Green Party leader suggested that hynosis could increase breast size by up to 4 inches! 😂

Boobgate. Is this Party just out for giggles? Lighthearted touch to round up disenfranchised voters.

Afterall, they also claim men can become women so 🤷

Are you talking about something that has been dug up from 13 years ago?

It's quite funny how the Green Parrty's by election win has put the wind up so many people they are just desperate.to discredit the Greens.

SpringWithWinterWeather · 13/03/2026 13:41

They are discussing on Matt Albright, strange leader. Ex actor , ex hypnotist. Maybe, he'll hypnotist the electorate 😉

Yes, they are talking now, apparently he said he apologised, but no record of it.

Like any politician people look into what they said.

I think they will discredit themselves with the trans women are women, end the Trident nuclear deterrent programme, legalise cannabis, stop all new fossil fuel extractions and cancel recently issued licences then spend £40 billion to decarbonise (where's that being raised from?).

However looking at their policies, I like some of them.

I find him nearly as untrustworthy and insincere as Farage.
He’s just another populist spouting overly simplistic soundbites about complex issues and has the whiff of a grifter.

FlapperFlamingo · 13/03/2026 14:17

Well if it I'd vote green just to downsize my boobs!

Given he seemed to be charging for the hypnosis (to increase his clients’ breast size) I think ‘whiff of a grifter’ is quite generous!

I think his claim was just to increase size of boob's. Maybe he hadn't considered some women might wish to decrease the size 😂

The Greens don’t need our help to discredit them.

It’s such an amusing story it’s worth a rerun, even if Hypnotits wasn’t proposing he’d make a great Prime Minister

I thought it was an odd story with strange claims. Probably why its being talked about. He believed it when he promoted it.

There's this thing that humans do as we age and it's called maturing, changing and learning.

We all did and said stupid shit 12 years ago. We're just lucky it isn't in the public eye!

In today's world, I'm much more concerned about who thinks AI generated shit is real and keeps sharing it online.

ColinOfficeTrolley · 13/03/2026 14:30

Dave the grifter.

I like some of their policies. I just don't like him.

Onlyontuesday · 13/03/2026 14:31

Oh fgs. It was a silly piece in a tabloid. The Sun journalist approached him to ask about hypnosis to increase her breast size, and she reported it worked (!). The day after the article was published Polanski went on the radio to say the article misrepresented him and his work.

But if we're drudging up things from years ago, can we talk about Farage's repulsive racist and fascist comments please? I'm far more concerned about these.

When you explain it like that, it says more about the journalist than it does about him! I can't believe people even clicked on the article or bought the paper. Is this our British culture? 🤣 Any old shit for a story.

Boring tits don't sell papers.

Dragonasaurus · 13/03/2026 14:38

They played his radio interview on R5 yesterday. He wasn’t saying it was misrepresentation. He was even asked directly if he believed it - weasel words politician’s answer (prescient!)

Anyone who, as an adult, has grifted this badly (and publicly) is not fit to be a leader in this country - and I wouldn’t offer that role to Farage either

Psychosislotus · 13/03/2026 14:44

No idea why people say 12/13 years ago is a long time!

I am only mid 30s and 2013 feels like yesterday. No idea where the time has gone.

But yes I am a similar age to this man. So he would have been about 23. That’s pretty stupid. You know there’s doctors that age saving people’s lives and intelligent people in all manor of professions.

Surely you can think both parties and both leaders are appalling? They are both dangerous populist parties.

Why does slating Zak Polankski lead to accusations that you like Reform?

If this piece of ancient bollocks is being dug up and plastered all over the media, it just goes to show that some people in some political parties (no names, no pack drill) have been seriously, seriously spooked by Hannah the Plumber's success.

Actually he didn't. Have you actually heard his interview? It was played today. He seriously believed it worked 😂 it was a funny news piece, a break from the war and oil prices.

Because they're such a serious and credible party
