Stuart Polak has been the director of Conservative Friends of Israel since 1989 and is partner in two Westminster based lobbying firms - Westminster Connection and Kesher Strategy, as a result of which he is known as an 'effective behind-the-scenes lobbyist.'[1]He is listed in the Telegraph's "The Right's 100 Most Influential" in 2007[2] and the "Top 100 most influential Right-wingers" 2010,[3] as well as the Jewish Chronicle's "Power 100" in 2008,[1]

According to Polak's Telegraph profile:

Polak regularly takes leading Conservatives on trips to Israel to educate them. The sceptics invariably return, if not indoctrinated, fully onside. A familiar face around the corridors of the Houses of Parliament, he has done more than most to promote Israel’s case to the right of British politics.[3]

According to his Kesher Strategy bio, Polak has led over 50 delegations of politicians to Israel.[4]
