In the wake of the @BoardofDeputies declaring @TheGreenParty racist, it's worth examining its history and the extraordinary political influence it holds. 2018: Its then president publicly accused @jeremycorbyn of holding antisemitic views amid controversy over Israel and Zionism. 2024: Opposed the UK withdrawing its challenge to the @IntlCrimCourt's jurisdiction over Israel, then condemned arrest warrants against Israeli leaders accused of war crimes. 2025: Launched disciplinary proceedings against 36 of its own Jewish deputies after they publicly condemned Israel's war in Gaza. Five were initially suspended for two years; 31 were reprimanded. 2026: Contacted @andyburnham's team to express serious concerns over his criticism of Israel's conduct in Gaza. October 2026: Voted 118–1 to declare @TheGreenParty racist over its position on Zionism, urging other parties to distance themselves. The danger here is the extraordinary political influence this organisation holds. The Board serves as secretariat to the All-Party Parliamentary Group on British Jews, has direct access to ministers and Parliament, and describes itself as the government's first port of call on Jewish community concerns. But whose interests is that influence actually serving? There's a world of difference between protecting British Jewish people from antisemitism and protecting the Israeli state from criticism and international accountability. #GazaGenocide #FreePalestine
