Green Party now has one leader : Zack Polanski

[arista]

Thread's First Title: Carla Denyer says she will not
stand again as Greens co-leader


[Carla Denyer has announced she
will not stand again as the
Greens’ co-leader, breaking up
the party’s most electorally
successful leadership duo,
which delivered four MPs
at last year’s general election.

Denyer, who won the Bristol Central
seat from Labour, said in a statement
to the Guardian that she wanted
to put all her efforts into her
parliamentary role.

She has served since 2021 as
co-leader alongside Adrian Ramsay,
who was also elected as an MP last July,
for Waveney Valley.
He must now decide whether to stand
as a solo candidate
or with someone else
at the next leadership election.
The party’s deputy leader, Zack Polanski,
announced on Monday that he would stand.

However, Ramsay would not be
able to stand jointly with Polanski,
as under party rules if there is
a co-leadership, the duo cannot
be the same gender.]




What a Mess
One leader is best

Polanski won by miles

He once claimed he could increase the size of women's breasts through hypnotherapy. So he's one of the saner Green party members

This "chap" hailed the “end of white settler colonialism” on October 7

Mothin Ali defended the right of “indigenous people to fight back” after October 7, while,
on the day of the attack, he wrote on X: “White supremacist European settler
colonialism must end.”

[New Green leader Polanski vows to 'replace' Starmer's Labour]


Hold on there Zack you cocky Lad.

Nigel is to Replace Starmer

[Oliver_W]

Well, that's him damned.

Which one, neither are particularly high on the "taken seriously" scale.

Zack,
was on Politice Live Weds 11:15AM BBC2HD

The Labour MP on there
informed Zack a Vote for the green party
is a vote for Reform UK.

[arista]

Zack spoke on SkyNewsHD,
Trevor Phillips

He said he will stand for a London MP

Next May, local elections, I assume.

I wonder if every article, tweet, or forum post will include the words "real name David Paulden" ?

They do it with Tommy Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley Lennon. I'm waiting for someone to introduce Elton John and say 'real name, Reg Dwight'.

…I tried that self hypnosis all through my teenage years but the enhancements were very, very minimal I have to say…

…do you not see the difference though in for instance the name of Tommy Robinson being an assumed name/a nom de guerre …?…from my understanding, it’s not a changed name legally and not the only name that has been used at different times so when referring to that person, it’s all correctly worded…as it would be on any official documentation etc, I presume…whereas Zack Polanski’s father changed the family name to try to avoid any anti semitic feelings that their family may have experienced at the time/hence the birth of David Paulden…but he legally changed it back to his family name in displaying his pride in his Jewish heritage…there is reasoning behind and a difference in a legal name change and the ‘adoption’ of an assumed name…

Hypno Tits is what he is called on X

Let's face it, if he had this background and was a Reform member, he'd be [I]absolutely slaughtered[I]. I guess it's the Greens though and people expect them to be loonies.

[Ray.]

He's very sleazy looking. He reminds me of that old smear campaign against Nixon: 'Would you buy a used car from this man?'
