Reform were polling at 15% on 3rd July last year. They became 1st by end of April this year. That’s 10 months.
Today @greenparty.org.uk are at 15%. My guess: we can reach 1st place by August next year at the earliest.

For too long the rich have hoarded our money and run our public services into the ground.
For too long mainstream politicians have helped them do it.
