Ping Pong IV : Agudist vs Zionist

LH: This article was published by the Evening Standard on March 16th. you would have thought that a Jewish writer would not be so scaremongering about visiting Israel, rather than following Home Office protocol.
MS: By what measure do you term this writer 'Jewish'?

LH: Barry Cryer is not Jewish, though many people think he is. My wife's cousin (not on this list) actually works in the BBC news team, and he is anti-Israel, and didn't even bother about a minyan when his mother died 2-3 years ago (buried in Rainham).
