if you can't read the telegraph website, it might be because you're not registered. Jamaissur

We try not to link to sources which require registration. Jayjg ^(talk) 19:28, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Are there any sources that the donation was intended to be kept secret? Normally it would have to appear in the audited accounts, see http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4821702.stm.

I can't help but feel the entire article was created solely to show off the cash for peerages scandal. -- Heptor _talk 21:37, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Well, yes, of course, and to try to link that scandal to alleged Jews, or people Jamaissur thinks have Jewish-sounding names. Jayjg ^(talk) 22:29, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Hmm, judging from the rest of Jamaissur's contributions[1], you may be right on that too. -- Heptor _talk 23:00, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] member of jewish-british community

There are also some big property magnates with Jewish backgrounds, including Gerald Ronson of Heron International, Minerva boss Andrew Rosenfeld and British Land's John Ritblat.[2]

Having a "Jewish background" doesn't mean you're a Jew; it could mean you have a Jewish grandfather, and even your source is careful to distinguish between "Jews" and those with "Jewish backgrounds". Unlike the Nazis, Wikipedia doesn't go by the "Jewish grandparent" rule; instead it goes by the reliable source rule. Find one stating he is a Jew. Jayjg ^(talk) 22:19, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NSPCC

a question for you, jay: why is his link with the nspcc not trivia, when his link with Jewish Care would be cut on that ground (or another)? jamaissur ^{lemon or lime?}

He's the head of the NSPCC campaign. Are you ready to write a proper article yet? Jayjg ^(talk) 23:10, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

if you'd stop interfering, yes. if he were head of a jewish care campaign, would you note that? of course you wouldn't, just as you wouldn't note that lord levy was (and possibly still is) the chief fundraiser for jc. some might worry about the effects on your karma of all this wotsit, jay. lucky, i'm not a hinduist. jamaissur ^{lemon or lime?}
