This is a very interesting intervention in the Greens. Polanski is a strong communicator.
Personally I think it would make sense for the Greens to have one leader rather than two - the co-leadership model equates to less than the sum of its parts at the moment

@MartinSLewis is right to mention that energy bills are going up but he doesn't mention the root cause - that we allow the global price of fossil gas to set the price of the energy we make from the wind and sun. If we ‘break the link’ we can lower energy bills.

It's great TV watching these CNBC analysts realize there is no "theory" on TV in real time and they can't even invent one. One just said "They're burning down the house to cook a steak." There's a phone ringing off the hook in the background no one's picking up. It's chaos, I recommend it.

The same thing happened with the winter fuel payment cut.
Will the alleged savings materialise? The impact on the NHS, GPs, families, people?
Lack of impact assessment is a good reason to vote against the cuts.
