It was good for business. There's a cliche that Jews deal in the best jewelry. He deals in diamonds and his shop was in a particular area where Jewish jewelry shops were situated.
There's a moral to this story Del Boy but for the life of me I can't find it!
Because, in London, the diamond trade is very, very much a Jewish trade - Hatton Garden is near 100% Jewish run; Doug pretending to be Jewish would have enabled him to do business a lot easier as it would have opened up a lot of otherwise closed doors.
shareWhy are jews never accused of discrimination?
shareBecause for the most part, Jewish business owners and leaders have been progressive and have opened up markets that are more racially and culturally inclusive as opposed to White Christian enterprises which tend to push for cronyism, peerage (Aristocracy), and institutional racism.
I"m not picking on whites but since you're most likely talking about White Jews I use them as a contrast. There are other cases of discrimination exhibited by other cultures such as Chinese, Japanese, East Indian, Turkish, Muslim, and African that discriminate as well.
LOL WHAT? Jews are probably the most insular, aggressively self serving people in the world. They employ rampant nepotism and do whatever they can to further the success of their group. And they do so openly because of anyone says anything they are immediately branded an anti semite.
shareThis is correct. They are 2nd only to blacks for crying fowl over any perceived slight, while completely ignoring their own racist behavior.
