Energy insecurity. Higher bills. Exposure to catastrophic economic consequences of Trump's wars. That's what happens when you fail to shift fast enough to renewables, and cut back on support for clean energy. Let's cut bills & create jobs through a clean power revolution.

Some wise words from Adam here. The Greens have a real shot in this by-election but canvassers may be missing a trick if they aren’t explaining to voters how a Green victory will shake up Westminster for the better, rather than just saying “vote for us to beat Reform”. I hope they’re doing both!

For Greens to win in Gorton and Denton, they must rage against the political machine. Me for @bylinetimes.bsky.social: www.bylinesupplement.com/p/for-the-gr...

NEW: Suella Braverman has defected to Reform UK, shocking the many people who were sure that she had already.

By 2029, @zackpolanski.bsky.social is gonna be doing backflips off multistorey car parks while railing against billionaires in iambic pentameter

It is the source of so many of our evils: the astonishing concentration of wealth in the hands of a very few, and the immense political power that gives them. We cannot solve our problems until we tackle it. This week's column. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage

I interviewed Harjeet for @newint.bsky.social last year, about how countries of the Global North need to do more to support the South’s energy transition. Awful to see this kind of sensible policy advocacy targeted by the state. Solidarity with Harjeet and his colleagues. newint.org/energy/2025/...

I am so so delighted that Cllr Ed Mundy has joined the Green Party. This takes us up to 9 councillors at Oxford City Council. Ed is a hugely experienced and principled councillor who will be a huge asset to @oxfordgreenparty.bsky.social Welcome Ed!

At a church in Minneapolis that is hosting an anti-ICE singing vigil, which will later process through the neighborhood. They sing: “This is for our neighbors who are locked inside, together we will abolish ICE.”

I’ve heard from campaigners in a couple of recent council by-elections here in Cardiff that they’re finding surprising numbers of people wavering between Green and Reform. They’re obviously and rightly angry at the status quo. Time to offer them ambition and hope, not fear and despair.

I spent a lot of time in 2025 working towards this - so happy that the money is secured and the installation work will (everything crossed) start soon! Huge thanks to everyone who contributed to this effort, it’s such a well-used building and these improvements should make a real difference.

One of the hardest things to gain in progressive politics is attention. I think the Greens might have cracked the code…

Alarmed to hear Rachel Reeves talking about "selling government assets we no longer have any use for" Look at everything that's been stolen from YOU since 2010 👇👇👇 *We need MORE publicly owned assets not fewer* to "break the cycle of austerity" #Budget2025 www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XN4...

it's so good to hear a british politician on the main bbc news platforms actually saying this stuff though. like we just got used to it not happening for years

My latest column in NI: resistance to fossil fuels is very much alive!

Love the Clarion.

Looking forward to seeing more data on this, but it sounds promising!

British.

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia. Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?

Excited that the Oxford Congestion Charge means that the 3/3A will now run to the station!! Amongst a whole host of other bus improvements.

More of this sort of thing please.

Genuinely refreshing to hear a politician say these things.

"My school saves thousands of pounds every year from those solar panels." The TUC directly takes on Reform, a party funded by the fossil fuel Industry. Posted on IG by tradesunioncongress

Nigel Farage is the biggest charlatan in British political history. And here's what his constitutents in Clacton really think:

Do you want a railway that works for people not profit? 🚆 The good news is there’s lots of MPs who agree. 👍🏼 We were in parliament today with Chris Hinchliffe MP, Martin Wrigley MP and some fantastic rail experts to launch our vision for the railways bill. Check out the report below 👇🏼

Fascinating paper using the unique circumstances of Starmer's "Islands of Strangers" speech falling in the middle of BESIP fieldwork to assess its impact. Reduced Labour support + no evidence of reduced support for Reform UK. The latest of many studies suggesting that accommodation doesn't work.

🚨New Research 🚨 Ahead of the release of Wave 30 of the BES Internet Panel, the team has examined Labour's decline since the 2024 GE. Labour's support has splintered into mostly indecision or left-liberal parties, but they've also lost their few right-wing voters. 🧵⬇️ tinyurl.com/3m62exph

'This country needs migrants' Zack Polanski, the new leader of the Green Party in England and Wales, speaks to #BBCBreakfast about his views on immigration

Those who can channel our anger at 15 years of misrule, who can speak the language of outrage and hope, are the politicians of the moment. They will contribute to what could be, in 2029, the greatest electoral reset in our modern history. This week's column. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Steve Reed told Parliament his dep't provided the figure of £100bn to buy back water. The DEFRA Under-Secretary and civil servants are on record saying the figure came from a report funded by water companies. So...who's telling the truth? Time to #ComeCleanSteve Sign our petition! vist.ly/3yyng

A citizens' assembly is recommending an advocate for nature at council meetings, equitable access to green spaces, and stronger protections for waterways. The Citizens' Jury met in February to answer the question “How can we make Oxford a city where people and nature thrive together?”

You can always rely on the Clarion for quality analysis like this. If you live in Oxfordshire and aren’t signed up to their weekly email newsletter, you’re missing out.

Incredibly proud to have played a small role in getting these two wonderful people elected in East Oxford. @greenpartyemma.bsky.social and @emilykerr36.bsky.social will now be part of the largest ever group of Greens on Oxfordshire County Council.

An illustration of how FPP goes from sandbag to springboard - Reform votes and seats in different councils: Oxfordshire: 18% vote, 2% seats Cambridgeshire: 23% vote, 16% seats Devon: 27% vote, 30% seats Leicestershire: 33% vote, 46% seats Derbyshire: 37% vote, 66% seats

Lots of very high profile UK biologists sign a letter saying that biological sex isn't binary or immutable and that the Supreme Court's ruling is scientifically wrong! We really need to hammer home how the anti-trans side is anti-science (you can add your name still if you are in a relevant field)

Your regular reminder 👇 🏥 81% want publicly owned NHS 🏫 78% want publicly owned schools 💧 73% want publicly owned water 🚂 70% want publicly owned rail ✉️ 70% want publicly owned mail 🚍 67% want publicly owned buses 💡 65% want publicly owned energy

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

Almost everyone agrees water privatisation has failed But the government tells us they can't afford nationalisation UNTRUE *Even if you compensate shareholders at full market value* new research from Greenwich university shows public ownership saves money 👇 👇👇 weownit.org.uk/news/governm...

Rachel Reeves is right that the world has changed - so why won’t she change her strategy to reflect it? Rigid adherence to arbitrary fiscal rules & refusing wealth taxes is a political choice that’s causing huge pain & harm, as well as laying out the welcome mat for the populists at Reform UK
