Greens call government’s Palestine stance “cowardly”

Green Party - Palestine news

The Green Party has condemned the Government’s decision not to recognise Palestinian statehood, calling it “cowardly” and damaging to New Zealand’s reputation as a voice for peace and justice.

Co-leader Marama Davidson said many New Zealanders were bitterly disappointed by the move, accusing Prime Minister Christopher Luxon’s Government of siding with the Trump administration instead of taking meaningful action to end the violence in Gaza.

Davidson noted that tens of thousands had marched in Auckland calling for sanctions on Israel and recognition of Palestine, but Foreign Minister Winston Peters offered only “empty words” at the UN.

The Greens have drafted a Member’s Bill to sanction Israel and say just six Government MPs need to support it for it to advance.

  1. The Greens want to spend all Your money
    An affiliate and satellite of the Labour Party like the sinking fiber glass waka pretenders TPM
    After they have seized and forfeited everything You Own
    Socialism the road to communism
    Like drunken sailors on shore leave
    A bender
    We need to get rid of MMP and its instilled scurrilous inherent baggage that was ushered in through the back door
    And resultant list MP’s
    In a return to first past the post
    Where logic decency integrity and a moral compass is paramount – and where the lack of a veneer or facade does count in sorting out the lambs from the goats
    Like a three piece band – nowhere to hide nowhere to run
    Turds that float in under the net
    That everybody was brain washed into accepting through a deep state pseudo induced MSM saturation propaganda campaign instrument – and socialist influencers
    To reinforce the constrictions of Judaism and to give communism a leg into bed and make a strange bed partner in this cuntry
    MMP and the low life minority group caliber of parasite it attracts – at our disposal – is dragging NZ down
    Predators
    A liability and never an asset
    Until Kiwi’s wake up one morning destitute and disinherited in the land their forefathers nurtured galvinized and strived to protect for successive generations
    Time for this insanity to end NOW that is taking Us on a road to nowhere
    Otherwise it will be too late
    How is a ratio of 3 workers going to sustain and support one superannuant projected by 2036?
    Another good reason
    But who is going to campaign on that?
    A fools errand
    Politicians only think in three year cycles – god forbade four – in serving mainly their own best self interests and what benefits them
    Not that of the cuntry which is at the heart of the matter and is the crux of the problem we now face
    This ship of fools rudderless and headed for a lee shore needs to be turned around now!
    And fothering (sheeting) cannot fix the problem
    Unlike the good fortune of Captain Cook on the Great Barrier Reef
    Time for a sencha

  2. Doesn’t matter whether you like the Greens or not they are 100% right. Its gutless, cowardly and despicable and makes us look like a US mouthpiece because well, as of now, that’s precisely what we are.

    Of course, the derascinated, voter zombies, who back this gruesome coalition wont ever engage their corroded, critical thinking faculties….no, no, no….

  3. Greens demanded expulsion of Russian diplomats without bothering to know the real cause for the proxy war. Have they demanded expulsion of Israel diplomats??? NO.

    Nord stream blow up was the worst envirnomental disaster that happened in the recent decade. All of the Euro Greens are war mongers and never bothered about the nord stream event. NZ greens never condemned nord stream blow up by US.

    Greens shifted the agenda to woke shyte and not really “greens” any more.
