Not even the slightest of nods to say they are against the terrorist activities by Hamas or Hezbollah against Jewish people. Basically they’re against everything but that.
So close to the anniversary of the 7th October.
Truly sickening, and shameful.
Following the vote on the anti-Zionist policy at Green Party Conference, the 5 Green MPs, the Leader and Co-Deputy Leaders have issued a joint statement
ALT A green background with white text that reads: Joint Statement As Greens, we will always uphold universal human rights. We will never tolerate any form of discrimination or harassment. We will continue to stand in opposition to genocide, ethnic cleansing, apartheid and the illegal occupation. We will continue to call out the heinous crimes of the Netanyahu government. And we will continue to work to ensure that the Green Party is an anti-racist party in every way. We know there is no conflict between supporting the rights of Palestinians and the rights of Jewish people. Signed by: Zack Polanski, Rachel Milward, Mothin Ali, Sian Berry MP, Ellie Chowns MP, Carla Denyer MP, Adrian Ramsay MP, Hannah Spencer MP

Handy guide this. All British political parties to have adopted the policy of Zionism is Racism. 👇
A great stain on our country right enough.
Very soon we are all going to have to stand up to be counted. Have had a horrible knotted feeling in my guts for a while now. The knots just tightened up a bit more today.
Today, the Green Party in Britain ceased to act as a political party and became a body that gives legitimacy to terrorism. The Greens have adopted not only the green of Hamas, but also its ideology: the elimination of the State of Israel through armed struggle.
The shocking resolution adopted today legitimises armed struggle, calls for a Palestinian state “from the river to the sea” - meaning the destruction of the State of Israel - and labels as “racist” the aspiration of the Jewish people for self-determination.
This goes far beyond the boundaries of legitimate political debate. As long as this resolution remains in place, it will be a stain on the history of the United Kingdom.
Every political party in Britain, first and foremost the governing Labour Party, must unequivocally reject this twisted resolution.
A fundamental point. In order to allow the middle classes frictionless travel for European holidays and the ability to leave the UK in retirement, we paid billions of pounds annually.
The EU was and is a scam.
This animal has no value to society. It’s highly unlikely that it could be educated or remediated back to resemble anything useful to society. Locking it up would be a waste of human resource guarding, feeding & caring for its needs.
I’d put it down, like you would a vicious dog.
I see France has had another outbreak of diversity.

Well, Cast were superb in Edinburgh last night. As good and as accomplished a live performance as I’ve seen.
Couldn’t fault it.

Are you trolling us now?
I am a barrister. Every single barrister, judge, senior doctor, nurse, local business owner I know voted Leave.
Leave voters took the time and effort to consider their vote. To listen to the various groups (fishermen being the most obvious) it was clear that the EU was heading towards a Federal Project via the extension of remit of the ECJ. Set up as a Commercial Court to prevent anti-competition behaviour, the Maastricht and Lisbon Treaties widened the scope to Immigration, Matrimonial, Social care, Employment and Human Rights.
What’s the problem with that? You wail.
The problem is this: the laws being enforced by the ECJ are not from a democratically elected parliament, but from a body called the EU Commission.
This is an appointed body, not elected. Before you ask: No, unlike our parliament, the EU Parliament does not originate law. It rubber stamps them from the Commission.
Feel free to ask me any questions you may have on any of the EU treaties, I know them inside out.
Before I go.
Remain voters voted for the SQ. A lazy vote, just like the entire machine of the state: lazy.
Don’t you dare call me stupid for my vote.

Good day to remember this: in 2013, leaked cabinet papers revealed John Swinney was contemplating massive cuts to the state pension, benefits, and public sector employment in the event of Scotland voting for independence. He went ahead and campaigned for it anyway…
Essential reading.
I’m tired of John Swinney’s lies, misdirections, misinformation and faux grievances.
He is not a good man, but just the latest unfit person to hold high office in Scotland.
Holyrood is a huge expense for each of us, with no discernible return. Close it down.
This is a masterclass in statistical lying to manufacture a constitutional grievance. You claim the Prime Minister is taking “up to £4bn from Scotland's pensioners to pay for social care in England”, but your own Deputy First Minister’s letter admits that £4bn figure is an unadjusted cash-terms extrapolation for 2049–50, nearly a quarter of a century away. Terrifying pensioners today with compounding spreadsheet projections for 24 years in the future is cynical politics. More importantly, the claim that Scottish money is going south to fund English care is completely fabricated. Social care is fully devolved. If the UK Government invests money into an English National Care Service, the Barnett formula automatically triggers massive, proportional block grant windfalls straight into Holyrood's bank account. Scotland doesn't pay for English care; Holyrood gets a cash payout because of it. The ultimate irony is that Scotland’s population is ageing faster than the rest of the UK. Scottish pensions are currently underwritten by a 68-million-strong UK tax base and an annual £25.3bn UK Treasury fiscal transfer. If Scotland were independent, facing a 10% structural deficit without a central bank, you couldn't maintain existing state pensions on Day 1, let alone in 2050. Honest John?😂
Here goes the lying, twisting, manipulating bastard, yet again.
It shouldn’t be the case that Community Notes/ honest citizens have to create corrective context to a First Minister’s public output like this.
In what decent, democratic society should this be needed?
I have received the first official estimate of the cost to Scotland's pensioners of the Prime Minister's attack on the triple lock.
It will take up to £4bn from Scotland's pensioners. And the Prime Minister plans to use it to pay for social care in England.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The £4bn is a Scottish Government projection for lower state pension payments in Scotland by 2049-50 vs the current triple lock. The state pension is UK-wide. Increased English social care spending would bring additional Barnett formula funding to Scotland. gov.scot/publications/d… heraldscotland.com/news/26595468.… instituteforgovernment.org.uk/article/explai…
George here has been inconvenienced momentarily in an airport.
We simply must prevent this by joining the EU, paying them billions of pounds annually, accepting the Euro and freedom of movement for every waif and stray that makes their way across porous European boundaries.
I’ve just come through innumerable checks at Paris Gare du Nord in order to return to UK.
Families with young children & older people (yes, including me) finding it really difficult.
The sooner we return to EU the better it will be for us all.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Passport checks at Paris Gare du Nord for Eurostar to the UK involve French and UK border controls that predate Brexit, as the UK has never been part of the Schengen Area even as an EU member. Rejoining the EU would not eliminate them.

Twelve years after the independence referendum it’s extraordinary that Lesley Riddoch has still only got the one jacket.
Twelve years after the independence referendum it's extraordinary there's still just one newspaper supporting and exploring the political future half of Scotland wants to see, writes Lesley Riddoch ✍️ thenational.scot/news/264249…
We’d have to join the Schengen Area and would have more and more Muslims entering the country freely, without a single check or balance. Replacement Theory is beginning to look real and not an outlying, crank view.
Dangerous, dangerous man.
Brexit was never granted the thing that democracy needs to work properly - losers consent. It’s been plagued by fifth columnists in every government we’ve had, and the legacy media, since the day after the vote.
I was ambivalent in 2016. But no way I’d vote to go back in now.
The original sin of Brexit was not allowing Vote Leave to own the project after victory.
In wrestling power from the people who won the referendum, insane internal machinations within the Parliamentary Conservative Party prevented those who campaigned for the outcome from delivering that outcome.
From the start the whole project was decapitated.
And so here we are now, ten years on, having repealed precious little EU law, pursuing no supply side reform, indeed still building a £125m bat tunnel in order that HS2 abide by the retained EU Habitats Directive.
For the best part of a decade the political class stole the victory from the people.
And now they have the temerity to say their own failure is actually the fault of the people for wanting an independent country.
