“It’s fantastic that so many people in Cardiff voted Green and chose hope over hate in this election.” Paul Rock after being elected to the Senedd in Caerdydd Ffynnon Taf.

“We’ve broken through, and now people across Wales can see that hopeful, bold politics can win.” Wales Green Party leader Anthony Slaughter after becoming the first ever Green elected to the Senedd in Caerdydd Penarth.

“It’s election day. In Wales, the system is proportional representation. That means every Green vote results in Green Senedd members pushing for replacing council tax and introducing a £1 bus fare and rent controls.” Zack Polanski urges voters to make their vote count and back Green on polling day.

Just met a group of friends who just voted in a Senedd election for the first time! Voting to make hope normal again! 💚💚💚

We asked Reform a very simple question three times. But they refused to answer.

He's not your representative. He represents the oligarchs. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Update: took less than a day to be boiled away... www.cityam.com/treasury-rul...

Thing is, I don’t even believe Labour will do this. It is clearly a desperate move ahead of a local election round where their canvassers are hearing time and again about Green ideas like rent controls. Can absolutely predict this idea will evaporate in the first post-election cabinet meeting.

If you ever doubt the impact that the @greenparty.org.uk can have on British politics, remember this week - the week that, after years of Labour ministers telling me their party does not support rent controls, the Rachel Reeves is now considering rent controls. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I’ve been hearing so much anger and disappointment from frontline workers about the BBC investigation into fraudulent asylum claims. One of the most damning responses has come from one of the experts they interviewed, solicitor Ana Gonzalez. It’s really worth reading her response in full:

Green-led @bristolcouncil.bsky.social received a glowing peer review from @local.gov.uk this month. It specifically noted how moving to a committee system has strengthened democratic engagement and transparency. But the Labour govt wants to stop all of that… news.bristol.gov.uk/press-releas...

Loads of Green party posters up in Lewisham wards particularly Crofton Park, Ladywell, brockley. Seen a few Labour and 1 libdem. Most election activity for many years @andimohr.bsky.social

It's going to be even worse the next time they appoint Peter Mandelson

We need to win big on May 7. Thousands of Green candidates are standing across England and Wales. This is a real chance to change politics - to give communities a stronger voice and challenge parties backed by big money. Support the campaign 👉 crowdfunder.co.uk/p/we-deserve...

WOW. Our @younggreens.bsky.social now have 50,000 members - they are the biggest political youth movement in the UK. And we're growing. Every single day I am meeting more young greens out on the streets campaigning. This is how we make change happen. Join us: join.greenparty.org.uk

Fantastic work by @greenparty.org.uk activists across the country In addition to our full slate of 96/96 in Wales for the Senedd elections, we are standing a new record high % of local election candidates in England: 89% 📈 Huge thank you to everybody standing, election agents and officers 💚

zack polanski most vindicated man in british politics

The Green Party now has over 225,000+ members. Just to note; In December 2025, the Labour Party recorded that it had less than 250,000 members. It's likely, based on the analysis graph (included) that the Green Party now have more members than the Labour Party have.

The Greens say they have candidates standing in *89%* of the 5,000-ish local council seats up for grabs in England on 7 May, compared to their previous record of 72%, set last year. This is a big step-change in ambition.

A huge betrayal. Won't lower bills. Won't give us more energy security. Won't insulate from price shocks. And sends a clear message to the world that we are backing new oil and gas drilling. www.lbc.co.uk/article/ed-m...

Climate has almost disappeared from our conversation. But it remains the most pressing challenge of our times. Last week the WMO said the planet is “more out of balance than at any time in observed history.” Energy security and climate security are not competing priorities.

Greater Manchester Police has found "no evidence of any intent to influence or refrain any person from voting" in the Gorton and Denton by-election, after Reform made a complaint over alleged "family voting" The investigation looked at potential offences under the Representation of the People Act

A National security assessment, partially released in January, warns that “Every critical ecosystem is on a pathway to collapse”. The climate and nature emergencies are the most pressing issues of our time. So why isn't this top of the government's agenda?

“Trump is a bully and a blackmailer, and he has made absolutely no plan for what an exit strategy looks like. When he asks for our help we should say: Donald, ‘you broke it, you fix it.’” Caroline Lucas speaking on the Iran war on #BBCQT.

Something extraordinary – yet predictable – has happened over recent days on Facebook. Fake accounts that usually post anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim content generated using AI to fuel division and hate in UK are now pushing out AI-gen content asking: "Should the UK produce its own fuel again?"

Now's a great time: join.greenparty.org.uk

Zack Polanski will use a major speech on his economic policy to describe the UK as a country where successive governments have turned it from a manufacturing economy to one where the basics of life have been privatised and are rented back at crushing cost. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

We live in Rip Off Britain. We have to lower people's bills and tax wealth fairly. This morning I'll be starting to lay out our vision of how to do this. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The only way Reform UK could win a general election is through our first-past-the-post system. If we had proportional representation, the threat would evaporate. We don't have PR because Starmer has blocked it. This allows him to say: vote Labour or you get Farage. Because it's all he has left.

Unbelievable… The most casual imperialism in modern memory.
