Sky News reports:,

Zack Polanski shared a post on his Instagram account that included an image with suggestions that Reform UK leader Nigel Farage should be decapitated.

Specifically, Polanski shared a series of photos, one of which showed a man wearing a black t-shirt that said "we're only making plans for Nigel", alongside a picture of a guillotine.

Zak Polanski has once again shown how credible he is as a leader of a major UK political party by re-posting an offensive image to his social media followers.

It's one thing to de-bank someone but quite another to advocate their beheading.

A 'joke' (remember 'battery acid'?), a 'mistake'.

A pretty significant mistake coming so soon after the murder of Ann Widdecombe.

But you can bet your life that if it had been Burnham or Trump or Zelensky threatened with the guillotine in the image then the outrage would have been deafening.

Clearly, when it comes to Farage, lots of people do not 'only want what's best for him'.

Surely this is exactly what a real hate crime is: an incitement to violence?

Let's see how the police wriggle out of this one.
