Wonderfully cogent interview with George Monbiot. A must-listen if you care about society or the environment.
I had a great conversation with the wonderful @zackpolanski.bsky.social on his podcast. Do please listen in. I don't think you'll have heard anything quite like it. And there's a LOT more here than the title suggests. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/h...

“They went for pensioners, they went for the disabled, and now they’re going for people fleeing war and conflict. I am furious — this government should hang their heads in shame.”

Politics isn't working. It's time to call time on the broken culture in Westminster and have a fresh start with a fair voting system. Add your name to @electoralreform.bsky.social‬'s call to #MakeSeatsMatchVotes

Latest poll puts Greens just two points behind Labour. When I said we weren't here to be disappointed in Labour but to replace them, I meant it.

Join us and let's make hope normal again.

Kemi Badenoch blames those crossing borders for our problems. It’s a lie aimed to distract.

The real issue is a system protecting the super-rich while nurses & carers can’t make ends meet. Tax wealth fairly, fund public services properly. This is how we give Britain hope again.

The Express talking about 'their' tolerant society. Who are they kidding! Ludicrous.
I'm never actually going to need to write another comment piece again am I?

The right wing shit rags are just going to keep recruiting for us.

Folks - want a better country?

Jenrick could have visited Handsworth to listen to residents – he chose to pass through and make a judgement based on the colour of their skin. Instead of getting to know our nation of neighbours, he chose racism.

The Tories, Reform and Labour want to divide us.

The Greens say enough is enough.

A few people control our power, our public services and our wealth.

It's time to take it back.

It's crap, but it's also very revealing - how terrified must the establishment media be to keep Zack off air, when he's clearly both a great watch & a highly relevant voice?

This makes me want to fight to get his voice heard all the more!

How about you?

The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead.

This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

Labour no longer represent my values. I've joined the Greens because I believe that they can challenge Farage.

Lots of this and it's very very exciting!!!!

Let's take on this failing Labour Govenrment and take the fight to Reform.

Been politically adrift since I left Labour a while ago, and filled with dread at the growth of Reform.

Today I joined the Green Party. Zack Polanski is making me believe again. There are still good people in this country, sticking up for the right values, and I want to be among them.
