Yes, because it combines three newsworthy items: the two I've mentioned already *and* a terrorist attack (and the arrest of the terrorist so *four*, arguably).
EDIT: [Polanski has now apologised](https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/zack-polanksi-golders-green-suspect-arrest-apology-b1280747.html), so he's implicitly acknowledged he was wrong to make the criticism.

> EDIT: Polanski has now apologised, so he’s implicitly acknowledged he was wrong to make the criticism. I bet that's going to be tomorrow's story that loosely ties the Green Party to antisemitism, I expect the newspapers will go hard with it in a way they wouldn't with Reform or any other party. Expecting this to be blown out of all proportion in fact, that's what happened with Corbyn, Ken Livingstone before that. It's so predictable. Happens to everyone deviating from Thatcherite economics within a shout of power.
