It's mostly not even about punishing them, it's about telling the rest of us that we cannot rely on our legal right to protest; it's about telling us that if we step out of line then the law will not protect us, we too will be left to rot in prison with no recourse.
Solidarity with the hunger strikers.
It is an egregious violation for them to be held on remand - without trial or conviction.
All for protesting against a genocide. Shameful.

Remember also that immigrants are just the thin end of the wedge; once their human rights have gone he'll move on to the rest of us. Like he has already started with our right to protest and our right to a fair trial.

The Greens are surging after a shift to the left, there's a new (albeit painfully birthed) socialist party. Why is *now* the time to declare Left v Right dead?

Damn, Zack is so dangerous that he wants... hang on, let me check my notes here - trans people to be respected, drug addicts to get help rather than jailed, to protect our fucked environment and for migrants to be treated with respect... so dangerous...
"Polanski slammed” reports the Daily Express. The person doing that “slamming” is, err, Daily Express journalist Carole Malone.
And the reason? Because I want us to follow a science led public health approach to regulate drug use.

Laura Kuenssburg isn't a real journalist anyway, she wouldn't have a clue how to interview someone like @zackpolanski.bsky.social who doesn't turn up with a pre-agreed script of neoliberal talking points.
I'd actually forgotten how extraordinary it is that when I won the leadership - I wasn't interviewed as it was too close to our party conference interviewed.
And then refused a second time!
