The Green Party’s annual conference has begun in the seaside town of Brighton, just two days after the ruling Labour Party’s conference ended.
Party members are gearing up to vote on an unprecedented motion to declare Zionism a form of racism.
The vote is expected to take place on Sunday, according to party insiders. If the motion passes, it will become official policy and the Greens will become the first major party in the country to recognise Zionism as racism.
Time for me to join the Green Party. Labour is long dead and Your Party seems dormant
Welcome to the team!
The greens here reminding everyone that they can do performative politics whenever they want because they will never get into power.
If they’re so powerless and irrelevant, why are you spending time commenting on their policy votes?
Labour doing performative politics while in power.

It’s absolutely racism, but I fail to see how defining a word is something that needs a vote within a political party. It sounds like a great way to sew division in a time when having everyone just agree to oppose genocide is hard enough.
