RABBI JONATHAN ROMAIN: It is arrogant for people to say, as a matter of principle, that they don t believe in assisted dying. We should never impose our morality for our own satisfaction.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s interview with Oprah Winfrey made headlines in early March 2021, as many were shocked at allegations of the British royal family’s racism and insensitive behavior towards Markle, who is bi-racial. But as this story developed, old stories also resurfaced, including one that demonstrated Harry’s own experience of being criticized for insensitivity and troubling behavior.
In 2005, a 20-year-old Harry was photographed at a party wearing a Nazi costume. The outfit appeared to be drawn from the German Afrika Korps, complete with a swastika armband. The party theme was reportedly “native and colonial” and was also attended by his older brother, Prince William, who wore a homemade lion and leopard outfit.

Rabbi Jonathan Romain, the minister of the Maidenhead synagogue, has told us that the truth is out. That synagogues don’t speak to the vast majority of Jews because they are too prayer-based. He tells us to recognise that the main Hebrew term for synagogue is as a place of meeting and that place of prayer is only the second, and therefore lesser, description.
