Effy is the top boy, the big cheese, the numero uno with the lovely Leah for support and cheerleading. Stevie Klingon, Philip Kneidelsoup, Slinky Linksy, Eddie Isex and Paul Goblin are mere nobodies by comparison to this dynamic duo. I see no debate on this one.

He is streets ahead of Stephen Kliner. I'll bet Kliner wouldn't get more than 2 votes if the community was to vote about this and the 2 votes would be Kliner himself and his missus. What is Philip Mendelsohn doing? Today's back page of the Jewish Telegraph carries a report that the Board of Deputies are coming to Glasgow in January. Who cares? Firstly, only some members of the Rep Council and Scojec are really important, and Paul is streets ahead of every one of them. Secondly, we don't need the President of the Board to come up here and tell us we still have an important place in UK Jewry. We have cousin Paul, on the Board, Mr Mendelsohn so we know we are important. A visit by the Board does not signify anything about our place as a community in UK Jewry. Do we not have more confidence on the importance of communal life here in Glasgow than some sort of consolation being taken because the Board want a January jolly to Glasgow. Its time Paul was made President here. We need someone big enough for the job and cousin Edlin is certainly well qualified on that account. Good morning.

Why don't you do a simple test. Draw two columns and on the left list all Stephen's communal achievements and on the right list Paul's. Its what we Americans call a no-brainer.

He also runs the Board of Deputies and the Glasgow Jewish Representative Council. And of course he advises Governments on Holocaust reparations. If Comrade Putin couldn't understand what Paul had to tell him I would have thought that this reflects badly on Comrade Putin. I am sure that our community should organise a Sunday afternoon talk in with Paul so he can advise us all how to be as successful as him and as big a personality. I don't know who could chair it though. I'm not sure Glasgow has anyone of the same stature to sit on the same stage. Cousin Paul advises Presidents, Kings, Queens,and Prime Ministers.

Putin (retd). A private meeting took place in Moscow recently between myself and Deputy Paulus Edlinsky of the Kilmarnock Dental Association. I couldn't get my teeth into what he was saying while he noticed that I had a big mouth. It's a start. The following communication has just been received by me from Comrade V. Putin (retd).

Does anyone know that he met the Russian President recently and told him all about his important work with the Glasgow Jewish Representative Council. The Russian President was well impressed and assured Paul that whenever advice is required he will phone him immediately. Paul will also be advising Barak Obama and President Sarkozy in the near future because he is without doubt a brilliant communicator who is destined for huge things.

On the one hand I think that Israeli politicians need to realise that ordering their army to attack civilian areas has potential ramifications in the future for them personally. However, on the other hand I know that life for Israelis is very complicated and politicians have to act as they see fit in the defence of the Israeli people. Why is life so complicated? I keep getting stuck on the fence. I can’t decide where I stand on this.

I wouldn't advocate arresting people for supporting JNF. I would have thought public censure would be sufficient punishment for supporting this organisation. Any Israeli politician unsure what to do please contact Mr David Links ( no relation ) for useless advice on how to support Israel properly. Everything David tells you please ignore because you would be better advised to think for yourself rather than spouting nonsense about " my country right or wrong " Tzipi Livni could have been arrested if she had turned up at a JNF conference in London.
