I Have Been Expelled from the Green Party Because Excluding Jews is the Best Way to Combat a Non-Existent Anti-Semitism

On 29 June I received an email informing me that I had been expelled from the Green Party ‘after proper consideration’ by a ‘consensus decision’ of the Green Party Council [GPC].
Attached to the email was a Form which begged more questions than it answered. I had been suspended, after an anonymous complaint, on 16 April and given till 13 May to respond.
Clearly the GPC couldn’t wait till 13 May because on 7 May they expelled me! Yet the description of it being a consensus vote by Rositta Priestley of the Complaints Department, who for some reason reminds recipients of her emails that ‘#MyNameIs: Rose-EATer’ was a little wide of the mark. The vote had been 7-6, in other words a majority of one.
Longman’s Dictionary defined consensus as ‘an opinion that everyone in a group agrees with or accepts.’ A vote of 7-6 doesn’t seem to accord with that. Collins Dictionary definition was much the same ‘A consensus is general agreement among a group of people’ and the synonyms include ‘unanimity’ or ‘common consent’.
What was curious was although the decision was made on 7 May it wasn’t until 29 June, over 7 weeks later that I was informed of the decision. Why the delay? I can only assume that the decision was referred elsewhere. Perhaps the Chair of the GPC, Laura Eccott, consulted her Israeli Embassy handlers for their approval? It is a mystery.
However it was the reasons for my expulsion that demonstrate that disciplinary processes in the Green Party are not fit for purpose. Behind the nice, cuddly image of the Green Party lies a deeply authoritarian and undemocratic set up.
The reason I was suspended on 16 April was for
Documented history of antisemitism, including court decisions and recent terrorism charges.
No documentation has ever been produced so it is clear that this was a fictitious reason. The ‘terrorism charges’ relates to an allegation that has yet to be tested, viz. that I invited support for a proscribed organisation. The usual legal rule of innocent until proven guilty seems to have been discarded by a Green Party that is nominally committed to natural justice. Internally however it seems no such rules apply
The reasons give for my expulsion bear no relationship to the reasons for my suspension. This is indeed Zionist justice.
The first reason given was ‘Multiple breaches of 4.8 suspension’ with no indication of what these might have been. Ctd....
