Has endorsed the campaign
Zionism is not racism. I call on the Green Party to reverse its "Zionism is Racism" motion.
In their own words:
I believe Zionism, understood as support for Jewish self-determination in Israel, is not a racist ideology, while recognizing that reasonable people disagree and that Israeli government policies may be criticized like those of any other state.
They have put their name to it, so there is no need to email them asking. Ask the other councillors on Cornwall Council instead.
