systemctl suspend doesn't work anymore

Since latest update of polkit, systemctl suspend (and other powerstate-related commands) don't work anymore:

$ systemctl suspend
Failed to issue method call: Access denied
Failed to issue method call: Access denied

Here is some more info

$ loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID
ControlGroupHierarchy=/user
NAutoVTs=6
KillExcludeUsers=root
KillUserProcesses=no
IdleHint=yes
IdleSinceHint=0
IdleSinceHintMonotonic=0
InhibitDelayMaxUSec=5s
HandlePowerKey=poweroff
HandleSuspendKey=suspend
HandleHibernateKey=hibernate
HandleLidSwitch=ignore
PreparingForShutdown=no
PreparingForSleep=no

I removed consolekit entirely but it did not help.
