Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Zack Polanski Apologises Over Houseboat Council Tax Issue
Caption: Zack Polanski Apologises Over Houseboat Council Tax Issue. The Green Party leader has apologised after questions emerged over council tax linked to a London houseboat where he had been living. UK government guidance states council tax may apply if a boat is used as someone’s sole or main residence. A spokesperson for the Green Party said Polanski had lived on the boat until recently and described the situation as an “unintentional mistake.” The party added that Polanski has already taken steps to pay any council tax he may owe. Reports suggested Polanski’s partner had previously advertised the boat for sale while mentioning plans to move into a house. Questions were also raised after reports claimed Polanski was registered to vote at another nearby address. The controversy comes shortly after Polanski apologised for sharing criticism of the police response to the recent Golders Green terror attack.
