Zack Polanski telling it like it is

Crikeyalmighty · 08/02/2026 22:38

Just as much of a self serving weirdo as Farage, except from the other angle - I don’t disagree with some policies , EU etc, I disagree with lots of others and personally I don’t think they could run a piss up in a brewery , too many people not in the real world - and I’m not a right winger!

This is a guy with an ordinary British name who adopted a foreign-sounding name because... I dunno, that's cooler now? I don't think he's necessarily the best guide to how anything is.

You got that wrong. Polanski was his original name, he reverted to it.

He's not perfect, nobody is, but he's pretty good by politician standards.

Polanski is his family's original name which they changed because of antisemitism. He adopted it to reclaim his Jewish heritage.

There is a lot to despise about Zack Polanski and much of what he says is ripe for mockery.

The change of name is the only thing about him that I'm happy to defend.

And the key words here are "over a decade ago before he joined the Green Party.."

He was born in 1982..

He joined the Green Party in 2017..

The top one percent pay 30% of tax in the UK. If they leave we will lose a lot. It’s not trickle down economics here @Dayglobooit’s tax revenue we will lose out on.

I wish they would support more small and medium sized businesses. I' m sick of these big business so and so threatening to leave. It's not just a question of them paying or not paying taxes, its also that they want their pound of flesh in terms of interfering behind the scenes. They want power and influence in a country whose citizens they dont give a stuff about. I mean. Just look what they've done to the housing market in London ..And that's just one example.

That's completely untrue though.
He's explained clearly what happened. He used to work with performers struggling with body image, to improve their self-esteem. The Sun approached him and asked him to speak about using hypnosis to increase boob size. He said he didn't agree with that, and would only agree if they explained he didn't do that, and certainly didn't charge for it. They ignored him, wrote the article saying it's something he did, and that he charged £250! Which was all lies! He apologised and explained the following day. Over a decade before he became a politician, or even joined The Green Party.
The establishment are threatened by him, so they're smearing him, just as they did Jeremy Corbyn.

PS, I don't agree with his stance on trans issues. But that's a separate matter. I don't like to see people slandered, and the hypno-boob allegations are pure slander.

Again - I will never vote for this party so long as they spout anti-woman shit like this.

as for the trans woman policies - I don't like all the policies for any of the parties. I have to weigh up NHS or trans woman and selfishly i'll go with keeping the NHS

the disparity of wealth is a problem to a thriving economy - if one man has all the money and the other 99 don't have any money, then an economy will struggle but if you increase wages of the 99 men then they will spend more and the economy will thrive. Whilst you can make the 99 men rich by making the one man poor - you can pay fair wages so everyone has money to spend

Yes but currently the rich man pays slave wages and buys a yacht with the excess profits.

I beg to differ. You can definitely make poor people richer by taxing unnecessary levels of greed. Trickle down economics does not work.

Saw him on QT tonight alongside that Zya bloke from.Reform. Thought Zack was very credible compared to the other panellists. How Reform think they will balance the books with their pie in the sky policies is anyone's guess.

Just seen party political broadcast by the Green Party. Zack Polanski telling it like it is. Billionaires taking rhe pee out of the rest of us while they make money for doing nothing. And if we tax them we get told they' ll leave. Well good. I'll buy them a ticket and give them a map. At last a politician who isn't mealy mouthed. Am I right or am I right. Stuff Reform. Long live Zack.

ZP is a controlling, men’s rights activist - banning green women’s groups from their own party conference. Can’t believe I was once a member of this anti-science, authoritarian organisation.

(More) lawsuits on the horizon, and the litigants will, I hope, win (again).

The Green Party who support men's rights and trans women's rights are not a party for me. I support women's rights so cannot give them my vote.

Also there is a wise old saying: You cannot make poor men richer by making rich men poorer.

Zack Polanski makes Keir Starmer look competent. And that is some achievement.

I beg to differ. You can definitely make poor people richer by taxing unnecessary levels of greed. Trickle down economics does not work.

There is a housing crisis because we don’t built anywhere near enough houses. That is largely due to the fact that it’s almost impossible to build anything due to NIMBYs.

And the Greens are BANANAs (Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anybody).

Imagine opposing an infrastructure project designed to provide a viable, clean alternative to short-haul flights and to boost rail capacity so that people can switch from their cars...

It’s a question of balance in the world isn’t it. You can denounce a whole party’s politics over one element or you could think, well, on balance let’s take the climate and inequality seriously first and foremost.

I remain to be convinced that GPEW have got a solution for either. Let alone that they might actually prioritise the environment. It barely gets a mention at the conference.
