 ANDREW FEINSTEIN: ‘Why I’m standing against Keir Starmer in his constituency’

“Starmer is offering us the same as the Tories.

“Across the UK, millions of children live in poverty — 12,000 under-16s in the borough of Camden alone.

“Labour says it can’t afford to take steps to lift them out of poverty through measures such as scrapping the two-child benefit cap.

“I will work for more and improved social housing, funding for our public services, and an end to the main parties’ support for genocide …” (says  ANDREW FEINSTEIN)

Shabbat (the Sabbath) is the Jewish day of rest. It runs from Friday evenings to Saturday evenings every week …

“Jewish law requires Jews to refrain from various acts of ‘work’ on Shabbat.

“The prohibited acts of ‘work’ include travelling (other than by foot), cooking, writing, carrying, switching on and off electricity [and] using a telephone …

“Those who strictly observe Shabbat will therefore not work on Shabbat in any circumstances …

“Once Shabbat has begun, those that observe it strictly cannot work or travel, and so some Jewish staff will need to leave work early on Fridays …”
