The Green Party of England and Wales has today announced that its membership has surged past 100,000 members, the highest in the Party’s history. This marks over a 45% increase since Zack Polanski was elected Leader of the party last month.

The news comes as the recent polling shows Greens on 15% nationally, their highest-ever figure, and just two points behind both Labour and the Conservatives, and a week after the Greens announced they had a bigger membership than the Liberal Democrats. Since then, it has been shown that the Liberal Democrats’ membership is actually just 60,000, and the Greens have grown an additional 17,000 in a week.

I’ve just been watching some of Zack’s responses to the hypnosis stuff and his explanation seems reasonable, I’ve not found the original article but it it could have been a stitch-up. I was under the impression he made DVDs but it sounds like he just spoke to a “journalist”

I think the left are just so disappointed with Starmer that everyone seeking leadership viewed with healthy skepticism.
