Michael Levy, Baron Levy

thumb|Michael Levy, Baron Levy Michael Abraham Levy, Baron Levy (born 11 July 1944) is a Labour peer, friend of Tony Blair and a fundraiser for the British Labour party. Quotes about Michael Levy "Undoubtedly the notional leader of British Jewry." The Jerusalem Post "So, to borrow the phrase Tony Blair used about himself during the first row over New Labour's funding, I regard Lord Levy as 'a pretty straight sort of guy'." Dominic Lawson, The Daily Mail, 17th July 2006. "There is a general feeling, and it is increasingly sensitive, that this is all about 'get the Jew'. I do not play the anti-Semitic card. But within my immediate community, and the Jewish community generally, they are sensitive to the fact that this is becoming all about one Jew." Rabbi Yitzchak Schochet speaks out on Levy's behalf over "Cash for honours", The Daily Telegraph, 9th March 2007.
