Victoria Starmer is the new First Lady of the United Kingdom and she is Jewish. As is to be expected, the Israel-hating antiemetic trolls around the world are not happy that the wife of newly elected British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is Jewish.

The wife of new British Prime Minister Keir Starmer was born Victoria Alexander. Her father was Jewish and her mother converted when they married.

Keir Starmer is not Jewish. However, he and Victoria are raising their children as Jews. They are known to attend a British Liberal Synagogue, which is affiliated with Reform/Liberal Judaism.

The new British Prime Minister once told the Guardian about his in-laws, “Half of the family are Jewish, they’re either here or in Israel.”

Keir Starmer also told the publication that he and his wife are “very keen” for their children to understand their Jewish heritage.

This does not sit well with the Israel haters around the world, who are all basically anti-Semites. One such so called influencer Maram Susli, who calls herself Syrian Girl online, showed her true colors in a post on Twitter, “Britain’s new leader Keir Starmer is married to a Jewish woman. Kamala Harris is married to a Jewish man. Biden’s son is married to a Jewish woman.] Donald Trump’s daughter is married to a Jewish man. Hillary Clinton’s daughter is married to a Jewish man. Just how many Jews are there in the world? I don’t believe when they say it’s been 15 million since the 1950s.”

Another avowed anti-Semite with more than one million followers on Twitter posted simply the “UK has fallen.”

Victoria Starmer works for Britain’s public National Health Service – the NHS. Keir Starmer explained that her work helps him to better understand one of the UK’s most important public services saying, “I get a direct line of sight on a daily basis into the challenges of the NHS and the morale of the staff.”

He husband also once explained why Victoria Starmer kept a low public profile while he served as leader of the opposition as well as during the recent British elections saying, “We took the decision that whilst I was out and about on the road, we wanted to create the environment where he could study calmly in ordinary circumstances.”

Keir Starmer once said of his wife Victoria Starmer in an interview with Piers Morgan, “Vic is beautiful, she is grounded, we share values and we laugh together.”
