  "summary": "Labor MP Josh Burns has accused new Greens leader David Shoebridge of prejudice for singling out Jewish Australians who share the party's views on the Middle East. Burns, who is Jewish, found Shoebridge's comments \"shocking\" and argued that people should not be judged based on their views on the conflict. Shoebridge, in response to a question about repairing relations with the Jewish community, stated that the Greens had strong connections with many Jewish Australians who are fighting for justice and that the party would continue to champion their voices. However, Burns suggested that Shoebridge's answer would send \"chills up the spines\" of many in the Jewish community and that it was not unifying or inclusive. Despite the criticism, Burns still hopes to have a constructive relationship with the new Greens leadership team.",
