I think some of us may have forgotten that the entire point of living in a society is that each of us gives up a little so that we all gain a lot.

Who’s joining Artists for the Green Party?!

I have this silly little dream for the Green Party that someone will start a movement to create art inspired by policies.
Like, the policies are great, but tangibly they'll mean something different to everyone.
I wanna see a thousand different visions of the better future we're all fighting for 💚

The Greens are steering British politics right now.
Those still referring to a "Polanski bounce" are underestimating it.
The spike in attention after Zack became leader? A bounce.
The sustained membership growth, media appearances, polling surge? That's a movement, just getting started.

Take a bow, Green Party conference 👏
Green Party Conference 2025 just passed a motion that would Abolish Landlords!
Through a programme of unprecedented council house building, taxation and housing those who need it, a Green government would eliminate profit from a human right.
Housing for all.

"Zack Polanski is the answer to all our problems."
I disagree.
Zack is incredibly good at communicating the reality we're in, but solutions he proposes only work when we stop expecting others to fix our problems for us.
Zack is reminding us that WE are the answer to all our problems.
