Oh GB News. Have a day off and enjoy a mince pie. How dare I talk positively about migration & refugee rights at this time of year that should be about *checks notes* good tidings and warm wishes. Tune in at 3pm to watch and judge for yourself. Merry Christmas everyone!

Exeter Green group leader @dianafmoore.bsky.social has written to the City Council's leader calling on him to reject scrapping elections and honouring his previous commitment that they will go ahead. Full story ⬇️

The Labour govt are inviting Councils to scrap local elections in May 2026. We're calling for a clear response from the Labour leader of @exetercouncil.bsky.social that elections will take place as planned in Exeter.

Leafleting is one of the best ways for new members (which now number hundreds in Exeter!) to get involved in supporting our campaign to get more Green councillors elected in May 2026. As Young Green member Angus Crocker explains.

“Dutch people cycle an average of 2.6km each per day. If this pattern was replicated worldwide, annual carbon emissions would drop by 686 million tonnes. This mammoth figure exceeds the entire carbon footprint of most countries, including the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Australia.” @euronews.com

Jack Reed, our candidate in St Thomas Exeter is out and about talking to residents. #BackJack in May 2026 to be your Green councillor for the ward.

It's 10 years since the Paris climate agreement. Before Paris, the world was heading for 4 degrees of warming; it’s now headed for 2.5 degrees. We must continue this progress to limit heating and reduce its impacts. Every fraction of a degree matters for the future of humanity.

I'm just over 100 days as the leader of the Green Party. We've had several polls where we're in second place above Labour. And today we found out we are closing in on overtaking Labours membership. Then we're coming for Reform. Join.greenparty.org.uk

📚 Devon County Council is seeking your views on increasing the use of volunteers to manage the county's libraries. 💚 We say libraries are important community spaces, and this must not mean cuts to services.

🎄 At last night’s @bradfordcouncil.bsky.social meeting, #Bradford Conservatives brought forward a proposal to bring #Christmas Cheer ... by cutting Council Tax Support for the most vulnerable in our district ... 🗣️ I was lost for words. Luckily I had a poem prepared ... #WealthTaxNow

💚The Green Party has passed 180,000 members! 🥳Nearly 1000 of those are in Exeter 🔗It's a great time to join us and help build our movement for real hope and real change.

Today marks 25 years of offshore wind power: an initiative that reduced the UK’s spending on imported fuels by up to £30bn. Without wind power the country would’ve imported & burned over 20 million tonnes of gas over the last 25 years. Wind works 🌬️ For the climate and the economy.

I see the PM is being very rattled and very untruthful about the Greens again in the papers. He couldn’t say this stuff in Parliament because he would be lying to the House - both about what our popular, evidence-based policies are, and about him believing this guff. Trumpian

Which is your favourite answer in this Q&A with @zackpolanski.bsky.social We'll go with: Q: What would you like to leave your children? A: I’ve got no kids, but I’d like us to leave a planet for everyone’s children. 💚

🛍️ Today is #SmallBusinessSaturday Exeter Greens want to see small local businesses, social enterprises and charities thrive. They are the lifeblood of our local communities and local high streets. Show your support. #ShopLocal in Exeter this Christmas 🎅🎁

The Express is furious about this because the moment you show those who repeat anti-immigration rhetoric the real human stories their narrative collapses. The “immigrants” are people. Our friends, colleagues and family. And it’s this nation of neighbours that is what makes Britain great.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social in the Guardian responding to the £9m donation from a crypto investor to Reform UK.

Crypto investor Christopher Harborne, who has just donated £9 million to Reform, is also an aviation fuel entrepreneur. In other news Reform, which has pledged to scrap all Net Zero plans, just declared a £36,000 donation from Heathrow bylinetimes.com/2025/12/04/c...

50 seats... Time to grow the Green Party even more. Let's go. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Our St Thomas candidate, Jack Reed, has been supporting local residents objecting to the Barley Lane development. 🥳 He has some good news to share after last night's Planning Committee meeting!

It's 'Giving Tuesday' - a great time to donate to a good and hopeful cause...

