Pro-Palestine Green members have reportedly called for Caroline Lucas to be ousted from the party in WhatsApp messages accusing the former leader of being a “shill for apartheid and genocide”.
Ms Lucas, who served as the party’s leader from 2008 to 2014 and co-leader from 2016 to 2018, has been a vocal critic of the motion passed at the Greens’ conference last week determining that ‘Zionism is racism’.
