Divest This

The Supreme Court has just ruled that Local Government Pension Schemes do not have to invest in Israel if they do not want to.

Good news for Conservative Councillors, whose party has never adopted the IHRA Definition, leaving them free to pursue both ethical and profitable investment.

But bad news for Labour Councillors, who would be expelled from their party for anti-Semitism if they did not invest even in monetarily worthless concerns that happened to be located in the State of Israel.

The Oxford English Dictionary defines anti-Semitism as “Hostility to or prejudice against Jews”. If that definition is sufficient for you, then The Centre is the think tank for you. Please give generously..
