The British must not be reminded of the deaths inflicted by Jewish terrorists against British servicemen throughout World War II. This terrorist campaign was also vigorously conducted as allied troops landed on Normandy and fought their way through France.

The casualties included a 25-year old gunner called Harold Yates from Sheffield whose death may be attributable to the presence of a Zionist “fifth column” in Britain which gave the go ahead for the attack in which he was killed. A veteran of Dunkirk, he was guarding a railway junction when he was shot down by terrorist wearing British army uniforms. The attacks on British servicemen were acts of treachery that can be compared with the bombing of the USS Liberty.

The atrocities also included the King David bombing in which 91 were killed by the Irgun organisation. Also there was the savage killing of 20-year-old sergeants Clifford Martin and Mervyn Paice. The two men were kidnapped, held for 28 days and then strangled. Their bodies were left hanging in a eucalyptus grove and were booby trapped with land mines.

Bitch, don’t you have some grandkids to care for? Oh, right, you have no children. What about your old parents? Oh, right, died in a car crash when you were a child. Well then – how about you put on a bonnet and go milk a cow. This is men’s business we are dealing with.

Welp.

Britain is replacing the partial-Jew Cameron with a nagging, ninnying female.

Home Secretary Theresa May became the country’s leader-in-waiting after her sole remaining rival unexpectedly withdrew, saying Britain needs stability amid the uncertainty caused by its vote to leave the European Union.

Prime Minister David Cameron welcomed the development and said he would offer his resignation to Queen Elizabeth II on Wednesday after attending a final session of Prime Minister’s Questions in the House of Commons.

Standing outside 10 Downing St. Cameron said: “We will have a new prime minister in that building behind me by Wednesday evening.”

May will become Britain’s second female prime minister, after Margaret Thatcher.

Cameron announced his resignation after failing to convince voters to remain in the EU in a June 23 referendum. May had campaigned tepidly for Britain to remain but on Monday sought to reassure those who voted “leave” that she would respect their wishes.

It’s to be expected. The Jew plan is to have a grrrl power trio rule the three sectors.

Three saggy old matrons to take down the White male patriarchy and replace it with an Arab male patriarchy.

Three dog-faced old hags, guarding the gates of Zion.

It’s William Blake, of course.

I guess it’s about time we had three women ruling the three most powerful nations in the Western world.

What with the Ministers of War of European nations being almost entirely female.

They want a war with Russia because one time they were at a cocktail party and a tall blonde Russian woman with silicon breasts who was there with a wealthy old businessman made a joke about their shoes.

And also especially because of, you know, the Huffington Post editorial team.

This is the blog that pushes “diversity” harder than any other publication in the world.

The future is matriarchal.

The reptilians have willed it.

Weep, ye man.

“As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” -Isaiah 3:12

The relatively unknown investment fund where Theresa May’s husband Philip works as a senior executive is one of the world’s largest and most powerful financial institutions, controlling $1.4 trillion in assets.

Its portfolio also includes $20 billion of shares in Amazon and Starbucks, both of which were cited by the Prime Minister-designate in her pledge to crack down on tax avoidance yesterday.

Latest filings to US authorities show that Los Angeles based Capital Group owns huge stakes in a variety of companies, including investment bank JP Morgan Chase, defence giant Lockheed Martin, tobacco company Philip Morris International, the pharmaceutical sector’s Merck & Co, and also Ryanair.

The company, which has a low profile outside the financial sector, has confirmed that Mr May, a pension fund expert, works out of its Mayfair office in London, with a spokeswoman telling The Independent: “Philip is a client relationship manager who stays in contact with organisations and institutions in the UK to ensure they are happy with the service being delivered by Capital Group and that we understand their goals. Philip is not involved with our investment research or portfolio management activities.”

However, the company he works for has benefited from its investments in the likes of Amazon and Starbucks, both of which have been criticised for tax avoidance structures and which were mentioned by Ms May as she outlined her manifesto for Downing Street yesterday.

She said: “We need to talk about tax. It doesn’t matter to me whether you’re Amazon, Google or Starbucks: you have a duty to put something back, you have a debt to your fellow citizens, you have a responsibility to pay your taxes. So as Prime Minister, I will crack down on individual and corporate tax avoidance and evasion.”

It is not clear whether she was aware that her husband’s company was such a significant investor in the Amazon and Starbucks.

According to latest filings on 31 March this year, Capital Group, through its various divisions and funds, including Capital World Investors and Capital Research Global Investors, owned at least 32 million shares in Amazon, worth about $20bn.

