LOL! A bunch of well-off liberals struggling to comprehend the appeal of someone proposing change to a system out of which they've all done very well. Maybe consider offering some diversity on your podcast lads. This just looks like a middle class midlife support group

Zack Polanski has demonstrated, as Corbyn did in 2017, that there's a huge public appetite for left-green policies. Take public ownership of utilities, with water as the prime example. Since Starmer-McSweeny's crew rid Labour of those of us who want them, what do you expect?

They demonstrated they’d not bothered to read @TheGreenParty policies or listen to anything Polanski’s said, opining based on rage-baiting from the rags that have helped these four prove just how loudly mediocrity can be plattfotmed if from the right socio-economic background.

Shockingly uninformed, and stating assumptions as facts. 1. Most wealth is in assets which can’t be moved. 2. You can’t have climate justice w/o economic, social & racial justice 3. Taxing extreme wealth doesn’t mean you hate aspiration, it mesns you hate INEQUALITY!

So.... Highest polling ever. Highest membership ever. On course to win more seats than ever at the next G.E If I pretend to forget everything I know about Politics or Sociology do I get to go an Times Radio? Another deluded white, middle-aged man talking sh*te on a major platform

I joined the greens in 2014, they already had these policies in their Policies for a Sustainable Society document and their 2015 manifesto. Zack joined in 2017. The difference is they're now more vocal about them. All you've done is shown how litttle you know about the Greens.

I voted Green in last GE because Starmer had taken Labour too far right and I don't trust him. I'm thrilled with the direction Greens are going. Last GE I voted because I didn't know who else to vote for, next time it will be a definite vote for Green Party. Get over yourselves

Absolute middle class bollox.These are the people who are holding the U.K. back & protecting the status quo for their rich masters. The U.K. needs to ditch this self serving pompous attitude & get real. We need to drag ourselves out of the cesspit of Thatcherism.
