The more the right attack Zack Polanski, the more campaign money the Greens raise

The right-wing media is desperate to defeat Green leader Zack Polanski (and the hope he brings to so many). But the more it throws at him, the more he knocks it out of the park, and the more campaign money his team raises.

Attempting to protect the privilege of the rich and powerful, people like Jeremy Clarkson go after Polanski over his looks, eating habits, and other things no one really cares about. Their schoolboy bully tactics show their utter disinterest in building a brighter future for Britain. Then, all Polanski needs to do is highlight that and focus back on what people do actually care about – cutting bills, funding public services, taxing the super-rich, and challenging planetary destruction. That directs people to a hopeful vision.

And, it explains how his team has crowdfunded so much money for its election campaigning:

Keep it coming, Clarkson and co!

Polanski has clearly learned the big lesson from past media attacks on the left: don’t let them control the narrative. Address them, maybe laugh a bit at their desperation, and then emphasise your own message: cut bills, fund services, tax the rich, stop destroying humanity and the planet! It’s a simple formula. But it’s bold, too. And it works!

Bullies like picking on individuals because that’s easier. They love fear, division, and confusion. But if you build a connection with people who support you, the bullies lose. Because they can’t take on a whole movement. And that’s what Polanski has built, with his willingness to call out the bullies, focus on a hopeful message, and embrace co-operation.

The statistics speak for themselves. Green membership has skyrocketed under Polanski. He has the highest net favourability rating among both voters in general and 2024 Labour voters. And the funding to fight back against the Labour-Tory-Reform axis keeps flooding in.

The super-rich can throw all the money they want around to keep the political, economic, and media systems working in their favour. But they struggle to inspire real hope. Polanski doesn’t. And the more they go after him, the more powerful that hope gets.
