It's time to tax the rich.

'Three-quarters of people support a wealth tax – yet none of the establishment parties will touch it. So parts of the media close ranks when the vast wealth of their owners and the policies of their friends in Westminster come under threat.'

“…What do I want from COP30? I want leaders who will look their children in the eye and say: We chose courage. We stopped subsidising destruction. We stood with the global majority who did not cause this crisis...” - Zack Polanski

Yes! Exactly! Well said, Zack
Let's stop subsidising destruction.

This Govenrment need to stop standing on the side of polluters and instead tackle the cost of living crisis.

Some of my thoughts on COP 30 👇🏼

Finally … FINALLY! … but ONLY because if the pressure being put on Rachel Reeves / Labour by Zack Polanski and the Green Party. And he sounds a sensible note of caution - wait and see if they actually do it. 🙏
If this is true - this should have happened a long time ago.

The Green Party alongside campaigners have been calling for this - and it's good to see maybe they've finally listened.

Will reserve relief for all children being lifted out of poverty until we know it's happening.
NEW: Rachel Reeves signals she intends to remove the two-child cap *in full*

"I don't think a child should be penalised because they're in a bigger family through no fault of their own," she tells BBC.

🗣 @zackpolanski.bsky.social: "[Attacks on me] are a product of a political and media establishment rattled by a party that’s growing fast and willing to say the unsayable: that our country has been hijacked by those interested only in serving the super-wealthy."

Our entire political conversation - under a labour government - has taken a huge shift to the right.

We can't let this be normalised.

This is how you speak when you know you are simply being honest and you are not interested in their nonsense. Unapologetic for his beliefs, compassionate and intelligent.

If you're unsure what Zack stands for, or whether you want to join the Green party, then please take 5 minutes of your time to read this. Hopefully it can clarify some things & show why he & The Greens, are a true viable alternative.

This is a great summary of what's going on in particular sections of the news media. It's obvious that the only real issue that the tabloid media has with Zack Polanski's mouth is that he uses it to say that we should lift up people who are struggling instead of the rich.

Every personal attack.

Every attempt to distract or to divide.

It energises, strengthens and empowers our movement.

Lower bills. Tax billionaires. Join us.
