Debate on Israel and British Politics

I mean, I can't get inside Zac's head and speak to that, but I think he's been

really clear that no state has the right to exist if that

inherently means-

You are-

... the displacement of another people. It's about that dynamic.

But-

And it's like trying to keep the focus on what's happening that, that shouldn't be

happening

... Rachel, you are his deputy.

I am.

And he is actively effectively not defending

Israel's right to exist, which is offensive to the hundreds of people

that live in

the council that you're the deputy, sorry, the leader of.

So the fact that you've got people in your own area that will be, that are

effectively represented by you and the party that you are deputy leader

of is effectively calling for the state of Israel to be wiped off of a map.

It's so offensive to British Jews, but also at a time

Oh

... because of the migrant camp. Why don't you talk about women's safety?

You're all obsessed with the Israeli problem.

I talk about women's safety-

You can't, you can't shout at her for not talking

about green stuff enough and then

say, "But talk about something that's not

green."

From the party that wants-

The safety-

... to repeal the Equalities Act

... the safety of women and girls
