Jewish people worried about Corbyn attend Jewish Agency aliyah meetings in London

He added: “In every meeting I have had in London, [Labour] is mentioned, but it wasn’t like people were panicking. People are not fleeing… Maybe it has advanced their planning.

“It has increased the number of people interested. People are taking the next steps. But this is not a situation like Russia or Venezuela where they just want to get out, thank God.”

Ms Golan added: “It was a very effective way of reaching out to people who were thinking about [making Aliyah] anyway. Obviously the people coming to such meetings already have connections to Israel – such as family.

“In my experience, of working in Aliyah for many years, there is never just one reason why people make Aliyah. It never works like this unless, God forbid, in a rescue operation. And this is not that scenario.”

The number of Britons making Aliyah ranges between roughly 500 and 850 per year – although the period between January and November this year saw an 11 per cent rise.

On the financial side, Mr Monk said that the abolition of inheritance tax in Israel was “a factor”, but added that the relative weakness of the pound to the shekel is an obstacle to prospective olim – particularly older ones.

He said: “When I made Aliyah in the mid-1990s, it was 8.7 shekels to the pound. Now it is 4.50 – a huge, huge drop.

“That’s mainly down to the strength of the Israeli economy. The UK’s economic situation is also a concern.”
