Burnham condemns 'Zionism is racism' motion and rules out coalition with Greens

British Prime Minister Andy Burnham has condemned a motion by the Green Party declaring Zionism to be a "form of racism," labeling the declaration as antisemitic. Speaking in Parliament, Burnham stated that the government would have nothing to do with the motion, emphasizing that it is wrong and offensive.

In addition to condemning the motion, Burnham ruled out any future political partnership or coalition between the Labour Party and the Greens while the stance remains. The prime minister's remarks directly address the controversial policy position adopted by the Green Party, marking a firm boundary in inter-party relations over the issue of Zionism and antisemitism.
