Labour slammed for using picture of bread in their Passover message when Jews are forbidden from eating it

Labour's Twitter account had a picture with the words Happy Passover and images of the Star of David, wine and a loaf of bread - a food that is never eaten during PassoverLABOUR faced ridicule yesterday for illustrating its Passover message online with a loaf of bread – the food Jewish people are forbidden from eating during the religious festival.

The Labour Party failed to recognise that Jewish people are forbidden from eating bread during Passover, and images of the Star of David, a cup of wine and a loaf of bread. Phil Rosenberg, public affairs director of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, wrote: “Which major political party would include a picture of bread in their Passover message? Passover being a festival in which bread is forbidden to Jews. Yep, you guessed it. Labour.

Labour will scrap Sats and let teachers teach, vows Jeremy CorbynParty leader says he will relieve pressure so schools can deliver rich and varied curriculum The tests to see that you learned are a part of the problem. A larger part is the actual curriculum which assumes that a scholarly education is superior to learning a trade. We have more jobs open which don't require a four-year degree, yet we push a college mentality on kids. Abolish League Tables while you're at it. I'd happily see the year six sats abolished, my daughter's school insisted parents had to pay for revision and work books, 25 books! They started sats work in September and only stopped as Sats began cue nervous breakdowns
