He seems evil and thick in equal measure.

It seems that the people who vote for him are not all that bright either. You would think the they had grown up matured. But they come out with some fantasy nonsense about how they want everyone else to pay for free stuff for them and some keep saying for it without ever saying no.

OneTealShaker · 06/05/2026 06:22

The latest revelations about him lying about being a Red Cross spokesman sums up the left. Really well.

If he can’t work out his need to not spread lies and misinformation about the police’s actions during the arrest of a terrorist and it takes a letter from the Met and being criticised by multiple members of his own party, he’s surely not fit for a leadership role. This is exactly the same type of knee jerk unthinking reaction we see in Trump. Idiot

He used to pretend he could hypnotise women into growing bigger breasts. He makes Trump look like Einstein.

To be fair Polanski might be too thick to be deliberately evil. But he certainly helps evil to be done.

Dave is a one-trick grievance pony.

Hes simply making the most of his 15 minutes of notoriety.

Twiglets1 · 06/05/2026 06:41

At this point he is becoming a liability to the Green party.

I agree. He's a fool, and he's being used.

Being used but also a user given that he previously charged gullible women for hypnosis to increase their breast size.

Definitely! Now we hear that he's not a qualified hypnotherapist, according to the Guardian. Plus more than 30 Green candudates are being investigated for hate. Very murky.

I mean it’s coming to something if the Guardian are criticising the Greens Party.

Im glad it’s transpired he wasn’t a registered hypnotherapist meaning he probably had zero training or oversight - he was bringing the profession into disrepute. The man is a charlatan, he’s an arrogant twat that thinks he can persuade people of anything. Lying doesn’t seem to bother him, how can anyone trust what he’s saying. Mothin has distanced himself, Zach was always going to be the sacrificial lamb. He’s basically Del Boys evil twin!

Main comments so far: the press are right wing media and are printing lies about me

More and more people are dying of dangerous drugs so do we want to have them dying or going to somewhere they can take drugs more safely if you gave a serious addiction

(is there a safe way to do nitaznes?)

OneTealShaker · 06/05/2026 08:26

He’s an absolute gift. Hope he stays in his role. Keep the weirdos from power.

Lying about something that someone will eventually check either stupid of foolish.

Either way, not a good look.

ShockingBritain · 06/05/2026 09:09

Is he actually able to tell the truth?

There are several liabilities in the Green Party, all those antisemites aren't helping. The men in dresses are women brigade dont help either.

Any of them actually care for the environment?

I just can’t understand how anyone is contemplating voting for them. Their leader appears to be a minimiser (except when it comes to breasts, I bet he got off on that session talking to a woman about her breast getting bigger and bigger), all the appalling antisemitism recognised by everyone except Zach the anointed one and his disciples (it’s all in the imagination don’t you know).

Pretending he had a role in a charity and using this to raise funds via go fund me appears to be fraud (wonder if the police and GoFundMe will investigate - allowing lies will certainly undermine the company’s credibility).

What is his view on those in his party arrested for anti semitism

Lying about being a member of the General Council of Hypnotherapy- surely this is fraud again, wonder if they are looking at legal action having brought the profession into disrepute (no registered hypnotherapist would have done what he did and totally contravenes training and guidelines)

Look at the distance LGBTQ refuser Mothin Ali is creating from him.

The man (sorry if I’m assuming his gender) is utterly ridiculous and clearly (now by his own admission) is a fraud.

Bye bye Zach (will miss the comedy but not the antisemitism enablement or the misogyny)

Despite being a shield for their perverts and antisemites (obviously he isn't a pervert for being gay, but many modern types of perversion try to gain validity and respectability by hanging on to the coattails of LGB), he does seem to have led them off a cliff somewhat. I guess the antisemites just couldn't control themselves, and it does look as though Jew hatred is starting to become a bit less fashionable.

I was thinking exactly the same. The Guardian are being critical! Things can't be good.

I think they massively miscalculated. They wrapped it in feeling sad about Gaza, or turning that attacker into a victim. Decent people, however, are horrified at the increase in antisemitism and how it's been enabled. The Met Police incident wasn't a George Floyd moment and the attacking of British Jews isn't anti colonial or an "act of resistance".

Well yes. Ali has already said there Islamophobia in the green party. He ended up being mobbed by TRAs including India Willoughby as he's still not signed the LGBTQ pledge.

