Zack Polanski has been busy retweeting messages of support for his latest Green Party video. Unfortunately the fact his most vocal supporters are concerning cranks has cropped up again…
Polanski retweeted a supportive message from Harriet Bradley, a former Labour councillor and Bristol University lecturer who in 2023 was the subject of a police investigation after calling on someone to “blow up” a Jewish Labour Movement meeting.
Bradley, who was suspended from the Labour Party in 2019 for a social media post the party said was antisemitic and resigned as Bristol City councillor in 2020, tweeted: “Somebody blow up the venue!” She later apologised: “I want to offer an apology on what was a very ill-considered stupid tweet, I am ashamed of having made it. It has had awful consequences for me obviously and I’d like to apologise to anybody who was upset, offended, frightened even.” “It has had awful consequences for me obviously”…
Avon and Somerset Police said at the time it was investigating the post as “an incident of malicious communications.” All these people have hopped over to the Greens, where they are welcomed with open arms…
Speaking at his speech on how to achieve “progressive capitalism” Wes Streeting fired a dig and Andy Burnham:
“Bond markets are not bond villains and fiscal rules matter.”
