Green Party leader Polanski says he would discourage 'globalise the intifada' phrase but defends protest rights
Green Party leader Zack Polanski has said he would discourage use of the phrase "globalise the intifada" on pro-Palestine marches but insists he is not interested in policing people's language. Speaking to the BBC, Polanski said he wants people to be more effective in their protests and can make their point without using controversial phrases. His comments come as Prime Minister Keir Starmer threatened to ban some pro-Palestine demonstrations and called for tougher action on language used on protest marches. The transport secretary Heidi Alexander meanwhile described Polanski's retweet of a post criticizing police after the Golders Green attack as "disgusting" and "absolutely abhorrent", saying he is not fit to lead a political party.
