(Telegraph-UK) Ian McCartney, the Labour Party chairman, caused outrage by describing Jewish MP Oliver Letwin, the shadow chancellor, as a "21st century Fagin," comparing him to the loathed villain in Charles Dickens's Oliver Twist, during a speech to Scottish Labour MPs Saturday. Jewish leaders said that the slur was the height of irresponsibility when there were growing fears over a rise of anti-Semitism in Britain, which has 280,000 Jews. Rabbi Dr. Jonathan Romain, a spokesman for Reform Synagogues, said: "Consciously or otherwise, [the remark] is a reference to Mr. Letwin's face rather than his politics." 2004-03-01 00:00:00Full Article
