Labour promised an end to new drilling. But new powers give Energy Secretary Ed Miliband a backdoor to expand fossil fuels in the North Sea. Loopholes don’t cut carbon. No new oil and gas.

There are now 5 different options being proposed for creating new ‘unitary authorities’ across Lancashire. Each affected council is required by the Government to state their preferred option by November – only 2 months away! Here's our view. What's yours? northlancs.greenparty.org.uk/2025/09/24/l...

The truth: we need migration. The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it. Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality. Reject it. Draw the line.

If only Labour leadership were listening …

Good to see Ed Davey calling for the govt to publish the legal advice it has received on breaches of international law in the Israel-Gaza war this morning. I led a debate on this topic in June, and I repeat the calls I made then.🧵

"We're here to replace you." New Green Party Leader @zackpolanski.bsky.social makes his intentions clear in his acceptance speech.

This week 51 Israeli companies will exhibit at the DSEI arms fair in London. Israeli Govt delegates are banned, but those supplying the actual weapons for genocide are ready to sell, sell, sell. Nothing but hollow words from this Government when it comes to stopping war crimes.

A fire burned in a 'Supaskips' building in Lancaster from December 2023 to January 2024, after the company had illegally stored waste inside the building. On 18th August 2025, another fire was started. Lancashire Fire & Rescue attended with 3 fire engines and brought it under control in three hours.

Israel have bombed another hospital. Waited for medics to arrive - and then bombed again. Britain keeps selling arms to this genocidal regime. Starmer & Lammy say they're "horrified". They condemn. But they do nothing. All the war criminals must face justice.

We were asked: could we please ask the Council to tidy some paths grown with weeds? The Public Realm Department is very stretched, so Cllrs Andrew Otway & Hamish Mills spent 2 afternoons themselves - tidied all the path-edges & filled fifteen green garden-waste bags with weeds! #GreenParty #GPEW

Climate Emergency UK assessed all UK councils on the actions they’ve taken towards net zero, and Lancaster City Council has been recognised as the best performing district council in the country for climate action, for the second year running! 🧵1/7 northlancs.greenparty.org.uk/2025/08/03/l...

Reform UK & Nigel Farage have repeatedly called for proportional representation. Their 2024 General Election manifesto included a pledge to hold a referendum on it. After the May local elections, Farage reaffirmed a commitment to introduce ‘an element of proportionality into UK elections.’ 🤨 1/3

2015-2023 the fossil fuel sector received about £80bn in government support - with 1/5 of it supporting new extraction & mining. 20bn less - about £60 bn - went to renewables. The Reform Leader of Lancashire County Council says he agrees with climate science, so he should commit to climate action.

Fracking firm Cuadrilla originally should have decommissioned their site at Preston New Road near Blackpool, returning it back to farmland by 2023. Lancashire County Council must ensure Cuadrilla stops shirking its responsibilities and gets this done. drillordrop.com/2025/07/11/b...

We have re-introduced #EllasLaw to Parliament. This Bill is about the right to breathe clean air, and the right to grow up and grow old without potentially lethal harm being done to our lungs, hearts and brains by preventable air pollution. It is also about a little girl. This is Ella's story 👇

Former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert has said Israel's plan for a ‘humanitarian city’ in Rafah would create a “concentration camp” if it goes ahead. The already devastated Palestinian population cannot be subject to yet more unfathomable cruelty at the hands of Netanyahu.

Scary to see extreme heat become the norm in the UK - this will cost more and more lives. What is govt doing to protect us from these effects of climate change that are already with us? And how can they justify giving go-ahead to airport expansion which will worsen the crisis?

Dear Keir - following #PMQs today, a reminder of the letter we you sent last week after you repeated false claims about the Green Party's manifesto. Unlike Labour and the Conservatives we were honest about the need to raise taxes on the wealthiest to fund the services we all need.

Every pound spent on pursuing super-rich tax avoiders returns £14. Instead the government decide to go after disabled people and the most vulnerable. Time for Labour to make different political choices and ensure the super-rich are paying their fair share.

Talk of cutting benefits is the wrong answer to the wrong question. We have really poor public health due to deep structural inequality leading to poverty and reducing benefits will do nothing to fix it. At @citizensadvice.bsky.social in North Lancs we are seeing people frightened about this.
