About

Zack Polanski is the current leader of the Green Party in the UK. He has recently gained attention due to the party's perceived momentum under his leadership, dubbed the "Polanski effect." This follows the party's performance in recent polls and their preparation for the upcoming Gorton and Denton byelection, where they aim to improve on their previous third-place finish. Polanski himself has made headlines for stating he has never consumed drugs or alcohol, despite advocating for drug legalization and regulation. He has also sparked debate by suggesting the UK should consider expelling US forces from British military bases and re-evaluating its relationship with NATO, advocating for reduced reliance on American military cooperation. His leadership and policy positions are contributing to the Green Party's visibility in the current political landscape.
