Opinion | Zack Polanski on the Rise of Britain’s Green Party Zach Polanski of Britain’s left-populist party talks austerity, Labour and the establishment crackup.

“Hope without a plan clearly isn’t going to work and a plan without hope sounds bureaucratic to me,” Zack Polanski, the leader of Britain’s Green Party, tells David Wallace-Wells. “And I will get to the plan, I promise. But first: Don’t underestimate the hope.”

About a year ago we had one so close that it killed out TV and broadband router. I was working on a scaffold at the time.

Why we've not even notionally separated audit and consultancy in the UK is a mystery, perhaps only solved by looking at the links with the big four and government.

Same organisations now redrawing our local gov functions across the uk. I wonder who will benefit?

this Sunday. You're about to give advice to the local church group on practical issues around their next excellent community project. You've got four of your kids school mates round to help solder and glue together their scitech project.

Oh and the whole house needs tidying, painting, and sorting

You're on a committee where people will ask "who is doing this? and have we done that?" but nobody else ever seems to do this or has done that. Hundreds of little fuck you moments stacking up and up and up. But yet again you've volunteered to open the coffee provision to miss your kids playing sport

the shop not coming on time, apps constantly logging you out, taking time out for a gym session only to find you've forgotten your water bottle and one of your kids (probably) has borrowed your padlock. The car has started making a clunking sound and its MOT is due next week and you've not booked it

One of those days where you just feel like every little thing is against you. Big things like the shit storm the world over, smaller things like local planners giving two thumbs up to building houses on radioactive waste sites, and yet kicking off about permitted development rights,

South East Water faces £22m fine for supply failures The firm was unable to cope during high demand, Ofwat says, leading to

Ofwat £22m fine proposal for South East Water for repeated supply failures.

"Proposal" = companies with criminal convictions negotiate, may never pay.

Thames Water to pay 2024 fines by 2030 or never.

2024 fines on Yorkshire and Northumbrian Water quietly waived.

Execs never fined or prosecuted.

Adam hills, josh widdicome and Alex Brooker. Jason manford, Lou Sanders, Bella hull and Zack Polanski. The last leg.

Imagine your party has won a historic byelection.

You've had election day, a loads of interviews, held a press conference with your new MP and welcomed lots of new members.

Sleep? Nah. It's time for The Last Leg!

Dear @lucympowell.bsky.social,

I have enjoyed our exchange of letters about which of our parties is best placed to stop Reform. Hannah Spencer MP and I trust that you agree that this question has now been resolved once and for all.

Thanks,
Zack Polanski

Dear Lucy
On the eve of the by-election, your Labour party spokesperson has admitted to the Huffington Post that a
Labour party leaflet has been delivered through doors with your imprint recommending a vote for Labour
by a tactical voting organisation which does not exist.
This is deeply troubling, it is actually lying to voters. Did you approve this? Do you feel the Labour Party
in government should be held to different standards in terms of honesty to the British public?
In your last letter to me you mentioned your ‘very extensive data’ and ‘having spoken to over a third of
eligible voters’ which led you to an understanding that the by election ‘was a contest between labour and
Reform’. Clearly this latest development only tells voters one thing - you will employ any type of
political deception (or in Urdu “Dhoka” ) to win.
You will be very aware that all three real tactical voting organisations are recommending a vote for the
Greens as the best way to stop Reform. Lying to the voters, as you have been caught doing, raises the real
prospect that Reform will be the beneficiaries, something you have said that you don’t want.
As this is such an important issue, for the sake of your own reputation, I would strongly urge you to
apologise to the voters of Denton and Gorton before the polls open in the morning.”
Kind regards,
Zack Polanski
Leader of the Green Party of England and Wales

Dear @lucympowell.bsky.social,

Why did you invent a fake tactical voting company to stop the Green Party beating Reform?

I'm starting to think your letters haven't always been in good faith...

A level of humanity we're missing in our politics.

The only time I ever saw my teak tough, boxer, bouncer, brawler dad ever cry was on the day our lurcher Brandy died.

Tomorrow's episode of Bold Politics is so so rare in British politics: real people who are unafraid to just be themselves for an hour because they know they don't have to protect any vested interests.

It's time for a clearout of robots in Westminster.
