A profile in cowardice. Courage requires doing the right thing despite the potentially negative consequences. Pathetic.

My reflections this morning, some thoughts on how we build back better from here, and a message to members and constituents. 💚🙏

Sian Berry
Green Party MP for Brighton Pavilion
This morning, in what I know is a very initial and uncomprehensive way, I want to offer some of my personal reflections and thoughts on what we do now, in the wake of both conference, last night's by-election, and following the many powerful and heartfelt messages I have received from residents, constituents and party members in recent days.
I am full of regret for so much that has happened, and very sad Zack is not joining me in Parliament next week. Sincere congratulations to Sagal on winning her seat too.
On the motion, I voted and argued against it because I felt it needed serious amendment, and if not then sending back for more dialogue or voting down. But the clash of conference with an exciting and mobilising by-election campaign meant many of us were persuaded not to campaign publicly for these ends, while proposers were very organised and remained intent upon no changes at all.
I want to take my full share of personal responsibility for the result of all this in the votes at conference. I should have worked harder to persuade more of our leading figures to speak up in a unified way to say that the motion as written was clearly not reflective of our values and policy principles.
Both in the words of the motion and in how they have been heard in the country, I can hear genuine worry about what it means for our communities, and can see genuine damage being done to our strong reputation as a leading, principled and inclusive voice for human rights in Palestine and against the atrocities of the Israeli state.
I regret this hugely, and apologise to members and constituents for where we are now as a party, which I know is causing real concern.

To Green Party members - especially those for whom thoughts of leaving must have crossed their minds in recent days - I say please stay and let us fix this together.
I am very glad that Zack has now said that he would have voted against the motion as it stood, and that he has agreed we have work now to do. We are not at all where we want to be today, but I know we can build from this starting point if we work together in a new spirit.
I stand ready to work with all my colleagues to restore trust in our processes and our party, fix the serious flaws in the motion that was passed, as well as to restore key policies aimed at inclusive peace-building.
And my principles dictate that I will always want to help find a way to do this work through understanding, listening and consensus building.
To my constituents, I want to reassure you this morning that the party's currently stated policy on this issue does not reflect my values, and that it will make no difference to the inclusive way in which I represent our fantastic, diverse, kind and inclusive community here in Brighton.
With love and respect to all, I look forward to important conversations taking place in the coming days and weeks to find a way to make sure our party is again a unified, enthusiastic and very clear voice for understanding, peace and human rights for all people.

@citizenape.bsky.social I see you removed your post about disenfranchising Jewish Americans voters. It has been preserved for posterity. Just stopped in to say you'll have to pull my ballot from my cold hands you antisemitic piece of shit.

@cppilgram.bsky.social why do you think my comment was tagged that way?

It's been said 1000 times but it bears repeating: listen to black and Jewish voters. They warned us about Fetterman. They are warning us about Plattner. Unfortunately there aren't enough blacks or Jews in Maine to prevent this travesty from happening.

I missed this from @phineas.bsky.social when it originally came out but it sure feels relevant at the moment. Also, you can buy this as a print from the artist here: www.inprnt.com/gallery/phin...

By the way, since there seems to be some confusion about this, here's a handy primer:

This is Heinrich Himmler, the head of the SS and architect of the Holocaust. That symbol on his cap is the totenkopf. This isn't just a nazi symbol, it was the symbol of SS guards who mass murdered millions. Just to be clear, no one who gets this as a tattoo should ever be elected.

“Historic black and white photo showing Heinrich Himmler in a Nazi SS uniform, identified by a red arrow, standing among other uniformed officers. He wears a peaked cap with an eagle insignia and appears to be speaking to a man in work clothes in the foreground.”

“Black and white portrait of a Heinrich Himmler wearing a Nazi SS uniform, including a peaked cap with a skull insignia and a skull emblem. The man has round glasses, a serious expression, and is facing slightly to the side.”

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.

I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

Ozzy believed Jews deserve to live in peace in their indigenous homeland? Another reason to love him. He'd have thought very little of you, Kim.

Your Michigan Medicine colleagues would appreciate if you relay the message that a basic medicine we use 1000x per day in the hospital, heparin, is also dependent on China, and people will die without it

In case anybody's wondering, most of us Jews do not like being used as an excuse to dismantle higher education. We didn't ask for this and we want no part of it.

Remember. It’s never: We fight for (these people) because maybe we’re more at risk if we don’t. No more Niemölling. We fight because they are coming for anyone. Every single person matters. Each and every human being’s life and safety is worth the fight.
