Two Jewish candidates have been unveiled in the May's European elections on opposite sides of the divide - one for Nigel Farage's Brexit Party and the other for the pro-second referendum Change UK.
As his candidacy was revealed on Tuesday, Brexiteer Lance Forman said “a red line was crossed” when Theresa May invited Jeremy Corbyn – “the Marxist leader of an institutional antisemitic party” – to 10 Downing street for talks on Brexit, “to plot the future of our relationship with Europe, because she couldn’t figure it out for herself.”
Mr Forman, owner of H. Forman and Son, the smoked salmon business empire owned by his family for four generations, called his party leader Mr Farage “formidable”, describing him as having “devoting 25 years of his life… he has done more than anyone in Britain to awaken the spirit of freedom and democracy.”
