Has endorsed the campaign

Zionism is not racism. I call on the Green Party to reverse its "Zionism is Racism" motion.

In their own words:

I stand with the Jewish Community and their fundamental right to form a national identity in their ancestral homeland. Zionism seeks to protect a historically persecuted and indigenous minority from anti-semitism.

They have put their name to it, so there is no need to email them asking. Ask the other councillors on North Kesteven District Council instead.
