Pesach Message from Jeremy Hunt

It is a symbol of how Theresa May is being sidelined that a Passover message is being circulated by the Foreign Secretary instead of her.  Surely it would be more usual for a religious group within the UK to be addressed by the national leader?  Although there is also the question as to whether politicians should really send out these seasonal messages at all.

I also found the message itself rather odd.  As with other messages of this kind, he spends time telling his audience some Passover basics about Pharaohs and so on.  Doesn't an audience of Jewish people already know all that stuff?
