. @margarethodge pretending @charlotte2153 doesn& #39;t exist is entirely typical of how the self-appointed gatekeepers of the "Jewish community" pretend left-wing Jews don& #39;t exist.
It& #39;s important to note that this isn& #39;t accidental: Hodge has been Charlotte& #39;s colleague for the better part of a year. This is a deliberate, cynical strategy to falsely homogenise Jewish opinion.
It& #39;s the same with the Board, which claims to speak for all Jews when, just to start with, around 20% of Britain& #39;s Jews are Charedi & not affiliated with the Board. Many more remain institutionally unaffiliated precisely bc most mainstream Jewish institutions are right-wing.
Worth referring back to the eighth (and imo the most sinister) of the Board& #39;s 10 pledges, which actively attempt to marginalise left-wing Jewish groups by suggesting they are not "representative".
