> Green Party leader Zack Polanski proposed overhauling party procedures to give leaders more say over its strategic direction. The proposal followed members’ adoption of a motion calling Zionism racism. Polanski said he missed the vote because he was campaigning in the Holborn and St Pancras by-election, which Labour won, and said he would remain leader after his defeat.
