I'll be sending a copy of this email to Sheffield Labour Party
Councillors and others.
I recently emailed all the Labour Party Councillors in Sheffield
to draw their attention to material on the page which is
critical of Councillors Blake and Gibson and specifically their
support for the Palestinian cause. Since then, I've contacted
other people in the Sheffield Labour Party and extended the
material. It now includes an extract from the page where I
discuss green issues and the Green Party, including Sheffield
Green Party,
www.linkagenet.com/themes/greenobjections.htm
As I make clear on the page 'Green objections,' my practice is
'green purist.' But I don't regard the Green Party as my
natural political home, far from it. I argue that people with a
strong interest in green issues should not think that voting for
the Green Party is the natural, automatic choice. On the page
'Green objections,' I mention my allotments, where I've planted
25 trees, encouraged wild flowers and made a large wildlife
pond, visited by dragonflies and damsel flies, from which young
frogs emerge in large numbers each year. The allotments give me
self-sufficiency in fruit and vegetables to a significant
degree. The page
http://www.linkagenet.com/gardening/gardeningphotographs1.htm
introduces my work in gardening and conservation in these
allotments. Another page of the site criticizes the power of
supermarkets and makes a case for small shops, whilst
criticizing small shops which support boycotts of Israeli
produce
www.linkagenet.com/themes/supermarkets.htm I've been
an activist in the fields of animal welfare and human rights
(for example, opposing the death penalty) over a long period of
time. Although I share the views of Green Party members in these
and so many other ways, there are significant differences.
The Labour Party is a far more diverse entity than the Green
Party. It supports an organization Labour Friends of Israel as
well as Labour Friends of Palestine. It includes Brexit
supporters as well as supporters of the Remain position. Unlike
the Green Party, it includes many, many people who have an
appreciation of the importance of industry and technology. The
Labour Party has many, many members who have a realistic
attitude to defence, people who recognize that armed forces to
resist external aggression are as necessary as a strong police
force to resist criminality. Humane, enlightened states, states
with a strong concern for the protection of the environment,
states with other strengths, are vulnerable. Occupation by a
state with no concern at all for these things would quickly put
an end to their advantages. The Green Party encourages naive
views which would be disastrous if the party ever came to power
(very unlikely in Sheffield and even less likely nationally.)
My site has very high Google rankings for a very wide range of
search terms. Some very recent examples, in fields to do with
gardening, conservation, ethics, politics and others (literary

who happen to have literary interests):

My page on Israel and Palestinian ideology issues direct
challenges to people who support the Palestinian cause.
It gives the information that homosexuality is illegal in Gaza
but legal in Israel. LGBT events are freely permitted - very
common - in Israel but unthinkable in the Palestinian
territories.
My page gives opinion poll results which give a disturbing
insight into some attitudes which have significant approval in
the Palestinian territories. They include widespread approval of
stoning to death for adultery, a practice not carried out in the
Palestinian territories but carried out not so many years ago in
Iran.
I give
detailed arguments and evidence showing that the slogan 'Stop
arming Israel' would have disastrous consequences if put into
practice.
I think that
Green Party Councillors and Green Party members in general would
find it very difficult to comment on such issues as these and
find it much easier to evade the issues. It may be that the
Green Party is more robust, with a greater command of arguments
and evidence than I supposed, but I doubt it.
I intend to
add a page to the site which is almost entirely free of
criticism of people in political life, one in which I show my
appreciation for Sheffield City Council and the House of Commons
and other institutions. I may disagree strongly with the views
of so many Councillors and MP's, but I don't have a cynical
attitude to people who contribute so much to the political life
of this country. The rule of law is overwhelmingly important,
even when there are manifestly unjust laws on the statitute
book. I don't have a cynical view of the rule of law, or the
people who are involved in the legal institutions of this
country. Reform of the law is important in this case, not action
which undermines the rule of law. Democratic debate is
overwhelmingly important, the institutions in which democratic
debate takes place are important and action which undermines
democratic institutions is to be condemned. Nigel Farage's
comment, in connection with the House of Commons, that he was
'near to enemy territory' is to be condemned. The storming of
the Sheffield Council chamber by tree campaigners was a bad
mistake, like the stunts undertaken in the House of Commons by
groups as varied as Fathers 4 Justice and Extinction Rebellion.
The tree campaigners made the mistake of supposing that the
Council was to be judged by one issue alone, the trees issue,
and the company Amey was to be judged by one issue alone, the
trees issue - all the other work of the Council, all the other
work of Amey, seemed to be treated as of no consequence. I think
that so much of the Council's work is impressive, very
impressive, and I don't make the mistake of thinking that
because a Councillor has views on the Israeli-Palestinian issue
which I believe are disastrously misguided, then the Councillor
has no strengths at all.
Many of the
pages of the site make use of 'Large Page Design.' They are wide
as well as long. These pages can't be viewed adequately on the
small screen of a mobile device.
Best Wishes,
Paul Hurt

My page on Israel and Palestinian ideology issues direct challenges
to people who support the Palestinian cause, including these. I
think that Sheffield Green Party councillors too will find these
questions very, very difficult to answer:
My page gives the information that homosexuality is illegal in Gaza
but legal in Israel. LGBT events are freely permitted, very common
in Israel but unthinkable in the Palestinian territories.
My page gives opinion poll results which give a disturbing insight
into some attitudes which have significant approval in the
