“Green party leader Zack Polanski has given presumptive new Labour leader and PM Andy Burnham an ultimatum over Israel. Polanski, Britain’s only Jewish party leader, has said that Burnham must dump Israel and recognise the Gaza genocide — anything less is a red line”

Polanski says Burnham must dump Israel, and recognise genocide, for Greens' help

Polanski calls Gaza genocide recognition a “moral litmus test” for working with Burnham, citing his refusal to call the genocide by its name

Polanski and unions warn Burnham against backsliding on climate action

Debate in Labour and union movement over climate commitments as many call for Burnham not to allow drilling in North Sea

The Guardian

@kittylyst It is v hard to imagine #ZackPolanski losing that by-election unless he is smeared to hell.

So I think that a carpet-bombimg of smears against #Polanski will be the forewarning of #Starmer's resignation of his Commons seat.

By the time Starmer takes the #ChilternHundreds, the people of Holborn and St Pancras will believe that Polanski has installed Hamas hit squads in their bedrooms.

“Green Party sources told the Canary that the national party campaigns team has taken over and, in essence, that Manchester can expect to see the “kitchen sink” thrown at the mayoral race. From the fact that they spent much of the Burnham by-election planning this, they’re clearly taking it seriously”

"Bills up. Wages too low. Record profits for Oil and Gas. 50 richest families with more wealth than 50% of population. Pensioners jailed for protesting. Migrants thrown under the bus. Supporting a genocide.

That's #Starmer's legacy"

Polanski slams #right-wing MPs after Edinburgh anti-Muslim attack

A video appeared to show a topless man on ground shouting that he is “protecting the country” as he is held by an officer

Following the incident, #Polanski, leader of the #GreenParty of #England and #Wales, said: "Let’s be very clear that vicious #anti-Muslim #hatred by# politicians and their trillionaire mate Elon #Musk create the conditions for this kind of #vile attack.

Zack Polanski slams right-wing MPs after Edinburgh 'anti-Muslim' attack

ZACK Polanski has slammed right-wing politicians' "hatred" after five people were left injured following an "anti-Muslim"…

The National

#Polanski has been cleared by an ethics inquiry looking into complaints that he did not pay council tax while living on a houseboat.

A report by the Greater London authority’s monitoring officer found that the circumstances of the Green party leader’s living arrangements had not breached the code of conduct for London assembly members.

Shove it.
