Best Answer

Jews in the religious sense were regarded as outsiders and were subject to various disabilities till 1890. However, their position improved during Queen Victoria's long reign. In 1858 they were allowed to vote on the same basis as others, in 1871 they were allowed to study at Oxford and Cambridge ... Jews who converted to the Church of England, such as Benjamin Disraeli, were not subject to disabilities, but there was often some prejudice against them.
