Meet Lord David Wolfson KC - Shadow Attorney General: Law, Antisemitism, and the Case for Israel

Lord David Wolfson of Tredegar KC is a powerful and principled voice in British public life and one of the most articulate defenders of the Jewish community in the UK today.

In this special episode of Humans of The Fed (brought to you together with Magen David Adom UK) listen to Lord Wolfson discuss all things politics, antisemitism and Israel with Raphi Bloom.

As Shadow Attorney General, Lord Wolfson has spoken with clarity, courage and deep personal conviction in the House of Lords on the sharp rise in antisemitism, the safety of British Jews, and the need to confront extremist ideologies at their source. He has also been a consistent and thoughtful advocate for Israel, challenging double standards in public discourse and explaining why Israel is so often uniquely targeted, drawing on both legal reasoning and lived experience. His interventions have resonated far beyond Parliament, making him one of the most compelling speakers on these issues nationally.

Alongside this public role, Lord Wolfson is one of the most sought‑after commercial Silks at the Bar, regularly instructed in the most complex and high‑value disputes and appearing in international arbitration tribunals around the world.

He served as Minister of Justice in the House of Lords from 2020–2022 and continues to play a leading role in public and professional life, including as Chair of the Football Regulatory Authority, a Bencher of Inner Temple, and a trustee or director of a number of charities and organisations.
