This week, they came for Zack Polanski. Every interview hostile. Every presenter badgering. The Met Commissioner wrote him a scathing letter. Trevor Phillips piled in. Ed Balls, a Labour politician married to a Cabinet minister, sat across from the Green Party leader and acted like that was normal. They meant to destroy him. Instead, they destroyed their own credibility. Ed Balls is now facing questions about whether he should remain on air. So is the Met Commissioner. So is Trevor Phillips. Zack walked into every room, took every hit, and gave as good as he got. Maya Angelou said it best: "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time." The media, the establishment, the parties who feel threatened by what he represents, they showed us exactly who they are. And Zack looks braver for every punch they threw.

Asylum hotels massively cut. Small boat crossings down. Crime falling. Constituents have told me they want a system that is firm, fair and works. That is the system Labour is building. #Security #Rugby

Trevor Phillips about Mandelson last Sept: "I was his friend & remain his friends & will continue to be his friend & I'm, if I may put it this way, mildly disgusted by the people who have spent the last few yrs saying what a fantastic person he is.. who are now running for cover"

Bill, mate, your sympathy for this potential mass murderer is ridiculous. Two extremely brave police officers who could’ve been stabbed and killed at any moment during this struggle with a knife wielding terrorist who (despite being tasered) wouldn’t let go of his knife put their lives on the line to protect us. That includes you and your family if they’d been there. Where’s your sympathy for his victims and those others he’d have stabbed (including the officers) if he hadn’t been stopped? In the US they’d have pumped him full of bullets and it would’ve been entirely justified to stop him killing more people. You’re infected by the dangerous virus of the feminisation of western society - the ethical framework that leads to your conclusion is called the Feminist Care Ethic. It’s a termite infestation - it’s mentally castrating us and letting the guys with the bad ideas and the bombs, guns and knives win.

BREAKING Sir Mark Rowley, the head of the Met police, has criticised Zack Polanski after he appeared to condemn police officers for allegedly “repeatedly and violently’” kicking a man suspected of stabbing two Jewish men while they attempted to detain him He has accused him of fuelling tensions and undermining confidence in the police ‘I am disappointed because it is this kind of inaccurate and misinformed commentary - with its associated casual disregard for the incredibly challenging and dangerous work police officers do for the public - that is contributing to the rising tensions we are seeing in society and undermines officer confidence to act’ He says the officers ‘are nothing short of extraordinary’ and that without their intervention lives would have been lost. He says the man ‘continued to pose a clear threat’ and they feared that he was ‘concealing an explosive device’ ‘Apprehending violent and dangerous criminals is a full contact and messy task which may appear shocking to observers with little experience of policing in the real world’

HE PROTECTED 54,000 DOCTORS. THE @NHS PROTECTED ITSELF. In January 2014, Dr Chris Day (@drcmday) was working overnight in the intensive care unit at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Woolwich. Two locum doctors didn't show up. The unit was running at double the patient load the national guidelines allow. He raised the alarm. He reported unsafe staffing. He linked the situation to two patient deaths. That's what the NHS calls a whistleblower. What followed was eight years of litigation, a legal battle all the way to the Court of Appeal, and over £700,000 of public money spent by Health Education England (@NHSE_WTE) and Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust (@LG_NHS) trying to stop his case being heard at all. Here's the really elegant bit. HEE's opening legal argument wasn't that they'd done nothing wrong. It was that whistleblowing law simply didn't apply to them, because they didn't directly employ junior doctors. They were just the organisation that controlled the career progression of every single one of England's 54,000 junior doctors. Totally different thing. Dr Day fought that argument to the Court of Appeal and won. The law was clarified. All 54,000 junior doctors below consultant grade in England now have statutory whistleblowing protection. One man, crowdfunding against three QCs, changed employment law for an entire profession. No formal apology from the NHS. No reinstatement. No path back to a consultant career. He has worked as a locum A&E doctor ever since, doing overnight shifts while his opponents collected salaries, pensions, and the occasional glowing tribute to NHS transparency. During the 2022 tribunal hearing, the communications director at Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust deleted up to 90,000 emails. The director whose entire NHS email archive was also deleted during live litigation happened to be the instructing legal client in the case. The tribunal described the conduct as extraordinary. Nobody was prosecuted. The trust issued a partial apology about a press release. The system did exactly what it always does. It absorbed the cost, deflected accountability, and waited for the man it destroyed to run out of money or energy. He hasn't.

The fact that Sir Keir Starmer's opponents want him gone shows how much they fear his ongoing success will deny them the opportunity of being elected to government. His honesty and decency is a breath of fresh air and we are lucky to have him in charge.

I’m 70 and getting as many older younger people as possible to vote labour it’s so crucial to stop reform it really is
Linda@LindaR39

@soniasodha @geof24 I’m 70 this year and @Keir_Starmer is one of the best PM’s in my lifetime. He & his govt have achieved a great deal in a short space of time despite the hostile media. We don’t all fall for their attempts to bring him down. They want @Labour gone regardless of leader.

@billau53 @SpitTheBluePill @Steven_Swinford Do grow up, calling you deluded is an observation of a state of mind and clearly not an insult. Your immature attempt to deflect and adopt the moral high ground encapsulates your persona, including your initial observations of the incident. Perhaps focus on the cause?

BBC News report that Essa Suleiman attacked two Jewish men Then say he attacked another man but don't mention the third victim is a Muslim man Why is the religion of the two men in Golders Green important, but the religion of the man in South London not important enough to mention? Is this Islamophobia?

@doctoriaindarcy In 2015 her policies were so far right that she was affectionately known as 'Taliban Kendall' within the party. She'd probably hate that label to be resurrected. So feel free to repost.

Exclusive: Zack Polanski is a ‘moral coward’ and the Greens are putting the safety of the Jewish community at risk, a cabinet minister has warned Steve Reed the housing secretary, claims the Greens have been ‘occupied’ by antisemitic Momentum members “Zack Polanski is a moral coward. He won’t tackle antisemitism in his own party and he won’t tackle antisemitism on the streets of Britain “It’s all a pattern of the Greens under his leadership, I’m afraid. They far too often focus on the rights of the terrorists and the criminal, and not on the victim. “Given what had just happened, an old-age pensioner stabbed in broad daylight at a bus stop, surely all of us should be applauding the police for taking that man down, not questioning the way that they took him down. “They have been taken over and occupied by the antisemitic Momentum members that Keir Starmer kicked out the Labour Party, and with the imprint of his boot on their backside they’ve walked through the open door of the Green Party and received a warm welcome from Zack Polanski, who will not criticise a single part of the offence material they have been posting online “It’s a wholly new party that Zack Polanski is creating in his image and I think, whether it’s next week or shortly afterwards, they will implode.” thetimes.com/article/e688f7…

@IanFender1 @SpitTheBluePill @Steven_Swinford You've never been tasered have you Ian? Also, what's with personal insults? Do you insult people that you have conversations with at work or out socially? If not, why do so on here? We merely have a difference of opinion.
