Zack Polanski unveiled as the Attitude 101 'Trailblazer of the Year 2026' – as Green Party leader talks ‘bold politics’ and re-imagining of capitalism (EXCLUSIVE)
Polanski says his determination to speak for a disaffected electorate came from frustration with decades of political evasiveness.

With polls and membership at an all-time high, the Green party are having a moment – and it’s largely down to their charismatic (if slightly cheesy) new leader. Can he really pull off a socialist revolution?

Keir Starmer knew that Peter Mandelson continued his close relationship with Jeffrey Epstein after Epstein's conviction for child sex offences.
He brought him into the heart of the Labour government anyway.

Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this Government.
Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.’
I've written to Wes Streeting urging him to ditch this dangerous deal.

One of my favourite past times at the moment is watching a Labour Party schooled in a politics of an age gone by try to grasp (and attack) Greens doing grassroots democracy differently and then not understand why none of their attacks land.
