Gold Standard interviewee

Polanski is deft at dodging attempts to deflect him, sticking firmly to articulating his main points and preventing them being misrepresented. He bats away false premises & logical fallacies, refusing to allow them any perceived legitimacy.
No wonder Farage so carefully avoids going up against him.

Watch a masterclass in how to conduct yourself in interviews. @zackpolanski.bsky.social is eloquent, erudite, informed, intuitive, incisive and answers every question with a measured, calm and straightforward approach.
It is refreshing to see such a positive, honest politician. #greenparty ๐Ÿ’š

Zack Polanski says Labour has 'thrown in the towel' in Gorton and Denton Speaking to the Manchester Evening News, the Green Party leader believes Hannah Spencer represents 'the future' for Gorton and Denton

Mandatory ID cards. Scrapping jury trials. Calling genocide protesters โ€œterrorists."

Thereโ€™s a strong authoritarian edge to the Labour Government. With no plan to help people, clearly thrown in the towel in Gorton & Denton.

It's Greens Vs Reform.

The only reason Labour can give why people should vote for them is to keep another party out.
When the actual opposition to Reform is the Green Party there is no reason to vote Labour at all, and their threats won't work.

Zack Polanski says Labour Party is โ€˜overโ€™ after taking โ€˜votes for grantedโ€™ The comments come ahead of the upcoming Gorton and Denton by-election with the Greens and Reform UK looking to take the seat from Labour

Labour are done.

And Reform offer no solutions - their extreme division will just make things worse.

The Green Party want to lower bills, protect our NHS and rebuild our public services.

Hannah Spencer, our local plumber, for the win! ๐Ÿ’š

It isn't just Starmer's weakness we're seeing, it's the Labour Party's The Mandelson affair is a fit of madness, the latest of many

NEW SUBSTACK: Two things can be true at once. Unless Starmer has misled anyone, it would be madness to resign over Mandelson. It's also true the way his strategy and the way he's done the job has led him, inevitably, to the moment he is in.
