Robert Peston, "Are the British people wrong to want migration to come down?" Zack Polanski, "No, they aren't wrong" "But it's also true they've been pumped stories, negative stories about migration for decades now" "In fact the Prime Minister Keir Starmer said we're squeamish to talk about migration - it seems to me that we rarely talk about anything else" Robert Peston, "Sounds as if you're saying the voters are wrong" Zack Polanski, "No, I'm not" "It's just that 5% of migration is small boats but it covers 95% of the coverage we hear about" Its SO refreshing to hear a leader so positively about immigration. This kind of talk is not only healthy but better for our ALL our mental health being.

“The whole frame of the migration crisis is a racist, fascist frame.” Migrants are “not to blame” for the state of British public services, instead the answer is to point the finger at “private jets, millionaires and billionaires”, Green Party leader Zack Polanski says.

Zack Polanski, "It would be ludicrous to do that, we have for example 150,000 vacancies in the NHS" "Of course we need to train British workers as well but actually there are huge skills gaps in the green transition and the green economy, where we need to train people up: both British workers and migrants coming here looking for a home" "I think diversity is one of the best things about this country" "This country was built on migration. Of course we should celebrate people who were born here but also people who come here and make this their home too" "I think that's part of being a patriot: a caring and compassionate approach towards others" "I think that's part of being British" "Cultural coherence isn't something for politicians to do" "That's for communities to do" "We had 14 years of Conservative austerity that's destroyed integration, because we don't have community centres, we don't have arts and culture" "And we need to do that collectively" "It's for communities to create social cohesion"

“Only 5% of migration is from small boats, but it gets 95% of the headlines. It would be ludicrous to cut legal migration when we have 150,000 NHS vacancies." Zack Polanski says politicians must stop fuelling fear and start telling the truth about immigration. #Peston

President Macron, "Have the problems, the illegal migration problems of Great Britain from 9 years ago been resolved by Brexit?" "No" "British people were lied to that the problem was the European Union" "Simply put, by leaving a legal vacuum (UK leaving the Dublin agreement because of Brexit), the problem (of illegal migration) has become because of Brexit" The really sad part is that Keir Starmer does not have the courage to say this, worse he won't challenge the lies and deception of Brexit - it takes a foreign statesman, Macron, to speak truthfully to the British people

Fiona Bruce desperately tries to smear Zack Polanski and the Green Party as supporting open borders as if it is the worst thing in the world. But 56% of the UK support Free Movement. It is actually her demonisation of migration which is supported by only 20% of the UK.