(JTA) — British Conservative Party leader Theresa May, who is expected to succeed David Cameron as prime minister when he resigns Wednesday, is being welcomed as a longtime friend of Britain’s Jewish community and a strong advocate for Israel.

May, 59, was named party leader Monday following weeks of jockeying and political turmoil surrounding the decision by voters to leave the European Union and Cameron’s subsequent decision to step down.

As the country’s home secretary, May was known to be a frequent guest at Jewish communal events, where she would praise Israel and British Jewry’s contributions to the country. The Community Security Trust and other Jewish groups thanked May for securing significant government funding to protect Jewish institutions in the wake of terrorist attacks in Europe.

Supporters recalled Monday that following the terrorist murders in 2015 at a kosher supermarket in Paris, May carried a sign to a Board of Deputies of British Jews meeting reading “Je Suis Juif” (I am Jewish) in solidarity with its victims.

In 2011, May banned from Britain the leader of the northern branch of the Islamic movement in Israel, Sheikh Raed Salah, for encouraging extremism.

May has also pledged to defend kosher slaughter, which is under attack in many parts of Europe on animal cruelty grounds.

“As Home Secretary for six years, Mrs. May is better placed than most of her Westminster colleagues to assess the threats facing British Jews,” Marcus Dysch, a columnist for the Jewish Chronicle, wrote Monday.

Ansel Pfeffer, writing in Israel’s Haaretz newspaper last week, noted that shortly after visiting Israel in 2014, May told the Conservative Friends of Israel that in the face of threats from Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS and Iran, Israel must “maintain a strong defense and security capability and be prepared to deploy it if necessary.”

At the same event, she also noted, “we must remember that there will be no lasting peace or justice in the region until the Palestinian people are able to enjoy full civil rights themselves.”

Eric Pickles, a member of Parliament and chairman of Conservative Friends of Israel, said Monday: “As a politician not known for hollow platitudes, Israel can rest assured that a UK led by Theresa May will be there in its moments of need.”

The decision to abolish the Department for Energy and Climate Change has been variously condemned as “plain stupid”, “deeply worrying” and “terrible” by politicians, campaigners and experts.

One of Theresa May’s first acts as Prime Minister was to move responsibility for climate change to a new Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy.

Only on Monday, Government advisers had warned of the need to take urgent action to prepare the UK for floods, droughts, heatwaves and food shortages caused by climate change.

The news came after the appointment of Andrea Leadsom – who revealed her first question to officials when she became Energy Minister last year was “Is climate change real? – was appointed as the new Environment Secretary.

And, after former Energy and Climate Change Secretary Amber Rudd announced in November that Britain was going to “close coal” by 2025, Ms Leadsom later asked the coal industry to help define what this actually meant.

Former Labour leader Ed Miliband tweeted: “DECC abolition just plain stupid. Climate not even mentioned in new deptartment title. Matters because departments shape priorities, shape outcomes.”

Greenpeace said it was concerned that the new Government did not view climate change as a serious threat..

John Sauven, the campaign group's executive director, said: “The voting record and affiliation with climate sceptics of key cabinet appointees are deeply worrying.

"They show a lack of understanding posed by climate change to the UK and the world. If we are to continue to have a key global role in environmental action, we need urgent reassurance from the new government that the hard won progress on climate and renewables targets, air pollution and the protection of wildlife will not be sidelined or abandoned in the Brexit negotiations.”

Green Party MP Caroline Lucas described the decision as “deeply worrying”.

“Climate change is the biggest challenge we face, and it must not be an afterthought for the Government,” she said.

“Dealing with climate change requires a dedicated Minister at the Cabinet table. To throw it into the basement of another Whitehall department, looks like a serious backwards step.”

She said she would work with any Minister “willing to take climate change seriously”, but added she would seek to hold Government to account for “any backpeddling on our climate change commitments”.

Craig Bennett, chief executive of Friends of the Earth, pointed out that a major report into the effects of climate change on Britain had made clear that it was already happening.

“This is shocking news. Less than a day into the job and it appears that the new Prime Minister has already downgraded action to tackle climate change, one of the biggest threats we face,” he said.

“This week the Government’s own advisors warned of ever growing risks to our businesses, homes and food if we don’t do more to cut fossil fuel pollution.

“If Theresa May supports strong action on climate change, as she’s pr

True to form, the new Prime Minister of the UK has come out and declared that she was “shocked” by an event everyone knew was 100% inevitable.

