As I was watching the re-election of the Speaker in the British House of Commons on Tuesday, I was pleased to see that my three former colleagues on Barnet Council; Matthew Offord, Mike Freer and Jane Ellison had got themselves the best seats in the House, sitting right behind David Cameron. I would like to congratulate them on becoming MPs and hope they enjoy their new jobs and serve their communities well.
I would also like to congratulate Luciana Berger a new Labour MP. I have known Luciana for about 10 years since our time at the University of Birmingham, where we worked well together to represent Jewish students both locally and nationally in NUS. I may even have helped Luciana on the first step of her political career, when I was her campaign manager for her successful election to NUS West Midlands Regional Council. It may not have been her most important election it has helped her to start what I am sure will be a very successful political career. Over the past few years we may not have agreed with each other on all issues but I am sure she will be one of Labour's few good MPs and one day could become their first female leader.
So now that I know four MPs well am I part of the British establishment?

Man you your audicity beggars belief, a sheer waste of taxpayers cash educating you at Birmingham University.did you lose your sense of morality and principles when you left the Ghettoes and slums in Barnet or too embarassed to be an Israeli these days. Which side in a hyperthetical conflict would you choose. I do remember the history of the hotel that led to the creation of your homeland. It's a bit amazing that an academic failure like Freer gets to Parliament while you sift sand