Another (who seems motivated by Gaza) is already grumbling that the greens and Keffiyeh left are happy to take votes and support on Gaza from the Muslim community but don't want their views on say drug legalization or prostitution

I mean it’s a marriage made in hell. If you’re a devout Muslim and live an Islamic way of life how on earth could you vote Green? I just don’t get it. People are entitled, of course to hold whatever private beliefs they want but if drinking alcohol and doing drugs, and engaging in homosexual activity are prohibited in Islam why would they vote for a party led by a Gay man in a homosexual relationship ( I have no issue with that myself obviously) who what to legalise drugs. As a matter of interest I asked AI to summarise the conflicts and alignment of the Islamic Faith and the Green Party manifesto. There certainly appears much more conflict than alignment - how on earth do you square that circle without compromising on faith?
AI summary

  1. Social and Ethical Policies

LGBTQ+ Rights and Self-ID: The Green Party actively supports self-identification for trans and non-binary people and advocates for LGBTQ+ rights. Islam strictly prohibits homosexuality and adheres to traditional binary gender roles, with many Muslims finding gay marriage and trans rights against their religious tenets.
Assisted Dying: The Green Party is in favor of legalizing and regulating assisted dying. In Islam, all life is considered sacred and predetermined by Allah, making euthanasia or assisted suicide strictly prohibited (haram).
Drug Legalization: The Green Party supports legalizing and regulating all drugs, including Class A substances. Islam prohibits the consumption of intoxicants (drugs and alcohol) entirely.
Decriminalising Sex Work: The Green party supports the decriminalisation of sex work, while prostitution is considered haram (forbidden) in Islam. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

  1. Legal and Financial Policies

Interest on Debt (Riba): The Green Party focuses on economic changes such as wealth taxes. Islamic law strictly prohibits Riba (usury or interest) in all forms. While not directly contradictory to a tax policy, the mainstream financial systems promoted in Western policies usually involve interest-based banking, which is forbidden in Islam.
Gambling/Lottery: Green policies generally manage or regulate the lottery and gambling. Gambling is a major sin in Islam. 1, 2, 3, 4]

  1. Religious and Civil Liberty Tensions

Public Expression of Faith: While the Green Party often defends religious freedom, such as the right to pray publicly, recent political debate has highlighted tensions between secular, progressive values and the public manifestation of conservative religious beliefs (e.g., gender separation in spaces). 1, 2]
Shared Goals
Despite these conflicts, some areas align:
Environmentalism: Islamic principles emphasize Khalifah (stewardship of the earth), and Islamic scholars have issued fatwas against activities that cause ecological damage.
Economic Inequality: Both parties are generally critical of extreme wealth disparities. 1, 2, 3]

Religious freedoms are the foundation of our democracy say Greens - Green Party

Responding to Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch’s comments on public Muslim prayers, Green Party Leader and Deputy Leaders, Zack Polanski, Mothin Ali and Rachel Millward have released a joint statement: “We stand in solidarity with those from our religiou...

Interestingly I asked AI to compare the beliefs and values of Islam and Conservative policy it appears apart from some economic and foreign policies Islam is actually my of a bedfellow with the Tories than the Greens
Key Alignments

  • Social & Family Morality: Both generally prioritize traditional family structures and the sanctity of marriage. There is shared skepticism toward progressive social reforms, particularly regarding LGBTQ+ curricula in schools and gender theory.
  • Religious Freedom: Conservative emphasis on protecting the rights of religious institutions to operate according to their tenets aligns with the Islamic desire to maintain a religious identity in public and private life.
  • Traditional Education: Both sides often value a traditional approach to education that focuses on moral development and parental involvement in a child's upbringing.
  • Law and Order: There is often shared ground on maintaining social stability and a structured legal order to prevent social unrest.

Key Differences

  • Economic Justice vs. Capitalism: While Islam supports private property, it explicitly prohibits usury (riba) and mandates wealth redistribution (zakat). Conservative policies often favour unregulated markets, whereas Islamic economics emphasises communal welfare and ethics.
  • Nationalism vs. Global Ummah: Many conservative parties adopt nationalist or "nativist" rhetoricthat can be exclusionary. This often clashes with the Islamic concept of the Ummah (a global community of believers) and can lead to hostility or perceptions of Muslims as a "threat" to national identity.
  • Social Safety Nets: Islamic principles strongly advocate for care for the poor and vulnerable as a divine mandate. This aligns more closely with left-leaning social welfare policies than with conservative fiscal austerity.
  • Foreign Policy: Tensions frequently arise over Western conservative support for certain geopolitical alliances or interventions in the Middle East, particularly regarding the Palestinian cause.

It would appear that a more centrist political system would align better with Islam than the kind of extremism advocated by Polenski and Farage.
