Cameron: We (the UK) must stay in EU to influence Europe’s approach to Israel

The Prime Minister tells guests at Jewish Care dinner to reject ‘divisive and intolerant’ Leave campaign

ed note–WHAM, BAM, THANK YOU MA’AM.

And there you have it folks. The UK must remain in the EU not because it is in the best interests of the British people (whom Cameron at least presumes to represent and serve) but rather so that the UK can remain I$rael’s eyes, ears, teeth, and claws in making sure that the other countries tow the line vis a’ vis the Jewish state and her incessant, predatory, and Apocalyptic demands.

But remember, despite this very blatant, painfully-honest admission on the part of Cameron, the government of the UK which he heads is not ‘unduely influenced’ by powerful organized Jewish interests. That is an ‘anti-Semitic conspiracy theory’ and an ‘old canard’ propagated by neo-Nazis and Islamic terrorists. Jews don’t wield excessive and disproportionate power over governments, but rather DEM MOOZLEMS, and all of it headed by the Saudis.

Times of Israel

David Cameron has insisted Britain can only impact Europe’s approach to Israel by remaining inside the EU as he called on the community to roundly reject the “divisive and intolerant” campaign of Nigel Farage.

The prime minister used his only address to Anglo-Jewry of the referendum to insist that the country’s influence is “enhanced” rather than diminished by being part of the Union on issues from the economy to climate change to preventing Iran getting the bomb.

He told Jewish Care’s annual dinner: “When we’re fighting terrorism and Islamist extremism are we better doing that out on our own or fighting together with our European partners. When Europe is discussing its attitude towards Israel do you want Britain – Israel’s greatest friends – in there opposing boycotts or do you want us outside the room, powerless to affect the conversation.”

Cameron spoke of his “love” of the country and described Jewish function as some of the most patriotic he’d attended. Invoking his predecessor Winston Churchill, he said the wartime leader chose to fight Hitler alongside allies, rather than operate alone, when he took the “greatest decision in our history”.

He also launched a blistering attack on the UKIP leader over the ‘Breaking point’ poster he unveiled last week as part of the campaign to leave the EU. It featured a line of immigrants passing through Europe and was condemned as having echoes of 1930s imagery of George Osborne.

“When I look at that poster which Nigel Farage stood in front of for the leave campaign I see the opposite of everything that makes our country great,” Cameron told the more than 1,000 guests at the Grosvenor House Hotel. “I’m proud that Britain is home to people who fled persecution – including those who fled the Nazis and from Russians pogroms. We should say to Farage and his campaign of division and intolerance ‘we don’t want your vision of Britain, we don’t want you’re selling, you’re not selling the kind of country we want for ourselves or our grandchildren – and I say we should vote decisively to reject it on Thursday.”

While his diary was in a state of flux during the final build up to the referendum, Cameron drew huge applause for saying the dinner was one engagement he was “always going to keep”.

On the day the House Of Commons was recalled to pay tribute to murdered MP Jo Cox, the prime minister reflected on her husband Brendan’s call to oppose hate in her memory.

“Wherever we find hatred we should drive it out of our politics and drive it out of our communities. No one understands this better than our Jewish community.”

Reflecting on the rise of anti-Semitism, he said: “I hate that this scourge has returned to this world and specifically to our country. I promise wherever we see antisemitism – from politicians who should know better to abusive graffiti daubed on synagogues and homes – I will do everything I can to drive it out of this country. For as long as I’m prime
Minister you’ve got that extra £10m I promised to CST every year for as long as necessary.”

In a wide-ranging speech, he also hailed Israel’s transformation from “dessert to city” as “One of most remarkable stories of the modern democratic world” and reiterated that his commitment to her security is “non-negotiable”.

“I will always stand up for right and obligation of Israel to defend its citizens – a right enshrined in international law, in natural justice and in fundamental morality. I’ll never stand by when people talk about boycotts or Israel comes under attack from rockets or terror tunnels.”

Cameron heaped praise on the staff and volunteers of Jewish Care as the ‘best of Jewish and the best of British.

‘I love you. All of you individually as I have a referendum to win. But I love Jewish Care and all you do. You don’t leave things to government. You help communities . You bring people together to play their part. That is the big society in action.”

Ahead of a campaign video featuring three service users including 99-year-old Millie – who said a Jewish care club had given her a lifeline to get out and social aide – as a “complete inspiration”.

Jewish Care President and labour peer Lord Levy described the charity – hailed the PM as “a true friend to our community and our beloved state of Israel” and the charity – which helps 10,000 people weekly – as “the Backbone of our community”.

Chairman Stephen Zimmerman announced that permission had been secured for a new care campus in Redbridge. He stressed that £15m must be raised annually to continue its work, with an additional £4m required by 2020.
