UK Green Party declares Zionism is racism, angering Israel
By David MillikenLONDON, Oct 5 (Reuters) - Britain's Green Party voted to class Zionism as a form of racism, drawing criticism from British Jews and from the Israeli government which said it now viewed the party as "a body that gives legitimacy to terrorism".The Greens – who received 6% of the vote in a national election in 2024 and have around 10% support in recent opinion polls – said they regarded Zionism as "an ethnonationalist political project" and repeated their call for Britain's Labour government to end all arms trade with Israel.
