Politics Matter
Fifty years in politics Delivered 'Sure Start' Fought Corbyn & antisemitism Loves Israel: Hates Bibi
As Margaret Hodge retires from Parliament, this immigrant child of immigrant parents reflects on the fights, furies and highlights of half a century at the sharp end of political life. From trashing the BNP in Barking when Leader of the Council to calling out Corbyn as a “Fucking anti-Semite and racist” in
Parliament, Dame Margaret has helped change the political landscape.
Her parents were secular Jews. She has never joined a synagogue. Yet her commitment to Israel affairs and to fighting antisemitism is legendary.
We at Abraham Events are privileged to be among
the first to hear her story, no holds barred, after her moving valedictory address to Parliament which provoked tears and sustained applause on her retirement.
