Ed Miliband, a Jewish British leader of the Labor Party, was called a “card carrying Marxist” and “unfit to govern, ” by Sir John Ritblat. Who knows if Ritblat actually asked Miliband to show him his card he is said to carry, but the 79 year old businessman, who has a profitable property firm, is firmly against Miliband. The Huffington Post speculates that a possible reason for this is that Sir Ritblat has donated a over a hundred thousand pounds to the Tory Party, so obviously, he doesn’t want to have egg on his face in case Miliband fares well.
Harold Tillman, who was the son of a Jewish tailor in South London and grew to be a fashion entrepreneur, head of Jaeger and Aquascutum, and chair of the British Fashion Council, also had harsh words concerning Miliband. He told the Daily Mail, “I am only just realising how socialist Miliband is. I am shocked at this, but Labour sounds as if they want to stamp on aspiration.”

Lord Stuart Rose talks about the “steady drum beat of anti-business policies, ” of Miliband, and of course this has nothing to do with the fact that the Marks & Spencer’s head gave David Cameron a polka dotted dress for his wife after they had sold out, according to Huffington Post. Miliband had ungenerous words of his own for PM Cameron and his friends; recently Miliband said Cameron was a dodgy PM who protected tax dodgers.
