Labour is poised to scrap nearly half its council deals with the Greens over their 'Zionism is racism' policy
Adrian Ramsay warned that a Green-Labour power-sharing pact on Lewes council had collapsed in the fallout from the conference motion.Zack Polanski, who co-led the Greens before replacing Adrian Ramsay, skipped a conference debate on the "Zionism is racism" motion — a decision Ramsay refused to endorse.
About half a dozen councils — including Sheffield City Council — face being pushed into no overall control, with Labour warning it will seek coalitions with other parties where Green groups refused to disown the motion.
Sheffield's Labour group accused Burnham's ultimatum of being "antisemitism" itself, claiming it conflated Zionism with Judaism.
Former Green co-leader Adrian Ramsay warned the party faces a 'hard left takeover' by members who 'might be more at home in the SWP or with George Galloway'.
Zack Polanski's poll approval rating has dropped to its lowest ever level since the 'Zionism is racism' row erupted.
