Sorry only news sources reporting this is the Daily Mail and Telegraph, not worth linking to their thoughts on trans women.
Of note is that Eleanora was elected to the spot and backed by ‘Greens for Palestine’ . 2 Weeks later she is out on transphobic grounds and seems to have her suspension leaked to the Daily Mail potentially by someone in the Greens.
Xitter conversation between Greens Party Council and Eleanora
Greens Party Council member Kai Taylor has put the Greens party into disrepute.
I can’t believe anyone believes what the right wing media write about a left wing party, but be that as it may, Eleanora wasn’t suspended because she was trans, she was suspended because she made comments on social media likely to bring the Greens into disrepute while holding an official post (ordinary members can say what they like, representatives of the party can’t). The party is investigating those comments to see what disciplinary action should be taken and her role is suspended while that happens.
The comments in question were blatantly anti-semitic (as opposed to anti-zionist which I have no problem with) in my opinion, and I doubt she’ll be allowed to retain the post. I’m sure everyone on here understand the difference ? The Daily Mail certainly doesn’t though.
This reddit thread has more details from Greens party members

No it doesn’t? Is there any particular comment you’re talking about here? Because I see nothing that indicates that she said anything antisemitic.
No one here believes the right wing media, we believe the he victim who is the one in OPs post where they specifically say they are not linking to the right wing sources.
Once again, precisely zero hard evidence
Zero hard evidence on either side, though. She says she was suspended due to transphobia but provides no evidence that this was the case. There are plenty of Green trans councillors that haven’t been suspended, so what’s going on?
I would not be inclined to pick sides here until the truth actually comes out.
Agreed
What evidence are you looking for ? I’ve stated the Greens have made no formal statement on it - because that’s the process when someone is suspended and their conduct is being reviewed - unlike the Mail I don’t just make shit up to make the readers happy
if the Greens aren’t transphobic, then why did they elect a transphobe for GPRC rep? also, it’s a little suspicious you’re ignoring that despite the screenshots being posted in this thread before you commented.
What did she say
Comments like this are exactly the kind of bullshit populists use to ruin any chance of nuanced interesting conversation.
“I’m here to attack and share nothing back. I’m angry, and everyone else can do the work of proving me wrong.”
It’s the classic low-effort provocation, followed by moving the goalposts when someone actually engages.
Sorry. Not meaning to insult you personally (although god knows it’d cheer me up a little if I have pissed you off)
Maybe try engaging in the discussion instead of using 4 word posts to “call people out”.
There’s a chance there’s some nuance out there. Who knows, try more and you might bump into it.
Or just keep firing off four-word replies and outsourcing the interesting part to everyone else. Whatevs.
How exactly is this an unreasonable question. Someone said “no it’s her fault” or something so I’m asking for more details.
Where’s your evidence
None of that sounds particularly antisemitic imo. Am I missing some context?
And the anti-semitism was what? Her support for Iran against the genocidal US and Israel?
You really should have to qualify smears like this without just vague posting about it. Let others see what you think was anti-semitic and let them judge for themselves.