What’s more, Theresa has said that Britain is next, so people had better get ready to get blown up, shot and/or run down with a semi-truck in the name of Allah.

Newly appointed British Prime Minister Theresa May has called an urgent meeting of the government’s emergency COBRA committee, saying a terror attack on the UK is “highly likely” following the devastating attack in Nice which left 84 people dead.

May says Britain should not expect attacks like those in Belgium, France, and elsewhere could not occur in the UK.

“The threat level here in the United Kingdom is already at severe, which means a terrorist attack is highly likely,” she said.

The threat from international terrorism has been “severe” since 2014, when it was upgraded from “substantial.” The threat is just one below “critical,” when an attack is expected imminently, in the five-point threat scale used by government.

Maybe if you know it’s going to happen, you should do something to stop it?

Oh, right – that is completely impossible.

So I guess you’re just going to have to lie down and take it. Maybe you shouldn’t announce it then, so people are more surprised? I mean, if we’re just going to be dealing with this every week forever now, surely there is some way to make it a fun game?

(JTA) — Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel sent incoming British Prime Minister Theresa May a warm welcome.

The Israeli prime minister wrote May, who officially succeeded David Cameron as prime minister on Wednesday, a letter of congratulations and felicitations following her installation, his office shared in a statement.

‘Theresa May, the current UK home secretary who will be prime minister by the evening of Wednesday 13 July, is on record for defending Israeli impunity and is in total denial of the historic injustice committed by Britain when it collaborated with European Zionist terrorists – who had been murdering its own soldiers and policemen in Palestine – to dispossess and ethnically cleanse the indigenous Palestinians from their land and impose a colonial settler-state in Palestine.

Theresa May, in other words, is as slavishly Zionist as the Zionist pimp she replaces, David Cameron, known to some as “Agent Cameron”.

In the video below, Mrs May delivers a speech to the Bneir Akiva, Britain’s largest Zionist youth movement, to celebrate the creation of Israel, the colonial settler-state founded on the bones and in the houses and farms that had been stolen from the Palestinian people.’

Theresa May has declared without hesitation that she would order a nuclear strike to kill hundreds of thousands of people if she thought it was necessary.

The Prime Minister gave the blunt reply during a parliamentary debate on the renewal of the Trident nuclear weapons programme, which many suspect was staged by the government for the sole purpose of drawing attention to the rift between Jeremy Corbyn and a majority of Labour MPs.

Ms May was challenged by the SNP’s George Kerevan, who asked: "Are you prepared to authorise a nuclear strike that could kill hundreds of thousands of men, women and children?”

Ms May replied with one word: “Yes.”

She also told MPs that it would be "an act of gross irresponsibility" for the UK to scrap its nuclear weapons and accused opponents of the UK’s Trident missile system of being "the first to defend the country's enemies".

Previous prime ministers have avoided answering the hypothetical question of whether they would ever press the nuclear button. Sir Geoffrey Howe, who was Foreign Secretary in the closing years of the cold war, said it was a question no prime minister should ever answer directly.

But Ms May knew that the Labour leader was prepared to state his position, which is the opposite of hers. Without being asked, Jeremy Corbyn volunteered the statement that “I’m not making the decision that kills millions of innocent people.”

He added: “I do not believe the threat of mass murder is a legitimate way to go about international relations.”

The decision to stage Monday's vote was made by David Cameron, who sat three rows back saying nothing while his successor addressed the Commons.

Officially, Parliament was being asked to agree to spend up to around £30 billion renewing the four Trident submarines that are equipped with nuclear missiles and warheads. Every hour of the day or night, there is always one submarine patrolling the sea.

Trident was originally bought from the USA by Margaret Thatcher as a last ditch defence in case the armies of the former Warsaw Pact, which was disbanded in 1989, overran Europe.

Since 1989, it has been the official policy of the Labour Party to support the retention of Trident, to which Jeremy Corbyn, as a back bench MP, was consistently opposed.

He announced that he would vote against Trident again, but as he spoke, he was constantly interrupted by Labour MPs who demanded that he should defend the party’s policy instead of giving his own opinion. His response was that there is a review of Labour defence policy being carried out by the newly appointed Shadow Defence Secretary, Clive Lewis.

