Green deputy launches leadership bid with UK ‘eco-populism’ vision | Green party

One of Green launched a senior campaign to overthrow Carla Dinier and Adrian Ramsey as the party’s leaders, saying that the party needs to be less shy and turn itself into a radical “ecosystems”.
Zach Bolanski, who has been a deputy leader since 2022, and a member of the London Association, will run from Denyer and Ramsay this summer, although they take the party to the best general election results ever last year, and won four seats.
Bolanski told the Guardian that he believed that the couple did a good job, but the vegetables needed to face the United Kingdom’s reform challenge, which has four times more membership than his party and rose to a A bloc of victories in local elections on Thursday.
“People have ended with the two old parties and we are at this dangerous moment where Nigel Varage is completely ready to fill this void,” said Bolanski. “We should never turn into Nigel Faraj. But there are things we can learn in that we are really clear to talk to people.
“There is an empty space in politics, as we are not bold as we can be. Being penitent and professionals are good qualities. But I do not think it should be the central traits.”
Polansky said that the Greens in England and Wales have about 60,000 members, while the reform has more than 220,000 members.
“I don’t think there are more people in this country that are more compatible with the reform policy than they do with The Green PartyHe said: “In fact, we know that when the policies of the Green Party are surveyed, they are often the most respectable policies, and we are the most respectable party. Why do not people join?
“We are not visible enough. I do not want to see our membership growing gradually. I want to see that we are a mass movement. There is something here about ecological disorders: they are still based on evidence, science and data never-but never lose it-but a really strong story.”
Polanksi, a former liberal democracy that only joined the Greens in 2017, is unknown outside the party, but it is increasingly used in the duties of the media. He is a former dramatic student with a background in the community theater, often follows a more severe approach than Deenyer or Ramsay.
However, it is a risky step to challenge the leadership duo who challenged electoral expectations in the quadruple seats in parliamentary seats last July, with Diner and Ramsay’s winning seats with Sian Perry, a former co -leader, and Elie’s beauty.
On Thursday’s elections, more local successes resulted, with a net profit of 41 seats. But at the same time, the projection of how the vote appears if it is held at the national level carrying vegetables in fifth place at 11 %, which is a strong performance but without clear signs of mass penetration.
Bolanski argues that the party needs to take advantage of the “tremendous” disappointment with the work government, which he has now helps in supporting the support of reform mainly.
He said: “If you are trying to create the conditions for the extreme right to rise, you will do exactly what Kiir Starmer is doing now, and it protects the wealth and power of the super wealthy.”
Under the bases of the party, the Greens usually make leadership elections every two years. However, Denyer and Ramsay were last elected in 2021, a course that extends through the schedule changes and then delay the public elections last year.
This year’s election nominations open on June 2, with a vote by party members during August.
With his leadership attempt, Polanski will face the increased scrutiny – including a slightly early and curious brush with shame. In 2013, Sun managed an article narrated that Polanski, then a hypnosis therapist, promised to use the technique to try to enlarge the breast of the female agent.
Bolanski said the idea came from the customer – who turned out to be Sun’s journalist – and that he had not received a fee. He said that instead of literal expansion, the process was supposed to help in the self -image.
However, he says he bears full responsibility: “I am an adult, and I have a choice about what I do and what I do not do. I apologized for that and I adhere to this apology.”
