Bets on what will happen?

Third, I am off to London this morning to record a podcast with Zack Polanski. At the very least, this will be interesting. I have met more leaders of the Green Party than any other UK political party over the last few decades, and co-authored with one (Caroline Lucas). I have not met Zack before. I’m curious as to the questions he will ask me, and I’ve been given no indication in advance. The question at the back of my mind will be very clear. Throughout the interview, I will be looking for one indication, which is whether or not he is looking for a new paradigm. That’s what we need. Is there a chance that he is looking to frame it? There is no perfect candidate. I just hope that somebody wants to, and he does at least have the chance to talk about it.

Mine is that as Zack won’t bow in obeisance therefore he’ll not be the Messiah but a very naughty boy.

Either that or “arise, Lord Sudcup”.

Murphy only seems to have those two settings for people; if we’re not sycophants, we’re evil.

The question at the back of my mind will be very clear. 

Presumably that question involves vermine….

I seriously doubt that Spud can rein in his lunacy and malice long enough to have an extended civil conversation with anyone, except an outright sycophant. I wonder how long it will take Zack to realise he’s a total duffer?

How would a total duffer like Zack realise that Spud is a total duffer? They both have an IQ in double figures, if that. It will be a clash – or bonding – of two massively inflated, moronic egos…

My initial impression is that Zack Polanski is genuinely a sixpence short of a shilling. So, this time, Murphy may have found his supplier of ermine.
I do feel we really are at the end of times for our country.

yup. A lot of greens are idle rich. Can’t see them enthusiastic about the Taxing Rich Report.

Some greens may be idle rich, but the membership voted overwhelmingly for socialist nutjob, Zack.

I’m not an education or job snob, but have a gander at Polanski’s CV and tell me if this is a leader of men*:

Professional background
Performer and theatre artist: After studying drama at Aberystwyth University and in Atlanta, Polanski worked as an immersive and community theatre actor. He was involved with productions at the Tower of London and the Peaky Blinders immersive experience. He also sang for the London International Gospel Choir.

Hypnotherapist: Polanski worked as a hypnotherapist on Harley Street. In 2013, he was involved in a controversial story with The Sun related to a session he conducted. He later apologized for the incident, saying he was misrepresented.

Gig economy and public service: Before focusing on his political career, Polanski took on a variety of roles in the gig economy, including working in schools, prisons, nightclubs, and hospitality. He also has experience as a youth worker and mental health counselor.

*I mean, apart from leading them into the bushes.

No-one who is working in acquisitions, dining at Dorsia and has tasteful business cards is voting Green.

I expect he will loosen up Zack’s arse with his tongue before shoving a copy of the taxing wealth report up it. They will agree that flying should be severely limited (except when convenient for emeritus potatoes. He will proclaim on his blog that Zack agreed with him on everything, he is the messiah and then will get ignored. Followed by, in 6 months, calling him wrong, a fascist and proclaiming his new collaboration with Corbyn’s crazys

Podcast- Green Eyes.

Zach- what colour spoons.do you like?
Richard- quantum.
Zach- eh?
Richard. A spoon’s colour remains in a super position of all possible colours until the Quantum State measures it and decide its colour.
Zach- how does the state do that?
Richard- I could show you but i’d have to charge. Yes.
Zach- Yes?
Richard- yes i accept – Green Spoons it is. They shall be grown on my MMTree.(TM) and you will know my name is the Lord, when i lay my vengeance upon you!
etc etc .

That’s brilliant, made me laugh. Of course, you realise that there is no spoon.

This will probably be the least important meeting in London today. If not any day. Less important than two dossers meeting on the Embankment & sharing a fag one found half smoked in the gutter. It’s only importance could be if history recorded it as the least important meeting of the century.

My view of the Green Party is so low that I suspect this could be a match made in heaven.

We haven’t had a full breakdown yet but it appears that the conversation went something like this:

Zack – I agree with everything you say because you are telling me everything I want to hear.

Tax Potato – Much to agree with
