			<title><![CDATA[ ‘Every day is Mother’s Day without Charlotte’ ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ Martin Brass remembers the awful moment he discovered his wife Charlotte had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma as if it were yesterday. It is nearly five years since Charlotte’s sudden death, which came soon after their younger son, Sam, was born in 2005. Martin was left to raise their five-month-old and two-and-a-half-year-old. For them, this Sunday’s Mother’s Day will not mean the same as it does for most children of their age. ]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[ Making the Grade ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ The emotions felt by thousands of primary school pupils and their parents on Monday ranged from joy and relief to frustration and disappointment. After months of patiently waiting, this was the day they finally found out if their 10 or 11-year-old had been accepted into their secondary school of choice. 
For new Jewish secondary school pupils, the coming academic year offers more options than ever before with September's highly-anticipated opening of JCoSS secondary school in Barnet. Meanwhile, following the recent Supreme Court verdict on its admissions policy, JFS in Kenton will offers places to Jewish children from all spheres of the community.

			<title><![CDATA[ Audacious Dubai Hit Was A Morally Justifiable Success ]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[ The recent killing of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh by agents using forged passports has provoked indignation from the British establishment. The prime minister has promised a full investigation while the media has lined up to condemn Israel.
