I joined The Green Party ast year in the run up to the General Election off the back of an interview Zack did on Novara Media and have been following him pretty closely and voted for him in the leadership race. He's grown from strength to strength. There's a real burgeoning hope for the left.

With all due respect, there is another choice and many many people have realised that now. The fight against fascism is not happening on some undetermined date in the autumn or whenever you get your act together it is happening now. There isn't time for all this. Please Zarah, join the Green Party.

Like "Yeah they are getting Blood Warriors except Nurgle, Ironclad except Nurgle, Rattling Guns except Nurgle, Teclis except Nurgle, Palladors with Javelins except Nurgle." Okay, sure Jan. Nurgle is getting 500 new units.

I think the new Warhammer Quest containing Nurgle thing is true, heard that from multiple different sources now. I think there is some wish listing going around too though, I saw a posy that was basically just "Nurgle is getting a Nurgle themed equivalent of every single unit in the game".

Finally, let's not let them murder our credible politicians then. Let's not just repeat the talking points. Let's stand side by side with them when they stand up to the establishment that is owned by and work for the billionaires and corporations that we all have hold accountable.

Also like affordable rent and bills, nationalised utilities, free education, cheaper public transport, better public services in general, better rights for workers, etc etc, these are not radical ideas. These are all things we should have already. Socialism isn't radical.

A passionate, charismatic leader helps (See: Zohran Mamdani). But it's not the person, it's the policy that matters. Zack is a good communicator and actually great at deflecting the bullshit and staying on message. I think the fact he was a LibDem is whatever, he changed his mind. It's a good thing.

Keir Starmer has a squeaky clean record and a nice haircut, how's that working out? The reason optics matter is because let it matter, Legacy media tells us it does and for years we have believed it. The politics we need right now needs to be policy driven.

We are going to see the Labour party and mainstream media try to do Zack exactly what they did to Jeremy Corbyn and as it stands you are currently helping them them fight that fight. I urge you to watch some interviews with Zack, listen to what he is saying now and what he stands for instead.

They have to resort to ad hominem attacks to try and discredit Zack because if they don't and more people start listening, Labour are toast. The two party system is toast. We need to be focusing on and addressing wealth inequality. The real fight is the 99% Vs the 1%.

Labour posted this attack line the moment Zack became leader. It's from a Sun article like 10 years ago. Fwiw, it was taken out of context. Your repeating it without having looked into it or what Zack stands for is exactly what Labour want because they are scared of a populist left movement.

Disabled people and OAPs are being arrested for protesting genocide while the vulnerable and marginalised are being attacked in the streets by fascists. People can't afford rent, bills, even food. We need to not get hung up on stupid shit like this. Zack is on our side, my dude.

I literally don't care at all. I knew about this 2 years ago before I joined The Greens. I voted for him because of what he's saying right now. We have all said some dumb shit in our lives, man. Our current ruling class is complicit in genocide and keep voting to make out materials conditions worse.

I dunno man, autumn budget coming up. It could definitely get worse. 😬

Yeah, that that's a weird one. Embarrassing week for Reform though, I guess. Like, I hate Rachel Reeves as much as the next Leftist but at least she didn't sing a fucking song at Conference!? 🀣

For the first time in my life, my vote counted for something!

Couldn't be happy that @zackpolanski.bsky.social is the new Green Party Leader.

He is exactly the kind of politician we need right now to stand up to Reform and the rise of the far right.

The politics of hope, not hate.

Let's go πŸ’š

Ohhhh that would be amazing! I have the Vhordrai model. I converted my dragon to be an Iridan the Witness for my Stormcast, but magnetised it all so that it could also be a Vhordrai but I had attached the riser to the seat so just need that part!

(I just followed you if that helps with a DM)

Beautiful work, man!

Can I be cheeky and ask if you still have Vhordrai's seat? Not the name himself just the seat? I've been scouring eBay for but it seems not many people building the Draconith. Will pay good money! πŸ€‘

I think SBGL was more or less a copy and paste of the Index but everything since then we have started to see them deviating, which I am here for. Always been a big fan of flavour.

It's so good to see rules in the books again and not just stats. Big fan.
