This is the emergency motion passed with an overwhelming majority at the Green Party Conference yesterday.
Such steps include:
- Reiterating our calls on the UN, the EU and the US government to ensure that Israel complies with international law
- Supporting these calls by active participation in the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaign. This campaign aims to put pressure on the government of Israel to end the Occupation and to give equal rights to Palestinians. The campaign asks individuals, organisations, councils and governments to refuse to deal with companies and institutions identified as facilitating Israel's military capacity, human rights abuses or illegal settlement activity
- In particular to demand the UK government halts all joint Israeli/UK military co-operation and approval for all arms sales to Israel.
Conference condemns Israel's ground invasion, ariel and marine bombing of Gaza, and calls on Green Party members and Green Party elected representatives to take what steps they can to put existing Green Party policy into action and to ensure that the underlying causes are addressed, acknowledging there can be no lasting peace without justice.
