If you think Britain is struggling now, hold onto something solid. Because the Green Party, currently polling ahead of both Labour and the Conservatives, has published a programme that makes this government's failures look like a golden age of competence and order.
Start with immigration. Not controlled immigration. Not managed migration. Open borders. The Greens' own internal documents describe a system that treats every arrival as a citizen in waiting, entitled to NHS access, welfare benefits and the right to vote in all elections, including those who have never achieved settled status. A Panmure Liberum analysis estimates that under Green government, net migration would run at around 900,000 a year, adding 4.4 million people to Britain's population by 2034. Call it what it is. A demographic transformation imposed without consent.
Germany provides the evidence of what happens when a government throws open its doors and works out the consequences later. Angela Merkel's open borders decision in 2015 was greeted with the same progressive applause the Greens would generate. According to German government statistics by 2021, asylum seekers made up 2.5 percent of Germany's population but 13.1 percent of all sexual assault suspects. In 2023 there were 761 registered gang rapes, almost two every day, nearly half involving foreign suspects. Knife crimes in North Rhine-Westphalia nearly tripled between 2020 and 2023. Berlin's own police chief stated publicly that violence in the capital was young, male and had a non-German background. The lesson sits there, documented, ignored, while Zack Polanski's party proposes to repeat the experiment at four times the speed, in a country already facing an active Iranian state threat and twenty foiled terrorist plots on British soil.
Then there are the other policies. Legalised heroin and crack cocaine. The disestablishment of the Church of England, severing a constitutional settlement that has held for five centuries. A conference that descended into chaos over a motion declaring Zionism a form of racism while party WhatsApp groups contained messages describing Jews as an abomination to this planet. The abolition of immigration detention. Amnesty for every failed asylum seeker. And the scrapping of Prevent, which for all its flaws has kept people alive, at the precise moment MI5 assesses the domestic threat as the most complex it has ever faced.
Picture the Britain that emerges from a single Green parliament. A population swollen by four million, the border a memory, detention abolished, Prevent gone, heroin dispensed on the high street, the Church disestablished, campuses already hostile to Jewish students rendered ungovernable, and the IRGC, which this Labour government cannot bring itself to proscribe, operating freely through networks the state has just defunded its ability to monitor.
Labour under Starmer is a kakistocracy, paralysed by demography and incapable of naming what it can see. That is dangerous enough. The Green Party is not paralysed. It has a programme, a growing membership of 226,000, a youth wing that is the largest in Europe and a polling trajectory built on a generation of left wing progressives processed through captured institutions who have been taught to call this manifesto enlightenment. It knows exactly what it wants and it is acquiring the means to deliver it.
What is happening now will seem like order.