Theresa May waters down immigration target AGAIN as she says her goal to cut net migration to under 100,000 is only her 'belief' and will 'take some time' to achieve

Further softening of language on immigration target will infuriate Tory MPs
In 2010 Tories said it was a 'goal' to cut net migration to 'tens of thousands'
In 2015 Tory manifesto described the immigration target as an 'ambition'
Yesterday Amber Rudd and Boris Johnson refused to back the policy
Today Theresa May said it was just her 'belief' that migration should be cut

The Government's target to cut net migration to under 100,000 has been watered down yet again after Theresa May said the goal was only her 'belief'.

She warned the pledge - first made in the Conservative party's 2010 election manifesto and supported by her as Home Secretary ever since - would 'take some time' to achieve.

It signals another softening of the Government's policy on immigration.

In the 2010 manifesto the Tories set out their 'goal' to 'take net migration back to the levels of the 1990s - tens of thousands a year, not hundreds of thousands'.

In their 2015 election manifesto the language was softened to an 'ambition'.

And yesterday it appeared the key Conservative party pledge was on the verge of being scrapped altogether after Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson and Home Secretary Amber Rudd, who is in charge of Britain's borders, refused to back the policy.

Rather than going down, net migration rocketed to record levels under David Cameron's six-year premiership and by the end of last year there were more 330,000 more people entering the UK than leaving.

More than half of the numbers came from other EU member states.

The PM of Great Britain decided to threaten Russia with nuclear weapon once again, speaking at a press conference after her visit to Bratislava.

Journalist of the Slovak TV3 channel asked Theresa May whether she was really ready to use nuclear weapon against Russia. As she claimed, 'there was really held a very significant voting in the British Parliament last week on continuation of our nuclear program... During debates there was raised a question whether I was ready to use nuclear weapon as an intimidating deterrent. My answer was 'Yes!'

As Pravda.Ru reported, the British Parliament decided to renew the Trident nuclear deterrent and is ready to spent some dozens billions pounds for it. Today the British army possesses four nuclear submarines, which are capable to carry missiles with thermonuclear and nuclear warheads.

Theresa May has staunchly defended selling arms to Saudi Arabia despite the country facing accusations of war crimes, insisting close ties “keep people on the streets of Britain safe”.

Jeremy Corbyn called on the Prime Minister to halt those sales because of the “humanitarian devastation” caused by a Saudi-led coalition waging war against rebels in Yemen.

The Labour leader spoke out after the Parliamentary committee charged with scrutinising arms exports said it was likely that British weapons had been used to violate international law. The Saudis stand accused of bombing multiple international hospitals run by the charity Médecins Sans Frontières, as well as schools, wedding parties and food factories.

In the Commons, Mr Corbyn linked weapons sales to the ongoing refugee crisis, which he said should be Britain’s “number one concern and our number one humanitarian response”.

He added: “That is why I remain concerned that at the heart of this Government’s security strategy is apparently increased arms exports to the very part of the world that most immediately threatens our security. The British Government continue to sell arms to Saudi Arabia that are being used to commit crimes against humanity in Yemen, as has been clearly detailed by the UN and other independent agencies.”

But, in response, Ms May pointed out she had called on Saudi Arabia to investigate the allegations about Yemen when she met with the kingdom’s deputy crown prince at the recent G20 summit in China.

In March 2014, the Interior Ministry stated that authorities had deported over 370,000 foreign migrants and that 18,000 others were in detention. Thousands of workers were returned to Somalia and other states where they were at risk of human rights abuses, with large numbers also returned to Yemen, in order to open more jobs to Saudi Arabians. Many migrants reported that prior to their deportation they had been packed into overcrowded makeshift detention facilities where they received little food and water and were abused by guards.

The Prime Minister dismissed Mr Corbyn’s suggestion that “what happened in Saudi Arabia was a threat to the safety of people here in the UK”.

Instead, she said: “Actually, what matters is the strength of our relationship with Saudi Arabia. When it comes to counter-terrorism and dealing with terrorism, it is that relationship that has helped to keep people on the streets of Britain safe.”

In a leaked draft report, the Committee on Arms Exports Control echoed both the European Parliament and the Commons International Development Select Committee in calling for arms sales to the autocracy to end.

“The weight of evidence of violations of international humanitarian law by the Saudi-led coalition is now so great, that it is very difficult to continue to support Saudi Arabia,” it said, the BBC’s Newsnight programme reported.

The Government has argued it has not seen evidence of Saudi war crimes which Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said last week m

A new state of the art Holocaust learning centre should be built underground in the heart of Westminster, according to proposals published today.

