Mayor of London Boris Johnson was the guest speaker at the Jewish Museum’s annual gala dinner. “It is vital to remember what the Jewish community has done for London and it is also vital to remember the seneseless threats that Jews have faced throughout history,” he told the 200 guests at the Mansion House in the City of London. The event raised £200,000 towards the £10 million rebuild of the museum’s Camden Town premises, due to reopen early next year
