Its pretty clear that the Labour 'centrists' are rattled by the rise of Zac Polanski.

Joe Dromey (Fabian Society) is now equating the populism of Polanski & Nigel Farage, arguing the Green Party of England & Wales is offering fantasy policies.

But many of those 'fantasies' have been standard Left policies for decades; this is more about Labour's move rightwards than the Greens 'fantasies' & will confirm to many why they might/should now vote Green.

@ChrisMayLA6 the Fabians are all about making sure that no left wing movement scares the money though. Just enough socialism to prevent revolution and not a drop more.
