The Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer, launched a scathing attack on the Green Party during Prime Minister’s Questions on Wednesday, accusing them of being "high on drugs, soft on Putin". He specifically targeted Green Party co-leader Zack Polanski for allegedly wanting to negotiate with Vladimir Putin to give up nuclear weapons.
