Snip:
The Green Party of England and Wales voted for the first time to declare Zionism a form of racism at its party conference in Brighton on 4 October.
Party members voted on Sunday to pass the motion, which also calls for the establishment of a single democratic Palestinian state with equal rights for all ethnic and religious groups.
It also recognizes the Palestinian people’s inalienable right to resist occupation and achieve self-determination “by all available means under international law.”
Previously, the Green Party supported a two-state solution calling for the establishment of a Palestinian state in the occupied West Bank and Gaza alongside the state of Israel in the remainder of occupied Palestine.
Good progress. It shouldn’t be considered bold, but in this forsaken island anything that isn’t barely washed up hitlerism is at least frowned upon
I haven’t been following the green party too closely, but I seem to remember there being some drama about pro Palestine candidates recently? Glad the party could clarify its stance correctly if nothing else.
