\r\n\tConcerns over Israel’s policies toward the Palestinians have initiated a heated debate among two of the UK’s top trade unions, which are scheduled to decide upon their official stance regarding Israel in upcoming annual conferences.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tThe UNISON trade union is set to oppose a resolution proposed by its Redbridge branch, which submitted a motion welcoming efforts toward resolving the Israeli- Palestinian conflict, with the union’s national executive committee reportedly recommending delegates to vote against it.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tUNISON is scheduled to hold its annual conference, which is to take place between Tuesday to Friday, and in which it is to decide upon three resolutions regarding Israel.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tOne of resolution to be discussed in the conference echoes calls to introduce Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions measures, which call for local councils and public organizations to exclude Israel when considering contracts or entering bargaining processes.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tMeanwhile, the Unite trade union, which is set to meet in Liverpool at the end of June, also has four resolutions concerning Israel on their agenda.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tTwo resolutions attack Israel over what their proposers call “the Apartheid state,” and demand strong measures to be taken against it.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tThey also called on their union’s leaders to “commit resources to the Palestine solidarity campaign and for pro-Palestinian campaigning.”<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tA third resolution blames Zionist regime for recent deaths in the Yarmouk refugee camp in Syria.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tThe fourth resolution, however, submitted by the union’s Bank of England branch, called for constructive dialogue and support for the Histadrut.<\/p>","content_source":null,"content_url":null,"content_columns":"0","content_date_start":"2014-06-15 14:10:28","content_date_finish":"2014-06-15 14:10:28","content_date_register":"2014-06-15 14:10:28","content_date_last_edit":"0000-00-00 00:00:00","content_show_img":"1","content_show_details":"1","content_show_related_img":"1","content_show_slider":"1","content_show_title_slider":"1","content_comment":"0","content_score":"0","content_recorded":"0","content_confirmed":"1","content_status":"1","content_kind":"0","old_id":"122510","tag_id":null,"tag_word":null,"tag_service":null,"tag_total":null,"tag_soundex":null,"attach_token":"3155855690","attach_date_register":"2014-06-15 14:10:35","attach_id":"120005","attach_file_ext":"jpg","attach_file_header":"image\/jpeg","attach_img_type":"2","attach_img_width":"122","attach_img_height":"77","attach_file_media":"1","attach_show_watermark":"0","score_average":null,"score_count":null,"score_date_last":null,"visit_count":"178","visit_date_last":"2025-05-09 16:43:13","attach_title":"Two British trade unions to boycott Zionist regime","node_title":"news","ot_node_left_right":"[{\"node_id\":122, \"left\":2, \"right\":53}]"}]]
