Zack Polanski hits back at accusations of using Gaza to win local votes
Speaking on Good Morning Britain on Friday, Green Party leader Zack Polanski hits back at accusations that his colleague Hannah Spencer used a “sectarian campaign” focusing on Israel’s genocide in Gaza to win the Gorton and Denton by-election.
“Hannah Spencer on the ground was constantly talking about her local community and working there too. In the same breath, it is absolutely right that as an MP, as she now is, also talks about the fact that our government is still selling arms and sharing intelligence to the Israeli government who are committing a genocide,” he says, adding: “You can do more than one thing at once.”
The Green Party decisively won Gorton and Denton by-election yesterday, in a humiliation for Keir Starmer’s Labour Party, which came in third behind Reform UK.
