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.
πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ β€œIs 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 β€œabhorrent” 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.

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.
🚨 WATCH: Andy Burnham says the Democratic landslide in the US midterms means the world now has an opportunity to end the Iran war β€œThat’s what the voters, in my view, are saying in the United States”

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
BREAKING: 25 people have been arrested outside the Supreme Court in London ahead of a hearing challenging the ban on Palestine Action.

Flipping the story in London. With a sign which says "I support genocide. I oppose Palestine Action" she gets no problems from the English police.

Blair lied to the UK public & manufactured consent for the killing of 1million Iraqis. He was quoted β€œI 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 β€œBlairite” 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 πŸŽ‰

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. @TheGreenParty @PSCupdates @DefendOurJuries @AmnestyUK @libertyhq @BigBrotherWatch @friends_earth

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. Join.greenparty.org.uk
🟒 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 β€œrainbow 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 β€˜a red line’, a red line we didn’t impose on our councillors for Labour literally arming a genocide.

Today marks 100 days since Andy Burnham became Prime Minister. He could have stopped arms sales to the genocidal apartheid state of Israel on day one. He chose not to. For 100 days, he has willingly continued selling UK arms that enable the genocide of the Palestinian people. 100 days of personal complicity. Stop ALL arms sales to Israel NOW.
