The Green Party of England and Wales is riding high, with membership almost doubling over the past half year and the party gaining in the opinion polls. It is a similar story for Reform UK. The "bold politics" of the Green Party's leader, Zack Polanski, are in part intended to counter Reform. Support for both parties is defined by cultural issues. In the case of Reform, by the culture war around immigration and national identity; in the case of the Green Party by the wider picture of the linked issues of social justice and climate change.
