Zack Polanski is just about to speak at the London Green Party conference. He is set to tell attendees:
“The dividing lines in British Politics are clear.
“The extremist right, backed by a literal Trillionaire, who bring violence to our streets and rip out country apart.
“The Labour party - still only offering half measures with little prospect of change even with Andy Burnham. No promise of electoral reform, no promise to scrap the cruel immigration laws, no promise to end North Sea oil and Gas.
“And then there's us. There's you. Building council housing. Fixing repairs. Insourcing services after years of privatisation.
“This is no time for half baked ideas or tinkering around the edges. The scale of the crisis demands big bold change at every level - starting with local authorities. If we're going to hold back the rising fascist tide we need a cast iron commitment to doing things differently, to redesigning the economy to serve the majority, to ridding our politics of the influence of trillionaires.”
