Show Notes

Britain goes to the polls on Thursday - and the political map is being redrawn in real time. Daily Mail columnist Guy Adams has spent a week on the campaign trail, canvassing across Wales, and what he found should alarm both Labour and the Conservatives. Labour are losing voters to Reform on the right and the Greens on the left, while the Conservatives are fighting a "rear-guard action". But the story stealing the headlines is the Greens' extraordinary surge under Zack Polanski - a former actor and hypnotherapist who deploys social media with devastating effectiveness. Is he the hard-left Donald Trump? And as thirty Green candidates face antisemitism investigations, what dark forces has he unleashed?
