Sunday Jewish Radio hosted an hour-long Question Time-style panel debate at the Jewish Living Expo at Wembley Stadium last week.

The diverse panel featured TV scriptwriter and author Ivor Baddiel, Mitzvah Day creator Laura Marks, chair of the London Jewish Forum Adrian Cohen, editor of the Jewish News Richard Ferrer and Sunday Jewish Radio presenter Jon Kaye.

The panel was chaired by former BBC broadcaster, Clive Roslin.

Questions from the audience included: Is the new Chief Rabbi right to attend Limmud? Should we worry about the size of the Jewish community in the UK? Is it time to abandon the word ‘Yid’ at Spurs? Are Jewish schools divisive?
