Polanski Apologises After Starmer Says He Is Unfit to Lead
Prime Minister Keir Starmer called Green Party leader Zack Polanski "disgraceful" and said he is "not fit to lead any political party," after Polanski reshared a post alleging police had "repeatedly and violently kicked a mentally ill man in the head" during the Golders Green terror arrest. Polanski has since apologised, and senior Greens including the Welsh party leader publicly distanced themselves from the post.
