If only there was a party that already had this as policy...

I am in a long line of antizionist Jews who political opponents try to make people hate.
But I wont be quiet, not on criticism of Israel, nor on tackling the extreme wealth and poverty pay that both the Tories and now Labour have overseen in office.
🇬🇧 “Is it now the Labour position that a genocide is not racist?”
Green Party leader Zack Polanski confronted Conservative and Labour politicians at the London Assembly on Thursday after Conservative Susan Hall introduced a motion condemning the Greens’ decision to define Zionism as racism.
Hall called the Green Party’s position “abhorrent” and argued it threatened Jewish Londoners.
Polanski, who is Jewish, accused Hall of weaponizing antisemitism and challenged Labour members over their government’s continued military support for Israel amid the genocide in Gaza.
The Assembly passed Hall’s motion 19–3, with just the three Green members voting against it.
Great seeing the Green Party continuing to climb despite the torrent of media backlash and cross party attacks. People want something different and are tired of not seeing the change that was promised. Its time to tax wealth, protect the environment and uphold international law. – at Bristol, England

This is the same Labour Government letting B52 bombers take off from British soil to bomb Iran - while people here at home pay the price of Trump's illegal war in spiking energy prices.
Warm words about ending the war won't cut it - Burnham must end the UK's participation.

Judges: debating lawfulness of Labour's proscription of Palestine Action
Police: arresting grandmas because of Labour's proscription of Palestine Action
Labour: still supporting Israel's genocide in Gaza, and wasting everyone's time with their proscription of Palestine Action

Blair lied to the UK public & manufactured consent for the killing of 1million Iraqis.
He was quoted “I am proud to be a friend of Israel” in 2006 during the settler colony’s Operation Summer Rains killed 400 Palestinians in Gaza.
And this “Blairite” accuses others of racism?

You have to be joking. There is absolutely no way Abdul El-Sayed would have been allowed to stand as a Labour MP - and most likely would have been kicked out of the Party years ago.
The Labour Party blocked Faiza Shaheen standing as a candidate for sharing a skit by Jon Stewart and talking about her own experience of Islamophobia.
When you vilify, smear and demonise good people who refuse to let your hate define them, other good people don't stand by.
They stand up and vote for hope over fear.
Congratulations @AbdulElSayed 🎉
I guess putting the interests of Israel over your own residents and defending arming a genocide over bins didn't really work in your favour. There's a lesson here about acting in the best interests of residents rather than blindly accepting orders from offices in London. – at Bristol, England

Proscribing Palestine Action was a dreadful mistake. It has wasted police time, energy, opportunities and taxpayers' money.
Not to mention all the innocent peaceful protesters who have experienced unpleasant treatment by the police.
Time to unproscribe PalAct @andyburnham
A grave misuse of anti-terrorism powers
Today, the Supreme Court begins a landmark 2-day hearing on the Home Office's 2025 decision to outlaw the protest group Palestine Action.

Big wins for Democrats from Texas to South Carolina to Kansas and the House flips. The billionaire class and their puppets threw everything at this and failed. No amount of AIPAC money or trillionaire money could beat the people. Time for investigations and accountability. – at Bristol, England

Congratulations Abdul El-Sayed. Congratulations to everyone celebrating victories across the United States.
These are victories for communities standing up to billionaires & the media empires they own.
Around the world, we've all got a lot of work to do. Let's go! ✊🏽

Quite revealing that Labour will work happily with the Tories or even Reform but are determined to turn Green Party opposition to a genocide into a local political football.
Andy Burnham. Keir Starmer. The Labour Party still feels very Peter Mandleson.

🟢 EXCL: Understand Green cllrs on Havant Council have submitted a motion of no confidence in the Labour leader after Labour pulled out of the power sharing deal over the ZIR motion. The Havant Greens had said they recognised problematic elements of the motion but denied it was anti semitic and said they could not ask the party leadership to reject it as it was voted for democratically by members.
Havant was ran by a “rainbow coalition” of Labour, Greens & LDs.
Current make up of HBC:
Reform - 9
Labour - 7
Conservative- 5
LD - 5
Greens - 5
Independent- 4
Plus one seat vacant due to by elex

Labour stand in total disgrace today. Ed Miliband’s fake apology can go in the bins that probably will now go uncollected. Collapsing local partnerships to play politics and making support for Israel ‘a red line’, a red line we didn’t impose on our councillors for Labour literally arming a genocide.
Councillor Al Al-Maghrabi 🇬🇧🇵🇸💚 retweeted
Labour are trying to bully everyone into defending Genocide.
They made a phony apology, continue to sell arms licences to Israel and whip their MPs to defend it at all costs.
We will not cower. We will not be bullied from speaking the truth.

The witch hunt against Zack Polanski and those standing against apartheid is a TEST for Britain: a Corbyn moment or a Macklemore moment?
Councillor Al Al-Maghrabi 🇬🇧🇵🇸💚 retweeted
Much of the media hate that the Green Party want to tax the super rich & stand up for peace around the world.
They hate that we call out vast majority of media owned by a few billionaires who constantly distract.
One of the best things you can do?
