On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom :point_down: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

There's nothing wrong with changing your mind in the face of new evidence, in fact it's admirable. So I hope the Home Secretary will do as @zackpolanski.bsky.social asks: watch the footage from Saturday's @pscupdates.bsky.social demo, and then reconsider her comments about what took place.
Today I have written to the Home Secretary.

The policing of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign has been a mess & deeply corrosive to public trust.

It's time to check the footage, retract the comments and apologise.

Letter from Zack Polanski AM to Home Secretary: Palestine Marches
Such language feeds false and often racist narratives about the Palestine Solidarity Campaign’s protests that have been peaceful.

Of 717 grooming offences recorded in 2023, some 83% of perpetrators were White, 7% Asian, 5% Black and 3% mixed race.

The Far Right doesn't want another national inquiry into the 83%. Wonder why.

Keir Starmer is no longer complicit in genocide.

With the information he clearly now has - by continuing to sell arms to Israel - he's enabling a genocide.

On this Independence Day for Palestine - it stands in the shadow of 45,000 people who have been murdered by the Israeli government.

It stands in the shadow of a brutal occupation & an ongoing assault that feels like peace is a distant dream.

The UK must end arms sales now.

A new UN report finds that the policies and practices of Israel are "consistent with the characteristics of genocide".

There is no excuse for saying you did not know.

This is genocide in plain sight.

Germany has facilitated Israel's genocide from day one.

Now over 1,000 academics, civil servants and public figures have signed a letter demanding this obscenity ends.

Delighted to interview two of the signatories 👇
