Green Party leader Zack Polanski believes it’s time to focus on the future rather than his past. On a visit to Cardiff, Polanski dismissed long-standing stories about his previous career as a hypnotherapist, insisting that voters are more interested in the Green Party’s current plans. Back in 2013, The Sun reported his offer of hypnosis to a reporter claiming it could enhance her bust size—a report he’s repeatedly apologised for and called a misrepresentation.
Polanski argues that people recognise mistakes happen but are eager to discuss pressing matters, such as reducing living costs and safeguarding the NHS. Under his leadership, the Green Party is gaining momentum in Wales, with membership exceeding 8,000, and hopes to secure seats in the Senedd elections. He’s relentlessly campaigning, believing even one seat would signify success, although polls suggest they could win between five and 11 seats.
His focus is on significant issues like advocating for an immediate freeze on rent rises to ease the financial burden on tenants, alongside bringing Welsh water companies back into public control to address unjust water bills.
Polanski also backs Welsh independence, aligning with the longstanding stance of the Wales Green Party. As the May 7 election approaches, he encourages those feeling politically unrepresented to consider the Green Party as the champions of people and the planet.
In the upcoming Senedd elections, Polanski’s message is clear: a vote for the Green Party is a vote for a fairer, greener Wales, marked by social justice and environmental stewardship. Let’s keep the conversation moving forward and work towards a brighter future for Wales! 🌍💚
