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:
Zionism is the right to Jewish self-determination in their ancestral homeland. The Green Party, in passing its “Zionism is racism” motion, shames them in the most despicable way, effectively siding them with the ideology of extremists like Hamas. This extreme and racist motion has no place in British politics. I’m proud to be a Zionist. The people of Israel live. #AmYisraelChai 🇮🇱
They have put their name to it, so there is no need to email them asking. Ask the other councillors on Cheshire West and Chester Council instead.
