I never condemned Boris Johnson and his sleazy government corruption. i never quit the Tory party over May’s shabby deal with the DUP. I have never called Farage an antisemitic racist grifter. Nope never done any of that |
It's okay, I think we got your message. Zack Polanski and the Greens have lost your vote. I only hope he can recover from this. |  |

Otherwise you might as well just pretend to have somebody on ignore. But as we are taking about being consistent.

I might well not have posted about some Green Party members antisemitism but I condemn anyone who is guilty of that regardless of political affiliation. Basically your argument is, if someone doesn’t condemn everything then they can’t condemn something. Odd take. But to reiterate- I condemn all forms of antisemitism regardless of whether it’s a Green or Reform member etc who is guilty of that. |  | |  |

No that isn't my argument. It's the one you made in this post. And today, Zack will be……. by MattinLondon 11 May 11:43If posters care so much about honesty and integrity they should at least be consistent in their condemnation.
Keir Starmer - becomes ‘free gear Starmer’ and receives some criticism. Hate Preacher Farage pockets £5M from a crypto-currency mate and then makes a speech in favour of his cypto-currency organisation - not a peep.
Zack Polanski - has been found to have been less than honest about his past and it’s the worst thing ever. The leader of the Tories who has been less than truthful about her past (especially during her leadership bid) again, not a peep.

Exactly Mr Swansea The fact is that Mr Polanski did work at MoJ; not on payroll, but as a contractor It would seem that the right wing press barons hate him and are desperate to drag up anything, no matter how trivial, to paint him as a wrong'un Pass the sick bag Alice, as a noted newspaper columnist used to say |  | |  |

Just a bit weird - I condemn all antisemitism. I might well not post about every single time it crops up in the news (and unfortunately it’s in the news a lot) but I condemn it in its entirety. If I said along the lines ‘yeah, but no but yeah but yeah but’ when a Green Party member(s) is guilty of it then I’d understand. |  | |  |

| And today, Zack will be……. on 11:06 - May 11 by Smoresy | Making arrangements to pay council tax on a "property" that isn't permissible to be used as such* would be a bold move and one unlikely to end well, I'd speculate. Not something I'm overly exercised about, alternative lifestyles like this, lived out on the margins of society and the law, providing they don't harm others and providing take-up remains very modest (if we all opted to clandestinely live on these boats then that would be a worry!). It's another layer to the man's origin story though, however one feels about the degree of misdemeanour. *"Note that the legality of the occupation is not a factor. This was a “leisure mooring”, and so the fact Mr Polanski resided there may have been a breach of his contract with the marina, and/or a breach of planning control. But if there is residential use then council tax applies, regardless of whether that use was lawful." |
So ZP didn’t get his refuse collected from the houseboat/bungalow address, and wouldn’t have made use of local fire/police services (+ driving a car on local roads, if he/his partner had one) if he needed them? Every household that fails to pay their council tax but uses the council for such services drives the cost up for everyone else, who then end up paying more. It’s not just illegal/antisocial, it’s selfishly cheating your neighbours. Doesn’t exactly endorse his “caring about others” image does it. |  |

Asked about the claim, a spokesman for Mr Polanski told The Telegraph that he worked for the “justice assessment committee”, which he described as “a programme to improve the diversity of justice appointments based in the MoJ”. However no such committee exists and he later admitted that he had been hired as an actor. |  |

Yes, that bit seems on the face of it to not add up. There is a case to be made to ask why the spokesman said he belonged to a committee that didn’t exist (assuming it’s a true quote and they did indeed speak to his spokesperson). But the initial accusation is still spin that Alastair Campbell would have been proud of. |  |

Just depends how you interpret “working at”. It’s being spun as if he claimed he was working ‘for’. Anyone who’s worked out at client’s places will have said words like ‘I’m working at Tata this week’ or wherever. I can’t see anything where he claims he was working for the MOJ. The organisation he was posted too (Judicial Appointments Commission (JAC)) also works closely with and regularly in MOJ buildings, so it was very likely he was literally at the MOJ. Only he knows his intent for sure. Was he lying by saying he worked for the MOJ (doesn’t look like it), being deliberately vague to imply he was working for the MOJ (maybe, but can’t be proved either way). The Committed claim seems wrong though. I’ve no idea on that. We’ll have to wait and see if that’s verified/challenged and if anything else comes out. |  |

That was my thought exactly. Was similar with the thing last week and the hypnosis thing. Misinterpretations, possibly intentionally misleading to be uncharitable, but over things of low importance - the sorts of thing that most people do in their lives to exaggerate, and all years ago before his current role. I suspected it was going to be something like that, but it's sickening to have to look into all of these smearing tactics that these bastards use when someone with a bit of social responsibility comes along to challenge their cushy established scams on behalf of 'the people'. Misleading, misdirection, cynical bastards. |  |

Zack Polanski and his partner called their narrowboat their “amazing home” for three years. He registered to vote there. If it was his main residence, council tax was due. None was paid. It's as simple as that. |  |

More Walthamstow news this - Lee Bridge marina is a fantastic place in the marshes (you could be in norfolk in certain views). I had no idea that bods on boats had to pay council tax - no idea why, as they would get no services and pay the marina for water and electricity / rubbish, plus the water authority license for their boats.. Does this apply to boats in continuous cruising license out of interest and if so, which council do they pay |  |
