Daniel Sugarman @danielsugarman.bsky.social · 12hWhat it comes down to is this. If you’re determined a motion on Zionism isn’t seen as antisemitic, you pass this amendment. Obviously. It was instead rejected twice. First in a pre-conference meeting re: all amendments, then by conference members in the hall. This is now what the Green Party is. 36513
Daniel Sugarman @danielsugarman.bsky.social · 13hI just want to say that I know that some trans people on here who joined the Greens because of their LGBT stance decided to leave because of what happened today, & firstly I want to say thank you, I got tearful when I saw that, and secondly, I want to say I'm so sorry you were put in this position. 111712
Daniel Sugarman @danielsugarman.bsky.social · 13hYou realise we all saw how an amendment specifically designed to remove the targeting of Jewish Green Party members for Synagogue attendance was rejected, right? These "assurances" are as worthless as your "solidarity". 29921
Daniel Sugarman @danielsugarman.bsky.social · 14hSomething I repeatedly find with far left politicians is that they seem to think that if they say the magic words "antisemitism has no place in our society" this frees them from doing anything tangible about the antisemitism right in front of their sanctimonious fucking faces. 06113
Daniel Sugarman @danielsugarman.bsky.social · 15hThis is like saying “we will never tolerate fire” as your house goes up in flames behind you. 26815
Daniel Sugarman @danielsugarman.bsky.social · 15hI understand that given the passing of this motion, leaders of local authorities run by the Greens, as well as Green MPs, will be contacted and asked these questions. I imagine most will not have the courage to answer. 0201
Daniel Sugarman @danielsugarman.bsky.social · 15hIn the wake of the “Zionism is Racism” UN motion spearheaded by the Soviet Bloc & Arab League in 1975 (repealed in 1990), there was a concentrated campaign at universities around the UK to ban Jewish societies. Not Israel societies. Jewish societies. We know where stuff like this leads. 04511

Daniel Sugarman @danielsugarman.bsky.social · 17hGreen Party conference just voted in favour of this motion, and this time, in the hall itself, specifically voted against an amendment which would have removed the element about “Zionist Synagogues”. As a result, for most Jews the Green Party will now be considered to have a policy of antisemitism. 715869
Daniel Sugarman @danielsugarman.bsky.social · 20hSo the Green Party’s leader is too much of a coward to actually lead his party. Figures. 48520
