A ROW has broken out between the Scottish Greens and Pride march organisers over support for Palestine ...
Greens in Glasgow are calling on supporters to join them in a pro-Palestine section in the annual Pride parade.
The group said it has concerns over reports some of the event organisers’ corporate sponsors may have interests and investments that the Greens state “make them complicit in the State of Israel’s ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people, as well as sponsors who are accelerating the climate crisis”.published by the Greens, Glasgow Pride said they had passed an email asking for details of their corporate sponsors on to Police Scotland.
“The Scottish Greens will always fight for LGBTQ+ people but that will not stop us from standing with Palestine or fighting the climate crisis. Pride should be about liberation for all, not a celebration of corporations putting a rainbow in their logo.” “We also do not condone any form of war or contravention of the ECHR be this the Palestine-Israel conflict, which began in 1948, the current ongoing wars involving Russia, Ukraine and Chechnya, or any form of harassment or violence to our community which can be seen in Scotland by the increase in hate crime reporting.”
