Labour Friends of Israel Chair Condemns Anti-Israel Motion
(Jewish News-UK) Lee Harpin - Labour Friends of Israel chair Steve McCabe criticized the "one-sided" Palestine motion passed by the Labour conference as "completely hostile to the people of Israel." He said the motion "is completely unacceptable, grossly inaccurate and morally repugnant. It does not represent Labour's longstanding policy in support of a two-state solution, backs the toxic BDS movement which singles out the world's only Jewish state, and propagates the apartheid smear." The motion, presented by Young Labour, appeared to pass with a 2-1 majority following a show of hands.
