Our research into candidates and councillors from all political parties continues to reveal disturbing material.The more we learn about the Green Party’s prospective parliamentary candidates (PPCs), the more concerned we become.Let’s take a look at some of the Green candidates:• Sarah Ward, Green Party PPC for Poole• Sharmen Rahman, Green Party PPC for Leicester South• Ian Middleton, Green Party PPC for Banbury• Nicola Day, Green Party PPC for Peterborough• Sadat Hussain, Green Party PPC for Walsall and Bloxwich• Jo Bird, Green Party PPC for Birkenhead• Chris Brody, Green Party PPC for Chingford and Wood Green• Fergal McEntee, Green Party PPC for Putney• Fesl Reza-Khan, Green Party PPC for Oldham East and Saddleworth• Simon Anthony, Green Party PPC for BarkingThis is just a sample of the Green Party’s prospective parliamentary candidates.The Party has dropped a small number of candidates who have expressed similar views to these, so why do they still enjoy the Party’s support?CAA advocates for zero tolerance of antisemitism in public life. We are researching and exposing candidates from across all political parties. To learn more, follow us@antisemitism.

“We must always try and do the right thing.”Speaking with Farhad, it is clear that he is horrified by what is happening on our streets.Though not Jewish himself, he considers himself an ally and recognises what a frightening time it is for many British Jews right now.Farhad believes people should speak up when they see antisemitism occurring.He’s right. We need more people like Farhad right now.

We have written to a music venue in London hosting an upcoming event that calls for the exclusion of “Zionists”.Only 6% of British Jews do not describe themselves as Zionists. Venues that strive for inclusivity at their events must remember that this includes Jews too.
