The Board of Deputies of British Jews is hosting a debate for the Jewish community on Sunday May 15 ahead of the referendum on European Union membership.
Ilford North MP Wes Streeting will speak for the Remain campaign and Daniel Hannan, MEP for South East England, for the Leave campaign at the hustings in central London.
Board of Deputies President Jonathan Arkush said: “Britain’s future relationship with the European Union is of keen interest to us across the community. While the Board will not be taking a position, we have organised a landmark debate for the Jewish community, which will be addressed by two eloquent and passionate advocates for the Remain and Leave campaigns in Wes Streeting and Daniel Hannan. This is a wonderful opportunity for everybody to hear the arguments first hand and contribute to the conversation.”
The debate can be watched live from 12:30 here:
