Conors Christmas and Chanukahmessage to Bournemouth
West,Alderney & Branksome East
I had the great privilege of visiting Number 10 Downing Street
onWednesday evening this week to attend a reception to celebrate
theJewish Festival of Chanukah. At the reception, which was hosted
bythe Chancellor George Osbourne and the Education SecretaryMichael
Gove, we had the great honour of listening to a thoughtprovoking
speech by the Chief Rabbi.
The Jewish people have suffered terrible persecution throughout
thecenturies and often over that time Britain has offered them
refuge.Indeed our own area has a large Jewish community. In
reflecting onthe words of the Chief Rabbi and looking at all that
is going on in theworld today I hope that 2012 will see moves
towards reconciliationand increased tolerance.
When I think of the treatment of peopleof Jewish faith I cannot
help now alsothinking of the plight of so manyChristian communities
in parts of theworld where they are killed andsuppressed for the
simple expressionof their faith. I was humbled this yearto meet
Pope Benedict in Rome andhave the chance to talk to him aboutthis
very important issue.
In these difficult times I believe more than ever that it is
important tostress our shared humanity and basic values and reject
those whoseek to divide on the basis of faith, colour, gender or
any other factorthat puts divisions between us.
I would like to end this year by wishing all the residents of
the areathat I have the honour to serve in Parliament a happy
Chanukah or ahappy Christmas. And to those of no faith I wish a
happy and restfulbreak and a very fulfilled new year.
