It's what happens when you are so scared to be called 'Far Right' that you don't actually question whether people who were always your friends and allies ( feminists, Jews) have actually mysteriously become 'far right' or are they just protecting themselves against people who are trying to remove their rights. When you are so desperate to align with the latest ' oppressed' people you fail to fail to engage in any critical thinking, you are vulnerable to bad actors who knows very well that you are naive and suffering from suicidal empathy.

Edited

True, there is a lack of critical thinking.

I am a centrist left person.

The naive student politics that the green party has been overtaken by iis devoid of any real analysis.

Their protest signs are always bulk printed by the Socialist Workers.

One wonders where the Socialist Workers get the money because they don't seem to have jobs.

Constantrunner · 12/10/2026 19:38

They do have jobs. They just build their life round the party.

"Financed independently through member dues (regular monthly direct debit subscriptions), donations, legacy gifts in wills, sales of the Socialist Worker newspaper, books, and literature, as well as revenue from events like the Marxism Festival"

"Members pay tiered monthly direct-debit subscriptions based on their income level (ranging from a few pounds for students and unemployed members up to over £150–£200 a month for higher-income earners)"

I do think an investigation into donations would be interesting. Don't know for sure be would not be surprised if foreign large donations of wasn't found. They do really campaign hard for things that are not in the British publics interest after all.

Telegraph: Pro-Palestine Greens plot to banish ‘toxic’ Caroline Lucas

Green Party activists are plotting to oust Caroline Lucas after accusing her of being an Israeli “shill”, The Telegraph can reveal.

Members of the Greens for Palestine group accused Ms Lucas, who was the party’s first MP and twice served as its leader, of being “toxic, divisive and a shill for apartheid and genocide”.

In WhatsApp messages seen by The Telegraph, members shared advice on how to submit complaints to the party’s disciplinary panel about Ms Lucas, who comes from the moderate wing of the party.

The group hopes to submit enough complaints to encourage the party to act against Ms Lucas.

Polanski has totally lost control of the party. His days are numbered.

Of course. What a nasty bunch of people they are. I hope the 4 MPs who voted against this defend her but I think Greens for Palestine have eaten the party from within. I'm glad someone seems to be leaking their WhatsApps to the press so everyone can see their vileness out in the open

An Israeli "shill"? So, in other words not in thrall to Hamas?

Yes it’s good they seem to have a “mole” within.

Jeez, if the Green Party threw out Caroline Lucas of all people, no one would be in any doubt that it wasn't the Green Party anymore. In fact, I hope it happens.

To be fair, I don’t think this bloke has anything to do whatsoever with the SWP, but he’s a multimillionaire with a proud agenda to bring down the USA and appears to fund anarchist groups. You only need a handful of these fanatics and their funding to keep these extremists groups afloat.

“Make Zionists afraid.”

, “We need to start making people who support Israel actually afraid to go out in public. We need to make all of white America afraid that everything they have stolen is going to be burned to the ground. That’s what makes them listen.”

“Israel does not deserve to exist,” Chambers told LA Magazine. “It is a false state propped up by the West.”

Sounds like a charmer and worth googling.

"Communist millionaire". I mean, he's not, is he? Like, he's last page of Animal Farm.

An amazing mind

Neverstopwondering · 13/10/2026 00:37

Just seen that Owen Jones helped zippy campaign

No wonder he lost, OJ did the same for one of our local candidates a while back. They lost too.

He is obviously the right person to have on your side whilst trying to convince the public you are a normal person that will understand the concerns of the general public 🙃

Think most people will take one look realise who is endorsing you and vote for someone else.

Be careful LHF.

He did.

Maybe Animal Farm should be compulsory reading. Though like Adrian Mole, some of the posters we argue with would just see it as a book simply about animals on a farm.
