Polanski says he will not overturn the Green Party’s ‘Zionism is racism’ motion, confirming that the text will remain party policy until 2028. The leader acknowledged a desire to amend the wording but made clear the motion will stand intact for the remainder of the period specified. The announcement sets a firm timeline for the party’s official position on the subject.
The leader’s statement clarifies that, despite internal debate over language and emphasis, the existing motion will remain on the party’s books. Polanski has indicated his preference for amendment rather than outright removal, but has ruled out using his authority to reverse the decision before the stated expiry. The party therefore retains the motion as an established element of its platform for the coming years.
The continued presence of the motion means it will inform the party’s public communications and formal stances until 2028. That status can shape how spokespeople address related issues, how candidates align with party policy, and how the organisation is perceived externally. Maintaining the motion in its current form locks the text into the party’s official framework for the duration specified by its internal timelines.
The leader’s choice reflects a resolution of a contested internal question by leaving the motion unchanged while signalling a preference for future amendment. Any alteration or removal of the text prior to 2028 would require the party’s established decision-making processes to be invoked. For now, Green Party members, affiliates and observers can expect the motion to remain part of the party’s policy landscape until the year indicated.
