I had a chat with Zack Polanski about his fairly busy first four months as Green leader, how the party can combat Reform, and why he spends an hour every day replying personally to direct messages on social media.

‘We were missing in the conversation’: how Zack Polanski hit on plan to beat Reform at their own game
This time last year Polanski was barely known outside the party. Now he’s hoping for success at May’s local elections - by taking a page from Nigel Farage’s playbook

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist.

Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it

For those justifying Starmer’s lack of condemnation as ‘diplomacy’, I give you the Mexican President

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

"These are the iron laws that have always determined global power."

A rare honest moment there from President Trump.

So does our Prime Minister believe in international law or the law of the jungle?

That's the choice here in opposing or supporting imperialism.

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

Bit weird to see people reacting as though America hasn’t pretty consistently always been a lawless colonial cowboy warmongering state.

"We're going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper, and judicious transition," Trump said

And by “we’re,” he means ExxonMobil and Chevron.

If you’re asking what is now stopping Russia from killing Zelenskyy, the answer is the same as it has been since 24th February 2022: Ukrainians. Not everything revolves around Trump and his actions.

For 20 years, the US Empire has tried to break the back of the socialist revolution in Venezuela because they refused to hand over their natural resources. This is the latest move in a decades-long campaign to shatter the resolve of the Venezuelan people, and it will fail too

Of course it's worth bearing in mind that the USA has got form here, namely the invasions of Granada in 1983 and Panama in 1989.

I’m sorry, but the rest of the world already saw this when you invaded Iraq and used the tragedy of 9 11 to do it.

Support for America declined then, and no one is being fooled now.

The American people need to wake up and start realizing all of this bullshit is being done in their name.
