I thought it was a hogwarts conference with Zac as Voldermort.

Why don’t you tell us that Zak Polanski real name I’d David Pauldon. You always tell us Tommys Robinsons real name.

How about putting a cap on the profiteering of privately owned care homes? For elders, children, and disabled people: check out their financial records.

Why is the commentator doing the work of other parties? Giving his views of the greens?
I used to think the BBC claimed neutralism. They seem to be on the same road as SKY.

The BBC is in a bind because it's difficult for them to label Zac Polanski as Anti-Semitic as he's Jewish himself. The anti Zionist Jews are the ones the media tries to marginalise. I wonder why?

You'd think the fact the leader is a pathological liar, narcissist and predatory charlatan would be enough to 'split' the Green Party.

When a case has existed for 30 years that "rent and mortgages no longer constitutionally exist", you are accountable to respond to its contnt, it's wrong to just ignore it. Undr "security of tenure" undr "the court change"

Two Iranian nationals who arrived in the UK on small boats have appeared in court accused of targeting the Manchester Jewish Museum and Heaton Park synagogue in an alleged bomb plot.
Salam Ahmadyan, 36, and Rahman Salehi, 34, are alleged to have planned a terror attack on the instructions of a foreign actor believed to have been operating out of Iran.
They are accused of carrying out hostile reconnaissance of key Jewish locations in Manchester on 20 September, the first day of Yom Kippur - widely considered the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.

As both the Israeli Jews and the Gazan Arabs are defined racially as SEMITES the Zionism with regard to the conflict between the two cannot be racist. Their only difference is religion.
