A Greens councillor in Australia voted against a strategy to combat antisemitism, causing shock and criticism from other council members and the public. The councillor argued that the council's definition of antisemitism was too broad and proposed an amendment to include alternative definitions. The strategy, which aims to strengthen reporting and enforcement of antisemitic incidents, enhance social cohesion, and increase security for Jewish communities, had undergone extensive public consultation. The mayor and representatives from Jewish organizations expressed disappointment with the councillor's decision and emphasized the importance of combating antisemitism.