...And to round off an amazing weekend of campaigning in Exeter, here is our team out getting a very positive reception on the doorstep in Pennsylvania ward.

The growth in members, volunteers, support and above all, enthusiasm, is just awesome. We're making hope (and excitement) normal again. And it's a lot of fun too!

Moving towards our stretch target of £200,000! A huge thank you to everyone who's donated - we're gonna challenge Labour and take the fight to Reform! www.thecanary.co/trending/202...

📊Our local membership has almost trebled in the last two months, approaching 1000! 💚So many people keen to help us win more councillors in Exeter. 💥Out in force today door-knocking and leafleting in St David's, St Thomas, Duryard & St James and Alphington.

Never, ever trust the Labour party on the climate. Corporate profits will always come first to them 🔥🌍

In 24 hours this has now raised £150,000. Thank you to the thousands of people who have donated. Let's make small donations normal again! www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/hopeishere

Petition: Call a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy Nearly at 70k, sign and share! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population. How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich? They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

Raawiyah Rifath, co-coordinator of Exeter Green Party addresses the Exeter for Everyone rally. "We must call out hate, call out racism and call out fascism."

A statement from Exeter Green Party as a further march by the far-right is planned this weekend, along with a counter rally beginning at 11am in Bedford Square, Exeter city centre.

Get ready for lots more of this. Right across England & Wales! 🎉 Join.greenparty.org.uk

✍️ Green councillors in Exeter have written to @steveracemp.bsky.social calling on him to ask Keir Starmer to reject Rosebank. ❌️ This would do nothing to lower bills or boost energy security. 💚 We need instead to invest in the green energy sector and create the high quality jobs of the future.

Yes. Next question. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/as-no1...

When you adopt the policies you once opposed, you risk becoming like the very forces you once criticised. Labour’s temporary asylum plan echoes the harsh approaches they used to stand against. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Here’s something that’s really important for everyone to understand. If we design our cities just for cars, they fail everyone, including drivers. If we design our cities with many great CHOICES in how to get around, they work better for everyone, including drivers. Spread the word.

🥀Yet again, Labour try to out Reform Reform. 💚The Green Party has and always will have a compassionate and welcoming approach to refugees and asylum seekers. Join us ➡️ join.greenparty.org.uk

The Green and Independent Group of councillors have welcomed plans by Devon County Council to remove flags from public property when they have been put up illegally. Flags should create a sense of community, not division.

Over the next six months Stagecoach will take delivery of 51 new electric buses in Exeter and North Devon. Welcome news for passengers and the environment. But Stagecoach must use this as a moment to turn around their shoddy service in Exeter.

⚠️Green councillors have accused the Labour-run Exeter City Council of ☹️Running a misleading & poor consultation process ☹️A failure to justify why the disposal of this land for an 'energy hub' is necessary. ☹️The potential environmental damage from laying pipes for the industrial plant.

Zack for PM, anyone? join.greenparty.org.uk

"If the Chancellor is serious about plugging the gap in our finances, she must start by tackling our growing inequality, not deepening it." Read my full op-ed for LBC here: www.lbc.co.uk/article/labo...

"I’m pleased Keir Starmer is going to COP — but Rosebank’s emissions are equivalent to 28 of the lowest-income countries combined, and this government still won’t rule it out.” Zack Polanski calls for real leadership from the government ahead of #COP30.

Tesla have approved a $1 trillion pay package for Elon Musk. That's 20 billion times more than a nurse in the UK earns. Don't let anyone tell you immigrants or disabled people are the problem. It's the richest 1% hoarding all the wealth. Time to tax the super-rich properly.

Just as COP30 climate talks begin in Brazil Logan Air promote hugely polluting short-haul flights from Exeter to cities easily reached by train. Greens say: ❌️Airport expansion ✔️Proper taxes on aviation fuel ✔️Subsidies for rail ✔️Frequent flyer levy taxing 15% of fliers who take 70% of all flights

The government spends £2.7 BILLION a year on TAX BREAKS for oil and gas companies Those companies pay billions to their shareholders And then lay off their workers Think that's unfair? Tell Rachel Reeves to stop propping up oil and gas companies and back workers instead…
