“It’s well beyond anything ever tried under Jeremy Corbyn. The ultimate irony is the one closest to their policy is Ben Gvir who also wants one unified state rather than two states,” he added.

That's a rather silly comparison.

Leading barrister Adam Wagner KC has also said there is a strong risk the motion, passed at the Greens’ annual conference this weekend, contravenes the Equality Act 2010.

Parties taking political stances are exempt from this sort of viewpoint discrimination. That's the whole point of a political party. This is false.

Meanwhile, there have been growing calls for political parties to refuse to enter into any kind of coalition arrangement with the Greens, after senior Labour figures told The Independent on Monday that Andy Burnham should rule out any collaboration.

I think that the world may not be ready to hear "Zionism is Racism", even if it is true. This comes at a rather bad time with the coming byelection, with a media frenzy mischaracterizing all of this likely to cause the Greens to lose votes.

Any party like the Greens has to be perfect to gain any chance at taking power. They've got the right and far right against them, the neolibs, enlightened centrists, center-left, the establishment, and the vast majority of corporate media all waiting for any sign of weakness.

All of that and they're far from perfect.
