  • DSA did the same thing, we basically spent more time debating our exact position on Palestine than anything that could make us a relevant national org (like internal democracy), and nobody cares, like I couldn’t even tell you how I voted or what outcome was.

    Obviously it’s a bit different as the Greens are an actual party, but anything more specific than self-determination is LARPing, did they at least pair it with something useful like a commitment to an arms embrago & BDS?
















  • Can the BBC stop framing Gaza as an issue that only Muslims care about?

    We saw in the US that a lot of the core volunteers that go out knock doors simply don’t bother when the party asking them to is unwilling or unable to sufficiently oppose a genocide.

    UK politics is somewhat different as everything is so centralized and filtered through a Westminster media bubble but we’ll see what happens if Labour can’t win back the trust of its membership in a post-Starmer era and taking stronger positions on Gaza is part of that (even if the general public are fine with deprioritizing Gaza)
