But the real problem is the Green Party of England and Wales declaring that Zionism is a racist ideology.

The Green Party conference has concluded its debate on this motion, titled 'Zionism is Racism'. The result will be announced shortly. Well informed observers anticipate it is likely to pass.

Green Party Motion A105
Proposer: Lubna Speitan
Title: Zionism is Racism
Type: E Motion (Policy)
ZIONISM IS RACISM
SYNOPSIS:
This motion defines Zionism, recognises its continued harm to Palestinians, and seeks to clarify
that the Green Party is opposed to Zionism. It further affirms the right to self-determination and
liberation of the Palestinian people and supports the establishment of a single democratic
Palestinian State in all of historic Palestine.
MOTION TEXT:
Zionism is a political ideology which called for the creation – and, now it exists, the continuity –
of an ethnonationalist Jewish State in historic Palestine to the exclusion and/or domination of
the non-Jewish population. The real, material manifestation of Zionism has been the historic and
ongoing dehumanisation, displacement, dispossession, disenfranchisement and destruction of
Palestinians. This is based upon European settler-colonial systems of domination and
oppression, which has also created racial hierarchies between Jews of different ethnicities in
Palestine.
The practice of Zionist ideology, promoting ethnonationalism, privileges one ethnic group on the
basis of the subjugation of others. Zionism is Israel's foundational ideology.
Zionism has created and seeks to maintain – and where possible – expand, an apartheid
regime between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, designed to cement the
supremacy of one group, Jews, over another, Palestinians. As such, Zionism is racist.
This motion is aimed at the political ideology and practice of Zionism, as defined, and not at the
religious or ethnic background of those who may identify as Zionists. Not all Jews are Zionists
and not all Zionists are Jews.
Rejecting Zionism and supporting the liberation of the Palestinian people is not discriminatory
against Jewish people. Nor is it discriminatory to support the establishment of a single
democratic Palestinian State between the Jordan river and the Me…

I think nearly every trade union has voted to support trans people in the last year or two - often against the wishes of their own leaders - and the transphobes hate that, so I think we're seeing a concerted effort to harass and lawfare unions into being anti-trans.

Allowing third parties to interfere in the doctor-patient relationship and deny trans people medical procedures opens up everyone's rights to opt or not for treatment to ideological challenge. History shows allowing erasure of rights for one group soon sees others targeted. It isn't a 'them' issue.
