What this report attributes

Labour voters are leaving them for the Greens, and they recognized some of it was because of the Israeli-Palestinian issue, that the government really hasn’t taken sufficiently tough or hard measures, and hasn’t been progressive enough for what the progressive public believes.per Maya Sion-Tzidkiyahu
We would have wanted the pro-Israel countries to draw other countries toward them. In the end, it’s the anti-Israel countries that are setting the tone.per Rémi Daniel
The E1 announcement was the last straw, of course settler violence and the government’s response to that violence trouble the Europeans, but the [E1] decision is one of policy, and therefore in the eyes of the Europeans it demanded a political response.per Rémi Daniel
