To think this is utterly disgusting?!?

What is wrong with people??

Talk about adding insult to injury!

Can someone explain to me what happened to the Greens? I thought they were supposed to be about the environment? How did this kind of identity politics take over?

It isn't acceptable at all. I proudly wear mine but neither of my daughters do any longer 😥

The trot out some such nonsense that ‘they believe social justice goes hand in hand with environmental protection’ and use that as an excuse to go heavily into the trans, antisemitism, wealth tax and giving every penny in tax take to those who can’t be bothered to work. Quite a lot of idiots fell for it so paid off for them.

Environment? What environment?

Two wrongs don’t make a right.

Israelis were victims on October 7, that’s a fact, but they’re no saints and haven’t been since 1948.

We can all agree that Hamas we’re in the wrong though can’t we?

In the pictures, the crotch of their jeans were absolutely blood-soaked. What the hell did she think happened to them? Sickening that she can say this.

So sorry to hear that 🥺

Its a fucking disgrace.

Their strap line is not 'Hope, not Hate'. It is 'Hope not. Hate'.

They are a vile bunch of useful idiots who will find themselves discarded sooner rather than later by the voting membership pulling their strings.

I agree - I’ve said this before on previous posts that the hoops left wing loonies will jump through to defend murderous terrorist ideology is insanity itself

The Green Party have turned in to the Islamist Party. They are full of people like this.

It doesn’t bear thinking about what those poor women went through, it really doesn’t.

And the fact that it’s another woman denying it happened makes it even worse.

Sadly, there are many self-proclaimed feminists for whom VAWG should only be spoken of if it fits their own political narrative. Otherwise they want women who have been subjected to violence to stay quiet, or they join the crowds in defaming them as manipulative, untrustworthy liars.

You see it as well with feminists who prescribe to gender ideology and deny that any women have been raped by TIMs, or those who are against borders and label any evidence of migrant men committing sex crimes as lies. Anything that threatens to topple their hierarchy of oppression must be denounced as either lies or excusable in the circumstances.

Can we please not do that on this thread?

Misogyny at it's worst. Women have no rights. That is all.

The hierarchy of oppression. Too true.
It's also much worse; some people would ally themselves with fascism - the antisemitic, misogynist, homophobic, nihilist, anti democratic groups such as Hamas, rather than support women who are victims of sexual violence.
It's a blind spot. A damaging one.

Yes they were in the wrong.

I was wondering this too.
It's a shame as they always used to be a safe protest vote for me but that is no longer a possibility now.

Of course YANBU @LucyWestenra

People hiding behind the source to say YABU need to consider that there are direct quotes from Abi Wilkinson which remain the same regardless of who reports them:

Abi Wilkinson, who joined the Green Party operation last month after previously working for Zarah Sultana of Your Party, previously said regarding rapes which took place on 7 October: “There’s absolutely no new evidence, there is not a single identified victim. It wouldn’t justify this genocide if it was true, but there’s absolutely no evidence whatsoever that it is.” Another tweet from Wilkinson on the same subject said: “there is no victim testimony, not a single one”.

Me too. Plus I think the environment is such a pressing issue. I've no idea what's gone on there.

@Twiglets1 : so women's voices are denied.
Yet again. So regressive.

It's disgusting and the people voting YABU on this thread should be ashamed.

Whatever they think of the war in Gaza.

This is about innocent women being raped.

To close your mind to it because it's Jewish women is so disturbing.

The Green Party are utterly discredited in my mind as even the name is dishonest now - it's nothing to do with the environment anymore.

I cannot begin to understand that mindset. It just horrifies me so much.

Well, rightly calling them racist. Would you vote Reform if you were Muslim?

Neither Abi Wilkinson or the Green party were held hostage by hamas.
nor were they at the Nova music festival on 7th Oct 2023.
nor were they captured from their homes in a Kibbutz.

Why would either suggest or believe that the former hostages lied.

Ridiculous.
