Mayor Polanski? It’s more likely than you think…
With their polling surging and their membership growing rapidly, the Green Party could be contenders to take control of City Hill in 2028, argues James Ford
The Green Party are having a moment. In the few weeks since their feisty new leader, Zack Polanski AM, was elected, the Greens have been making waves. Party membership has grown to over 140,000 members. And the surge is arguably strongest in London. Last year the Greens came second in 18 London constituencies and there are rumours that the party might even take control of Hackney in next year’s borough elections. Just this week, YouGov polling found that the Green Party was the second most popular political choice for Londoners. Whilst support for Labour in the capital has plummeted to 29 per cent, the Greens have risen to 21 per cent – ahead of Reform (17 per cent), the Conservatives (17 per cent) and the Lib Dems (11 per cent).
