I read his on the Jewish Chronicle website -
'The motion voted through today stated: “Congress instructs the General Council to work closely with the PSC to actively encourage affiliates, employers and pension funds to disinvest from, and boycott the goods of, companies who profit from illegal settlements, the Occupation and the construction of the Wall.”
'It had been expected that this part of the motion would also call for the council to actively organise its own boycott, but that line was dropped.'
I don't trust the TUC bureaucrats to act on this. I expect them to drag their feet.
Still it's upset Ron Prosor, the Israeli ambassador.
