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:

As a Hertsmere councillor and a proud British Jew,I call on the Green Party to reverse its deeply offensive motion equating Zionism with racism.Zionism is the belief that Jews, like other peoples, have the right to self determination in their ancestral homeland. Denying Jews that right, while upholding it for others is a glaring double standard. Criticising Israel’s government is legitimate; demonising Jewish national self-determination is not. At a time of rising antisemitism, the Green Party must recognise the gravity of its language. Equality must mean equality for Jews too.

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