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 think we all know that the problem isn’t Israel’s existence, it’s the fact that a Terrorist organisation runs Palestine. The Israeli Government is run by people who have no thought for a two state solution and are quite frankly acting as bad has Hamas. A one state solution either way will simply cause different problems.
They have put their name to it, so there is no need to email them asking. Ask the other councillors on Leeds City Council instead.
