Green Party members voted to declare 'Zionism is racism' at their conference.

The Green Party passed a motion at its conference in Brighton declaring that 'Zionism is racism'. Party leader Zack Polanski has defended the position, insisting the Greens have a 'principled' stance on Palestine despite criticism from those who describe the motion as anti-Semitic.

Nine Labour MPs have written to Sussex Police requesting the force investigate and secure evidence to assess whether a criminal investigation is warranted. The MPs also cited alleged behaviour at the conference, including reported rejection of protections for members affiliated with synagogues and Jewish organisations.
