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:
Antisemitism sickens me. Zionism is not racism and I would expect every decent Green politician to make that clear. Zack Polanski’s refusal to condemn the Green Party’s motion has been disgraceful.
They have put their name to it, so there is no need to email them asking. Ask the other councillors on Sefton Metropolitan Borough Council instead.
