That notwithstanding, the Green Party is a political party, not a protest movement, and we’ve made the goal of getting into government much much harder with this virtue signalling motion, when we were already so united on Palestine and have policies which would be beneficial for the Palestinian ppl.

I think judging people’s position on Palestine based on their social media is a bit silly. I rarely post about many issues yet attend in person events to express my solidarity. I believe in person activism is far more impactful for people who have the ability than reposting things on social media.

On ZiR:
I think it's really important that we don't belittle, dismiss or insult anyone for their position on the events of this weekend. Green Party conference is a place for members to raise their voices and express their opinions. I'm really disappointed with the way some

members are speaking to eachother. If the outcome or the aim of this is that the 800+ people that voted against aren't welcome in the party then that would be a huge shame and does not make peace or justice for the Palestinian people any more likely

That’s barely even my point. We were so united on Palestine. We were the first (or certainly one of the first) major parties to call for a ceasefire, first to condemn Netanyahu’s government, first to call the genocide a genocide. We’ve abandoned that unity in order to adopt a fucking slogan.

Let me try this once more. It was a choice. EITHER the Greens adopted a slogan. OR they could have joined the next govt, where they could push for an end to arms sales, sanctions, support for the arrest warrants etc. It was never going to be both. Which one makes a material difference? #GazaGenocide

Not only that, if our chances were slim at the Holborn and St Pancras by-election, they’re non existent now. We’ve thrown a huge amount away just to virtue signal

Feeling quite disheartened by the Zionism is racism motion at the Green Party conference. We’ve ostracised ourselves from the Jewish community (incl. ppl who abhor the genocide), large parts of the public, other parties and international Green parties, and for what?

I wasn’t very clear, I meant I think we should be in favour of the Falklands being part of the UK for as long as they want that to be the case. Likewise, we should remain neutral when we don’t have much sense of what people in the Ireland (particularly the north) want re. unification

The "Zionism is racism" motion, to be debated at the Green Party conference tomorrow, will not advance the Palestinian cause one inch. But, if adopted, it would marginalise and discredit the party. There are powerful ways to confront the genocide. Toxic gesture politics isn't one of them.

As much as I’m pleased Canada gets associate EU membership (with whatever that entails), it pisses me off to no end that Canada will have a closer formal relationship with the EU than the UK. It feels that younger generations are always being held hostage by conservative boomers & Reform voters.

Farage would rather stoke the prospect of civil unrest than reckon with Reform’s own conduct and quietly disappear from public life. When accountability comes knocking, the grifter reaches for a match. What. A. Twat.
Screenshot of a Twitter post from an account labelled “Nigel Farage”. The post says: “For six years now, Labour and the Tories have facilitated an invasion of our country. We are on the edge of serious civil unrest. The only solution is the ballot box. Only Reform will end the invasion.” Below is a video still showing a man in a dark suit speaking against a blue background, with the word “WARNED” across his chest.

A Wikipedia editor put it well: "You almost want to pat them on the head and say 'Yes, of course it will' in the same way you'd tell a small child that Santa Claus will be delivering their presents."
Other platforms will soon follow, a senior administration official told POLITICO on Tuesday. “We got Lake America changed on Google Maps, and many other maps are changing in a couple days. And Wikipedia is going to change as well,” said the official, who was granted anonymity to speak frankly.
