That isn't the same as a member of the leadership team involving themselves in the disciplinary process.
comment in response to post
If you don't think the policy is suitable, you can change it. That's the beauty of the Green Party isn't it? It's in the gift of members to do that. And if a sufficient majority of party agree with you, the policy will change.

And I'll reiterate, the point I'm making is not his personal position on anything. It was his failure to communicate party policy - the mark of true leadership, as that's the leader's job.

My experience is a couple of poorly handled interviews on live radio. But I guess I've missed something.
comment in response to post
You've lost me. Who is colluding? Also, I'd appreciate it if you could point me to the times Adrian has told "the party what it doesn't want to hear." I don't know of any instances where he's boldly stated his position to party members.

I don't think specifically, but suppose he shouldn't need to - if it's not part of the role, it's not part of the role.

Totally agree Ceri. A great communicator both online and in person, and a terrific on-the-ground campaigner. Heard the rumour from enough people to think it's true, so guess announcement will be soon. And you're right - so many brilliant candidates. Speaks to the great talent we have in the party 💚
comment in response to post
Thanks for that Ben. So what the OP alleges about Zack not becoming involved with disciplinary matters is actually an endorsement for acting with great integrity in delivering what is within the remit of the role and not abusing the influence it can give. Sounds like leadership material to me.
comment in response to post
Also, am I right in saying Ben that the leadership are not supposed to get involved with disciplinary matters? So "watching" and "doing nothing about it" is exactly what the leadership should do in these instances?

The problem is though that the wider public still think we're a single-issue party. I knock on a lot of doors and I hear it all the time. This hasn't changed under Adrian's leadership, Caroline's time as an MP etc., and emphasises why we need our best communicator in Zack as the leader of the party.

Zack Polanski 💯 I have the pleasure of knowing Zack - both as an astute and influential politician, and a warm and compassionate friend. He has great self-awareness - brave and bold when the platform is right for him to stand on, but humble enough to know when to give others the floor to excel on.
