Zack Polanski says he would 'discourage' use of 'globalise the intifada' on marches
Green Party leader Zack Polanski has said he would discourage pro-Palestine protesters from using the chant "globalise the intifada" but stressed he is "not interested" in policing language. Speaking to the BBC's Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg, Polanski said he would not personally use the phrase as it distracts from more effective protest messaging. The comments come amid controversy over his retweet of a post criticizing police actions during the arrest of the Golders Green attack suspect, which he described as "traumatic". Meanwhile, Labour faces speculation about potential leadership challenges ahead of local elections, and the SNP has said it will seek a new independence referendum if it wins a majority in next week's Scottish parliament election.
