The BBC has published an investigation debunking Zack Polanski’s titillating claim to have apologised after he attempted to grow a Sun reporter’s breasts via hypnosis in 2013. In fact, the BBC has found Polanski stood by the claims…
The Greens claimed Polanski went on the BBC to apologise and claim the Sun misrepresented him the day after the original hypnosis piece came out. The BBC dug into its archives and couldn’t find that particular instance…
What it could cleave from the archives was a BBC Radio Humberside appearance six days later in which he roundly backed the asset treatment method:
“Actually increasingly more and more as I work with people, there’s starting to become anecdotal evidence, at least, of a growth in breast size… the evidence is growing… I believe that it can happen in theory and I think it’s definitely worth investing the time of evidence and research into hypnosis generally.”
No doubt Polanski will now be known as a bizarre grifter to voters all over the globes…
Starmer spoke to Nick Robinson for the Today Programme on Polanski’s criticism of the Golders Green police officers:
“I want everybody just to imagine what it might be like. You’re trying to arrest someone who has already attacked two people and has no regard for life. We know that tasers were fired. I know from my own experience with the police, that there are only two shots in a taser, and once you’ve shot them, there’s nothing left. There’s a guy on the ground, he’s got a rucksack on. And I don’t know what was going through the mind of those officers, but if I was there, I’d be thinking, he’s going to detonate something. He’s going to blow me up and everybody around here. In those circumstances, I think you can quite see why what could have gone through their mind is, we need to do whatever we can to disable this guy…
Now, when I then see Zack Polanski come out and retweet or support a criticism of that, I think it’s disgraceful… He’s not fit to lead any political party.”
