.. add to that xenophobia and racism and they only need a dose of misogyny and homophobia and they will have targeted every minority that could do with a helping hand

Weak is when we betray our vision in the face of pressure. This government, like the last one, has no vision - only self-preservation. And they are spectacularly bad at that

Nobody knows what 'the left' or 'the right' actually mean. Largely because there are many other dimensions to politics. Stalin and Hitler may have been pretty similar, but Zapata and Friedman not so much

Tories are no longer a real option. 'Would it be better under a Green party that is not in hock to the markets?'. That is the option. Alongside, 'Does Labour have a cat in hell's chance of holding off Reform?'

Still a low bar. There are now genuine options to vote for if you want to put ordinary people before the wealthy

"From trans rights to a party that backs renters over landlords, the fight for maximum member democracy matters so we can build a party led by its members, not MPs". Sounds familiar!

Labour has a huge majority. Why are they just tinkering at the edges of fixing 50 years of decline? While at the same time doing a whole host of things that people find abhorrent!

And rightly so. However, while Zack is a superb orator, everything he says is based on Green party policies that are developed by experts within the membership and democratically chosen. The policy manual runs to hundreds of pages. Unlike some 'orators' what he says is based on a lot of detail

Everything Zack voices is based in developed Green party policies. They run to hundreds of pages and constantly being rewritten and updated as a result of member democracy. Snappy answers are what cuts through in the media. However, his job is made easier because he knows what the party vision is

Unfortunately, the PM hasn't said it even in the understated British code of irony that we all understand - because he's weak and self-orientated

When Starmer goes, the Labour party will split three ways - Blue, soft left and socialist - and there's not a lot of support left to split
