The Telegraph.

As the Greens surge in the polls ahead of the local elections are some of the party's policies not just bonkers but downright racist.

Ellie Chans, the MP for North Herefordshire, defends her party's policies,

but the former deputy leader, Dr Shirar Ali, tells us that Greens are becoming a danger to society.

Welcome to The Daily Tea with me, Camilla Tomini, and me Tim Stanley.

Thank you. Camilla, the Green Party, almost overnight, is polling incredibly well.

It's probably going to do very well in the local elections, especially in London.

And we are talking now seriously about a Green Party coalition in the future.

Who would have thunk it? Right. So we've obviously got to start to ask, what does this party

really want to do? Who runs it? What's it all about?

Yes. And we need to probe some allegations made

against the Greens that they are inherently anti-Semitic because of their policies on Gaza,

that some of the people they've had in the membership and indeed standing as councillors

have expressed some pretty dodgy views, that some of their economic plans are downright crazy, and of course,

probe that infamous Zach Polanski, I Can Make Your Breast Grow Bigger Incident, a serious journalism

on this podcast as ever.

So we're basically going to get the case for the Greens and against.

But we're going to start with against.

Yes.

We're going to speak to Dr. Shirar Ali, a former deputy leader and a spokesman of the party who has recently been expelled.

And do stay tuned because it's basically like a return to the 80s where I, as a vowed Thatcherite and capitalist, take on Ms. Chowns,

who I'd say is at the opposite end of my political spectrum.