The Holocaust Memorial Foundation recommended that the facility be erected beneath a new national memorial in Victoria Tower Gardens by the Houses of Parliament.

Both the memorial and learning centre – to include testimony from British survivors and liberators – were key proposals of David Cameron’s Holocaust Commission. He revealed the site of the memorial in January.

Continuing where he left off, Theresa May used prime minister’s questions to announce a new international design competition.

The prime minister said: “We need to ensure that we never forget the horrors of the Holocaust and the lessons that must be learnt from it.

“It is right that we have agreed this National Memorial, next to Parliament in Victoria Tower Gardens. This will ensure that there will be opportunities for young people and others to learn the lessons of the Holocaust and the appalling atrocities that took place.”

Architects and artists will be invited to submit their proposals for the design for the memorial, incorporating the possibly below ground centre. An exhibition of the finalists’ concepts will be held in January, with the winner announced next summer.

Karen Pollock, Chief Executive of the Holocaust Educational Trust, said: “We are delighted that plans for the Holocaust memorial are getting underway and we look forward to seeing the proposed designs. It is right that this country will soon have a permanent fitting memorial to this period of history, particularly given its link to Britain.”

Chief Executive of the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust Olivia Marks-Woldman said: “This will be an exciting opportunity to create a memorial of lasting significance to Britain and to honour the memories of so many. Hundreds of thousands of British people across the UK choose to commemorate the past in their own communities on Holocaust Memorial Day; this physical memorial in such a symbolic site, will provide a focus for national commemoration.”

Foundation chair Sir Peter Bazelgette said the timing of the announcement meant many survivors would be able to witness “the physical embodiment of this nation​’s commitment to remembrance. They can be safe in the knowledge that ​we will continue to stand up against prejudice and hatred.

“The winning design must convey the magnitude of what happened in a meaningful way, inspire reflection and compassion, whilst encouraging future generations to respect and embrace difference.”

Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis said the initiative will “shape how our children, and our children’s children find out about what happened during the Shoah and understand the importance of joining together to ensure it never happens again.

YNET – Op-ed: British Prime Minister Theresa May used her first day in office to eat dinner at the Chief Rabbi of Britian’s house, and has a proven track record of turning MI6’s connection with Israeli intelligence agencies into a strategic asset; May: ‘without its Jews, Britain would not be Britain.’

Three months ago, in her first day on the job as the prime minister of Britain, Theresa May decided to go on a dinner scheduled months prior. In the early evening hours, the prime minister and her husband Philip left 10 Downing Street with their motorcade and made their way to a house in north London to dine with Britain’s Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis.

Only hours earlier, May was kissing hands at Buckingham Palace, becoming the second female prime minister in Britain’s history and the talk of the day. But a commitment must be kept, and May, known as a lady of her word, was sending a message that despite her new high-ranked job—she has no plans of changing.

In the presence of a handful of participants, the May couple had a strictly kosher dinner at the home of Rabbi Mirvis, with whom May has warm relations.

The dinner was scheduled three months prior, when May was still the Home Secretary. No one could have imagined that one referendum could cause such a storm in Britain, leading to the resignation of the prime minister and the appointment of a woman considered a not particularly distinguished minister to one of the most important jobs in the world.

For a few hours, May put aside the arduous and complicated task of forming her government in favor of that dinner.

“The fact she made it to dinner at the height of the preparations and before taking the reins of such an important job, reflects her great desire to maintain her commitments to and appreciation of Britain’s Jewish community,” Rabbi Mirvis said.

May’s close ties with the Jewish community in Britain are not new. In her six years as the Home Secretary—a position that tasks her with the responsibility of Britain’s internal security—May was personally involved in the security of Jewish institutions in the kingdom, particularly in light of the country’s rising anti-Semitism.

May becoming prime minister is very good news for Israel. In fact, there are already some in Britain who have dubbed her the most pro-Israeli prime minister 10 Downing Street has ever seen.

Even if May won’t support the expansion of settlements or break away from the international position on Israel’s presence in the disputed territories, it is safe to assume that she would continue taking a pro-Israeli stance and defend Israel whenever an occasion for such statements arises.

May knows Israel well. Two years ago, shortly before Operation Protective Edge, she visited Israel as Home Secretary. She spoke of her impressions from that visit at an Independence Day event organized by Bnei Akiva UK youth group, where she was the guest of honor.

At the party, she took the stage and made an impassioned speech, praising Israel. “
