New York just elected @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, who offers real hope, over billionaire funded opponents. In May, Sussex & Brighton will face a similar choice between real hope and real change with a @greenparty.org.uk mayor or a big money backed Reform mayor with no real plan for the future.

Brilliant to join an action day in Hastings on Sunday! Speaking to locals about their concerns and what they want to see from the new Mayor of Sussex and Brighton. Meeting so many Greens is always brilliant. Thank you to all who came along, hope to see you again soon! 📸: Alice Denny

When public service matters more than party politics, and how the Home Office is letting us down... this is a clip from my Ashdown Radio interview this morning.

It has been astonishing to experience first hand how badly the Home Office mismanages asylum seeker accommodation. Wealden District Council has written to the Minister to make clear our dissatisfaction. (1/2)

Here's a clip from when I spoke to the Northern Rose at Green Party Conference about how I got involved in politics and how the Greens aim to address inequality.

3 things Starmer could do instead of camps in old barracks that would actually WORK👇 1. Create safe, regulated routes to apply for asylum in the UK 2. Let asylum seekers WORK & support themselves 3. Fast track status for people from obviously unsafe countries metro.co.uk/2025/10/29/k...

@sianberry.bsky.social is doing amazing work in Parliament to ensure our new mayors have a duty to measure and reduce socio-economic inequality, alongside protecting our nature and climate. I am so grateful to have her support in my campaign to be the first Mayor of Sussex and Brighton. 💚

Here's a letter from James Partridge and me in response to Nus Ghani's deeply unhelpful and false accusations. The Home Office does not involve local councils in decision making. We need honest community leadership, not antagonistic and politically motivated open letters.

Sign up to join me in Hastings for doorknocking and leafleting! We have an exciting opportunity to support Paula Warne for East Sussex County Council and to spread the work about our mayoral campaign! 💚 Sign up with the link in the thread.

In today's Guardian I spoke about the need for the Home Office to be broken up to ensure migrants are dealt with by a department designed to make the system work rather than simply projecting a hardline stance to the public.

Horrific. The far right say they want to 'protect our women' as an excuse for their thinly-veiled racism. But sexual violence against women & girls isn't caused by an attacker's race. It's dangerous men asserting power over women in the most damaging way. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We are over 70% of the way to our first crowdfunder target. Please can you help us get over the line? Every fiver counts... 🔥 Thank you so much! 💚 Link in thread.

The Green Party will always stand with the Palestinian people. Here's another clip from my speech in Eastbourne this weekend. 💚

📈 It feels like yesterday I was impatient for us to break the 70k ceiling 🤯 We've almost doubled our members since then 💚 Huge kudos to @zackpolanski.bsky.social @rachelmillward.bsky.social @mothinali.bsky.social for inspiring so many people 🌱 There's room for so many more: join.greenparty.org.uk

When I joined @scottishgreens.org in 2001, there were around 6,000 Green members across the UK. About the same number as has joined today - as reported by @zackpolanski.bsky.social just now. 130k @greenparty.org.uk of England & Wales members. 138k Greens UK-wide. Astonishing.

I spoke at the March for Gaza in Eastbourne earlier this weekend: Shame on the US and this Labour Government. They could've called for peace and stopped arming this genocide at any time. Reparations now. 🇵🇸 @pscupdates.bsky.social

After speaking at a March for Gaza in Eastbourne today, a group of young people told me the Green Party and its new leadership team gave them hope in politics for the first time in their lives. We now have over 20,000 Young Greens, now is the perfect time for young people to join us. 💚

I'm so grateful for being a part of our diverse, representative leadership team at @greenparty.org.uk. We're gaining hundreds of members each day and surging in the polls. 💚

A new poll has the Greens just two points behind the Tories and Labour...

Greens are doing amazing things on a local level whilst Reform causes chaos. I'll make sure people find out about all the work our local Greens are doing across the country. Thanks to @owenjones.bsky.social for the interview! 💚

Conference was SUCH a blast - just buzzing with new members, new energy, so much hope. Happy smiling faces all round!!! Thank you all. You really made me feel welcomed into my new role and I’m just so honoured to be in service.

"Our Young Greens, sparkling with brilliance and bravery, showed that another way was possible." - @rachelmillward.bsky.social

My two stand-out highlights of Green Party conference were @rachelmillward.bsky.social and @mothinali.bsky.social's Deputy Leaders' speeches. Grounded, emotional, and inspiring. Well worth watching in full: www.youtube.com/live/Nw1waIc... #GPC25

At @greenparty.org.uk conference deputy leader @rachelmillward.bsky.social announces that #GreenParty now has more members than #Libdems @britainelects.com @electionmaps.uk @edconway.bsky.social

After bringing many #GreenParty delegates to tears, @mothinali.bsky.social brings @zackpolanski.bsky.social @rachelmillward.bsky.social & #HarrietLamb to stage at #Conference to create a moment of sheer joy and happiness. #HopeNotDivision

Really good speeches from the Deputy Leaders @rachelmillward.bsky.social and @mothinali.bsky.social, too. I like that they each have such different styles. Lots of ground covered here. Very hopeful. www.youtube.com/live/Nw1waIc...

"The system that has caused such destruction of nature is the same system that rips us apart from each other." - @rachelmillward.bsky.social
