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:

For me, Zionism isn't racism. I see it as the belief that Jewish people, like any other people, have the right to self-determination and a homeland. I don't see that as being about racial superiority or discrimination. I believe it's entirely possible to support Jewish self-determination while also supporting equality, human rights and respect for people of all backgrounds and communities.

They have put their name to it, so there is no need to email them asking. Ask the other councillors on St Helens Council instead.
