Rishi Sunak laid it thick when he left the rooms that had housed most prime ministers since King George II offered them in 1732 to Robert Walpole. “One of the most remarkable things about Britain is just how unremarkable it is that two generations after my grandparents came here with little, I could become prime minister, and that I could watch my two young daughters light Diwali candles on the steps in Downing Street.”
Sunak was the first practising Hindu to live in No 10. Om Shanti! He had one Diwali and two Holis there. Now let’s count Keir Starmer’s Rosh Hashanas and Yom Kippurs. Shalom!
Starmer is no Jew. By birth he is a Christian; by faith he is an atheist, but goes to synagogues with his Jewish wife (better do, for shalom at home). Enough for the media in Israel to call for a kosher party, just as we Indians had ours 20 months ago.
