There's a long history in our texts of brothers who disagree. Cain and Abel, Isaac and Ishmael, Jacob and Esau. Clive and Michael Lawton have decided to carry on this noble tradition, even if in a more moderate manner. A murder is not expected.

Michael, who was born in London, has been living in Germany for nearly 40 years. He was a co-founder of Gescher Lamassoret in Cologne and is now active in the Oranienburger Straße synagogue in Berlin.

Co-founder of Limmud, Clive was its Executive Director for many years and was instrumental in helping Limmud come to Germany (as well as to most of its current 90+ locations).
Extremely proud of his big brother, who does nearly everything he can do, but better(!), he looks forward to another opportunity for them to disagree in public.
Clive was honoured by the late Queen for services to education and the Jewish community. He has been a High School principal, a governor of the Metropolitan Police in London, an adviser to the UK government on Race Equality issues, Chair of a hospital board and has broadcast and published widely, with about a dozen books to his name.
He is currently Executive Chair of the Commonwealth Jewish Council, a Presiding Justice (Magistrate), chairs Health Service tribunals and still occasionally continues with his worldwide educational development consultancy work. He is considered a leading light in the field of inter-faith affairs.
