Zack Polanski’s claim that he immediately apologised for offering hypnotherapy to increase a woman’s breast size has been thrown into doubt by an unearthed interview. The Green leader suggested he could use his mind to enlarge the bust of a Sun newspaper journalist when working as a hypnotherapist in 2013.

The “eco-populist” has since insisted he was misrepresented and said he apologised the day after in an interview with the BBC.

But he appeared to double down on the theory in an interview with BBC Radio Humberside almost a week later.

He said: “Actually there was an article in The Sun last week where a client came to see me who was a journalist and we had a successful project,’ he said.

“We’ve done it a couple of times and there seems to be no shift.

“But, actually, increasingly more and more as I work people there’s starting to become anecdotal evidence, at least, of a growth in breast size.”

When asked on Good Morning Britain last September if he believed at the time that hypnosis could enlarge a woman’s breasts, he said: “No. I was misrepresented, I apologised a day later.”

Speaking to LBC in 2024, when he was deputy leader of the Greens, he said: “I apologised immediately, the day after the article 11 years ago, to say that doesn’t represent my work… I apologised because I recognise that can be offensive to people.”

A Labour source said: “Zack Polanski’s ego might have got bigger, but nothing else has.

“It’s now clear that his pretence to have been misrepresented over his breast enlargement hypnosis scam was absolute nonsense – he got called out years later, and he lied about it.

“You can’t trust a word he says – he’ll say whatever he thinks you want to hear.”

A Green Party source said: “Zack has repeatedly apologised for an interview he did with the Sun more than a decade ago.

“Now, Zack is focussed on the issues that really matter to people: bringing down bills, protecting the NHS and rebuilding our public services.”
