英国绿党领导人扎克·波兰斯基在Instagram上分享了一张T恤照片,引发Reform UK党的举报[1]。这件T恤印有文字"we're only making plans for Nigel",配合断头台图像[1]。Reform UK主张政策发言人齐亚·尤素夫声称"波兰斯基正在煽动谋杀"[1],随后该党向警方报案称其内容"煽动谋杀"Nigel Farage[1]。伦敦警察厅随即启动调查[1],发言人表示"我们高度重视此类报告,警官正在进行调查"[1]。
波兰斯基所在政党对此作出回应,声称他谴责该图像,称其在不知情的情况下被标签在包含多张图片的帖子中[1]。该图像已从波兰斯基的Instagram账户删除[1]。据BBC报道,波兰斯基尚未被警察联系[1]。Farage在X平台上表示:"如果我发布任何煽动性内容,我会被逮捕,波兰斯基也应该如此"[1]。
Zack Polanski, leader of the Green Party, shared an Instagram post featuring a photograph of a t-shirt bearing the text "we're only making plans for Nigel" alongside an image of a guillotine, prompting Reform UK to report the content to police as allegedly inciting murder against Nigel Farage [1]. The t-shirt, priced at £20, was accessible to Polanski's 713,000 Instagram followers before the image was subsequently removed from his account [1]. Reform UK policy spokesman Zia Yusuf declared that "Polanski is inciting murder," while Farage stated on X platform: "If I posted anything inflammatory, I would be arrested, and so should Polanski" [1].
The Green Party responded by stating that Polanski condemned the image and had been unknowingly tagged in a post containing multiple photographs [1]. A Metropolitan Police spokesperson confirmed they were taking the report seriously, stating that "officers are carrying out inquiries," though according to BBC reporting, Polanski had not yet been contacted by police [1]. The incident occurred amid heightened tensions following the recent murder of former Conservative MP Ann Widdecombe at her Devon residence, where prosecutors stated the suspect struck her head 21 times with a hammer [1].
