if Abdul el sayed was interested in party unity he would have gone with Haley Stevens so they could endorse Mike Rogers together. instead he is sowing division by trying to win

I back Zack without reservation, but it’s important to remember this stuff is entirely natural & normal within a large, democratic political movement. It’s a party, not a cult. We have to be able to accommodate diversity of views without shitting our pants & demanding purges.
🚨 NEW: Green MP Adrian Ramsay will go public on Sunday to criticise Zack Polanski's leadership and claim the party been taken over by pro-Palestinian activists who have replaced its environmental values

The Greens gaining in the polls while the entire machinery of the Establishment are hysterically screaming at them that they don’t belong in mainstream politics has got to be the funniest thing I’ve seen for a while
The lowest vote share for Reform that we have ever recorded 🔴 Labour: 26% (+1) 🔵 Conservatives: 21% (-1) 🟦 Reform UK: 20% (-2) 🟢 Greens: 13% (+2) 🟠 Lib Dems: 9% (-1) Implied turnout: 54% Changes from 14th October [Find Out Now, 21-22nd October, N=2,381]

All poppy wearing is virtue signalling @IainDale, it's literally the whole point of wearing one. If you want to help veterans, you can just donate to H4H or the RBL, you don't need to shove poppies in my face. Same logic.
'If you want to help the people of Gaza, donate to aid organisations!' @IainDale labels wearers of the Palestinian poppy as 'virtue signalling'.

Genuine question- has anyone seen a single Palestinian or person of Palestinian origin in the UK media being asked for their opinion on whether Zionism is racism? In three weeks I’ve yet to see a single one.

People say that the Green Party doesn't talk about the environment anymore. In my big conference debrief I read out every policy we passed at Green Party Conference to prove the Green Party still cares about the environment.

I firmly believe we should embrace this take. Mamdani is the new political center, meaning anyone to his right is objectively a conservative—even The Atlantic agrees!

This commentary is disgraceful, and poses a genuine threat to the safety and security of British Jews. Support for Israel is not synonymous with the Jewish faith and to suggest otherwise is grotesquely antisemitic.
“[Saying] ‘Zionism is racism’ is offensive, it’s antisemitic and it’s dangerous” Broadcaster Jo Coburn says she “watched in horror” as the Green Party passed its motion on Zionism and criticises leader Zack Polanski's defence in his #BBCLauraK interview bbc.co.uk/news/live/c64gv8k2…

Piers posted an image, rather than a video of Polanski actually speaking. Wonder why that might be?
Zack Polanski has destroyed the Green Party as a serious political entity. He’s such a weird, deluded, nasty, and gutless piece of work.

Let me repeat what I said earlier: My late father arrived in the UK in 1966 as a legal immigrant. He and his fellow Indian immigrants didn’t claim the entire country was theirs, didn’t kick 100s of 1000s of Brits out of their homes, and didn’t set up an Indian ethno-national state in the UK. If you’re too dumb or dishonest to understand the difference between normal, legal immigration and settler colonialism, that’s on you, not me.
Mehdi Hasan was born in England. His father was born in India. He is now in America. His Indian family are in England. All of them are colonizers.

Interviewing a govt minister Hazarika shows a graph comparing young people claiming PIP to the size of our armed forces & declares it "tells a story about modern Britain" I can't even make a sarcastic comment about our fearless fourth estate, because Hazarika is a Lab politician

No state has a right to exist! That’s not ‘nonsense’ or ‘strange’. It’s true! Did Czechoslovakia have a right to exist? If so, how did we end up with Slovakia and the Czech Republic? Does the UK have a right to exist? If so, how come Scots were allowed to vote to break it up?
Jo Coburn: "He also said no state has a right to exist" Dale Vince: "That was a strange thing" Coburn: "Well its nonsense" Do Jo & Dale think Rhodesia had a right to exist? Apartheid South Africa had a right to exist? The UK has a right to exist?

Huge credit to Zack Polanski for an excellent @bbclaurak interview in the face of hostility and constant interruptions. So interesting how Laura Kuensberg's interview style changed from softball with Yvette Cooper to hostile with Zack. #bbclaurak
