48 hours later and still no action from Zack Polanski and Lambeth Green Party.
The racist views of a Lambeth Green Party candidate are irreconcilable with being a councillor & representing our diverse communities in Lambeth.
They must take action and remove her as a candidate.

Lambeth’s Labour leader Cllr Claire Holland has been exposed as the chief architect of the Freedom Pass fabrication at the heart of ‘Labour’s lying leaflets’, and furious Liberal Democrats are now targeting her own Oval seat on 7 May. The borough-wide leafleting and manifesto campaign now dubbed ‘Labour’s lying leaflets’ incorporates a number of fabrications of Green Party and Lib Dems policies, actions and voting records. One of the claims, states that the Liberal Democrats categorically plan to cut the Freedom Pass, the free travel scheme used by over 1.2 million older Londoners and 33,000 Lambeth residents. However, Brixton Buzz has traced the tenuous root of the Freedom Pass accusation back through the public minutes and governance structure of London Councils, the body representing all 32 London boroughs and the City of London, where Labour holds 21 of the 33 seats and Claire Holland sits as chair (see links at end of article). On 13 November 2025, the executive sub-committee of London Councils’ Transport and Environment Committee (TEC) – which Labour also controls – considered a routine budget paper on the rising cost of the Freedom Pass to the London boroughs. The paper was presented by Chief Operating Officer Stephen Boon, a non-political civil servant, and according to the public minutes, the committee then agreed to ‘identify what other policy options might be used to control the cost of the scheme in the future.’ But, following a public backlash, the Evening Standard ran a story within weeks citing anonymous Labour sources who claimed the Freedom Pass was “under threat”. The same sources said they had been forced to authorise the review by officials after Liberal Democrats (with just one seat on the committee) had raised concerns about the cost falling on town halls. The story was quickly followed, on 14 January 2026, by Cllr Claire Holland publicly announcing that she was blocking the review in her capacity as Leader of London Councils’ Labour Group. The same Labour leader who chairs the body where the proposal originated was now the leader publicly “rescuing” the Freedom Pass from it. The subterfuge was exposed two days later by Inside Croydon’s political editor, who described the events as a political stunt designed to portray Labour favourably ahead of May’s local elections, with ‘the appearance of cultivated media management’.
On average, how long did it take to hold Labour councillors and Lambeth employees accountable after very public offences? How many were paid off to go quietly?

Labour has: ✅ Secured a discount of £405 on the average yearly water bill for thousands of residents and took tough enforcement action against Thames Water. ✅ Protected the freedom pass for over 33,000 residents ✅ Supported families with free school meal vouchers, money off energy bills & emergency hardship payments
Well done Labour
How many households have lived in homes with mould, damp and high heating costs? Why is Lambeth the borough with the highest number of complaints against it in the country? How much of the ring fenced repairs budget has actually been used elsewhere? A saving of just over a pound per week is nothing when you face increased council tax and rents to be ignored until the next election.
