Zack Polanski will stand as the Green party candidate in the Holborn and St Pancras byelection slated for 8 October, the party confirmed on Friday.

The announcement means local members voted to select Polanski over a surprise opponent, who ran against him from within his own party.

I'd like to see him win, but I'm pretty pessimistic about his chances.

    i just worry that the billionaire media will try and destroy him like they tried to destroy jeremy corbyn.

    its also notable that zack polanski is:

    the only jewish leader of a party

    the only pro lgbtq leader of a party

    and the only left of centre leader of a party
