Finally a party leader who gets angry about injustice. Finally some hope.
A Government of cowards.

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.

They can't get away with this.

When I was at school the entire GCSE History syllabus basically consisted of "and Britain courageously defeated the Nazis because genocide is bad."

Now it's considered strange for a party leader like @zackpolanski.bsky.social to say that genocide is bad.

What a difference 30 years makes.
"Zealously Pro Palestinian party"

Genocide is bad actually.

Yes, there is something rotten at the top of the council. It's called The Labour Party.

Time to stop giving them our union's support @unitesharon.bsky.social.

Throw our weight behind progressive left wingers like @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @zarahsultana.bsky.social instead!
😡 Blacklisting workers for union activities is despicable. 

Those who do it are breaking the law and must be held to account. 

Birmingham’s bin workers are well aware that there is something rotten at the top of the council.

If the rich do sell their assets *that's a good thing!*

The rich selling off their assets is precisely what will bring asset prices down so that ordinary people can afford them.
Presenter tries to Gotcha! Zack Polanski by telling us rich people will sell their assets to avoid a Wealth Tax.

But who are they selling them to?

Because unless it is Mr Nobody they will still be hit by a Wealth Tax.

This alone tells me @zackpolanski.bsky.social is someone I can get behind.
Zack Polanski is currently being attacked by The Daily Mail , The Daily Express, Reform and The Labour Party.

Take all the time you need to think about it.

It's worse than that. @zackpolanski.bsky.social may want to redistribute wealth to create a fairer, kinder, more hopeful society, but how can you vote for someone who [checks notes] *has teeth*?
Damn, Zack is so dangerous that he wants... hang on, let me check my notes here - trans people to be respected, drug addicts to get help rather than jailed, to protect our fucked environment and for migrants to be treated with respect... so dangerous...
"Polanski slammed” reports the Daily Express. The person doing that “slamming” is, err, Daily Express journalist Carole Malone.

And the reason? Because I want us to follow a science led public health approach to regulate drug use.

Laura Kuenssburg isn't a real journalist anyway, she wouldn't have a clue how to interview someone like @zackpolanski.bsky.social who doesn't turn up with a pre-agreed script of neoliberal talking points.
I'd actually forgotten how extraordinary it is that when I won the leadership - I wasn't interviewed as it was too close to our party conference interviewed.

And then refused a second time!

Part of the antidote to all of this is creating our own media platforms.

Hey @boldpolitics.bsky.social 👋🏼
BBC accused of 'extraordinary' anti-Green bias after party say the Laura Kuenssberg Show scrapped a promised interview with @zackpolanski.bsky.social on Sunday.

Green sources say the show also refused to interview Polanski after he was elected as leader last month

Representing Them (the 1%) Vs Us (the 99%) => "Grown up politics"

Representing Us (the 99%) Vs Them (the 1%) => "division and grievance"

That has always been *Their* language; I for one am glad to see @zackpolanski.bsky.social raising *Our* grievances!
When Labour says @zackpolanski.bsky.social is "using his platform to sow division and grievance", what they mean is that he's using it to push for justice and equality.

They *hate* when people do that.

It's a bloody good speech. No wonder they're freaking out.

Excellent stuff from @graceblakeley.substack.com. People believe that if you build more houses then the price will come down. This simplistic analysis ignores the fact that the demand side is virtually unlimited due to the super rich wanting to buy up all of the assets.
"Ending the housing crisis requires attacking one of the foundations of neoliberal capitalism: the idea that we are all little, budding capitalists just waiting for the opportunity to invest in financial markets."

People laugh, but I genuinely think that the Lib Dems *can* help to stop Farage...

Is @zackpolanski.bsky.social The Left's answer to Farage? No, the left doesn't work on personality politics like the right. The Left is *itself* the answer to Farage.

But he is the person with the intelligence, integrity and communication skills to lead the green-wing of The Left and speak for us.
I've been so despondent about the inability of politicians to answer questions with integrity and clarity, and then I watch this and, be still my heart, there's hope again. @zackpolanski.bsky.social nailing it. This is the future I want. Go Green.💚 www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ksg...

I've always thought that the portion of the money you make that gets handed out in management bonuses and shareholder dividends should be printed on your payslip alongside tax and pension deductions.
💰You’re making billions… for someone.
🏤Private companies & shareholders profit from once public utilities that SHOULD belong to us. And what do we get? Higher bills & worse services.

A couple of notes for people following this:

1. I am only talking about climate change here. Over-grazing has disastrous *ecological* consequences and as a planet we need to cut grazing roughly in half to avoid that ecological disaster.

Okay, I'll bite, mainly because the maths is interesting 🧵

Suppose the blame-it-on-the-animals brigade have their way and we erase all of the livestock from the face of the earth, leaving all of the grass on all of our savannahs, prairies, and steppes to just rot away.

It's so refreshing to hear a party leader telling people the true reason why they are struggling, rather than blaming it on the Ukraine war, or immigrants, or any of the other lies the leaders of other parties tell to convince the public not to change the system.
