Everything is too expensive and nothing works. Privatisation has been a resounding failure…but we can fix it. Let’s take rail, mail, water and energy back into public ownership. Let’s pull the country out of this corporate greed crisis for good!

All four Green MPs voted against this cruel mistake of a Bill. To those who are scared and worried about what this result means, we will continue to vote against it, and stand against any proposals that seek to save money by impoverishing those already struggling to get by. Solidarity always 💚

Look how far off target we are in London for delivering accessible homes. Terrible. M4(2) = accessible & adaptable M4(3) = wheelchair user homes I'm chairing Housing Committee today - we will hear from disabled people's organisations then put questions to GLA about what can be done to improve.

It's an honour to hold elected office for the last 4 years & to continue this with our 4 new MPs for the last 10 months. I'm ambitious about taking on a failing Labour Party and sending many more Green MPs to Parliament. Join our campaign at

A disingenuous ploy by Barnet Labour Party to gain disabled people’s votes in a local election, in the midst of a National attack on
#disabledpeople
by cutting

and

. It must be called out for what it is!

Nigel Farage & ReformUK don’t need to spend a penny on election materials because the BBC & MSM provide their propaganda for free.

The question remains - why is this government stripping vital support away from millions of people when a 2% wealth tax on multi-millionaires and billionaires could raise many, many times more?
