Green Influence on Labour

Green Party Claims Growing Influence Over Labour Government Policy Decisions

Green leader Zack Polanski has stated that his party has influenced the direction of Andy Burnham's UK government over issues such as energy and foreign policy. Despite having only five Members of Parliament, Polanski claims that the Greens have influenced government decisions regarding drilling in the North Sea, climate change and Gaza. This comes as he attempts to portray his party as a key check on the Labour administration.
