The Green Party is grappling with a motion describing Zionism as racism, according to The Guardian, amid broader disputes over the contested term's meaning and history. Party leader Zack Polanski has identified himself as anti-Zionist, positioning the debate within internal party discussions about ideology and language.

The dispute reflects wider disagreements over how to define Zionism and assess its historical and contemporary implications. The term remains contentious in political and intellectual circles, with critics and supporters offering sharply divergent interpretations of both its founding principles and modern applications.
