P A L E S T I N E DAREDEVIL JEAN CAMPAIGNERS ACCUSE COUNCIL OF CENSORSHIP
An Ecclesfield woman admits that taking part in a skydive was one of those things she had always thought of doing…but it was only when husband became a St Luke’s Hospice patient that a daydream became a reality, and she raised an amazing £1,804. More on page 11.
Sheffield Palestine campaigners accused Sheffield City Council of censorship after a speaker was stopped by the Lord Mayor over concerns that she may have broken an anti-semitism ruling. Julie Pearn, the chair of Sheffield Labour Friends of Palestine, was interrupted by Lord Mayor Coun Sioned-Mair Richards, who was chairing a meeting of the full council (Monday, February 20). The group had put forward a question to the council about inaction over an invitation from the Mayor of Palestinian city Nablus four years ago for the two cities to have a twinning arrangement. It compared the lack of response with the speed of inviting the mayor of a Ukrainian city to speak at a full council meeting in December when a memorandum of understanding was signed. Before Ms Pearn could put her question, the Lord Mayor called on David Hollis, the council’s interim director of legal and governance, to “just to give us a note of caution here, Julie”.
