Renting in Britain is broken. While the Labour government tears itself apart I have written to Steve Reed, alongside our two new Green Mayors @zoegarbett.bsky.social & @liamshrivastava.bsky.social , to ask him to listen to those who voted for change last week and to introduce rent controls now.

We don't need to use petroleum-based plastic anymore. "The [bamboo plastic] outperforms most commercial plastics and bioplastics in mechanical and thermo-mechanical metrics while maintaining full biodegradability in soil within 50 days and closed-loop recyclability with 90% retained strength."

Thread & comments on Cambridge’s decades-long public transport issues…which (IMHO) reflect broken governance structures.

Three things not mentioned by Starmer, which show he doesn't understand what's making people angry and what needs fixing. 1. Inequality, and the tax burden falling on working people. 2. Low wages stagnating further and further behind prices and rents. 3. The climate & nature recovery. All linked.

In the wake of excellent results for the #GreenParty of England and Wales, it's worth considering how far the Party's general appeal extends. Read my new piece for @bylinetimes.bsky.social where I give my take. www.bylinesupplement.com/p/is-there-a...

If you now have a Reform Councillor Find out how good a job they'll be doing Be polite, and only notify them of a genuine problem I'm sure there's a backlog of a host of local issues that need addressing ... ps do remember that stopping the boats is not within their power! meme via Angel Stroyan

Looking for a summary of the brilliant @greenparty.org.uk election results? I've got that covered nataliebennett.org/2026/05/10/g...

I’ve never been a member of a political party before and never thought I’d be inspired enough to become one. Today I joined the Green Party.

"...the problem is not that we talk about #climate too much. It is that we often talk about it in ways that feel distant, abstract or disconnected from people’s lives." A new joint article with Liz Gadd and Zoe Sprigings 👇 www.linkedin.com/pulse/move-f...

No one expected Keir Starmer to solve our pressing problems overnight. But what we did expect – and had every right to expect – was that he would lay out a clear vision and roadmap for doing so. Instead, we’ve had drift, appeasement and a startling absence of ideas, values and ambition. 🧵1/6

This deserves to be circulated. A former Red Cross staff member got in touch. She testifies about @zackpolanski.bsky.social's role. For transparency: her name is Brea Thibodeau. The whole thing is a desperate smear.

Dairy industry = Death industry Egg industry = Death industry There’s no such thing as ‘vegetarian for the animals’ If you truly care about animals there is only one choice: #GoVegan

Appreciate an MP speaking out on the medias treatment of Jewish politicians they dislike. Thank you for the solidarity, Sarah.

People are looking for a change in this election, but I know they want to vote for parties who will be focused on making a real difference locally. On 7th May, for change and for a strong track record of local action, Vote Green.

Yes. Stop Farage. Stop Reform. Stop the corruption. Stop the racism. Stop the misogyny. Stop the hatred. Stop the cruelty. Stop the incompetence. Stop the division. Stop the threats. Stop the fascism. Stop the failure. Just, ffs, stop him.

This says it all, #Cambridge #VoteGreen

Our breakdown of Wes Streeting’s donors has been doing the rounds online for the last year. Now we’ve updated it – with another £55,000 from OPD Group.

Gary says: Vote Green! 💚🙌🏽

Did you know the contents of blue bins is shipped from, Cambridge and surrounding district to Northern Ireland? Just for sorting! I asked the Environment Committee if the updated waste management strategy will change this. It won't! #GetGreensElected www.cambridgeindependent.co.uk/news/calls-g...

"We don’t fully know what is driving the rising demand for #mentalhealth services" Well Wes, suggest you look to poverty and inequality, the cost-of-living crisis, rigid discipline in schools forced to become #ExamFactories, #ClimateEmergency... www.independent.co.uk/voices/nhs-m...

Not only is Reform’s new policy of putting migrant detention centres in any constituency that votes Green a piece of disgusting imported Trumpism, the centres meet the definition of concentration camps.

Starmerism - the ugly & deceitful project of Mandleson & McSweeny. Now Starmer has lost his puppet masters we can see he's just not up to the job. Get rid! #VoteGreen

A Message From Jewish @lambethgreenparty.bsky.social Candidates 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

The government knows our marches for Palestine are made up of all faiths and none. The are suppressing our hard-fought right to protest for one reason: to hide their complicity in genocide. Israel’s occupation must end. Until then, our movement for peace isn’t going anywhere.

Why does the world continue to fund a genocide? Anybody providing military or monetary assistance to Israel is complicit... Simple as that!!!

Handing out Green Party Election news at Cambridge Central Mosque on Friday with @elliottonguk.bsky.social We got such a great reception from worshippers who are keen to know more about the Greens. #VoteGreen #Cambridge

I have raised the alarm about US tech in our public services but it took 12 months of FOI work to expose this litany of secret meetings. Disgraceful. We must reform lobbying so that advisors like this, and every MP, have to declare all meetings and influences. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Recently, I’ve been campaigning in Romsey and Coleridge for two of our fantastic candidates, Jacqui and Sarah 💚 Yesterday, I was outside Cambridge Central Mosque to let people know about the great work that they’re doing!

Starmer here is clearly conflating opposing genocide with mental illness That is the only way you can link the Golders Green stabbing with pro-Palestine marches The man is so clearly controlled by Israel it actually makes me terrified to live in the UK www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Hannah Spencer, "Labour elected under a banner of change.. Why should we be grateful for crumbs when Labour promised a full loaf" Then she criticising Parliament's drinking culture, "And can any of us imagine going to work after a few drinks and making big decisions about everyone else"

I am quite certain @zackpolanski.bsky.social is a better guardian of my Jewish values than Keir Starmer who said it was appropriate to cut off water from a people subject to genocide.

A whooping cough outbreak in an elementary school down the road. Meanwhile I finally got around to reading Candle In the Dark and only a few pages in, you get to its eerily prescient passage. Sigh.

More u-turns, prevarication and caving into developers from Labour. The Greens are clear. No more leaseholds. Bring in rent controls. Vote Green on 7th May. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Last minute reminder! Billionaires need our money. Make them feel the pain of a day without our contribution to their coffers. Support workers’s rights, immigrants’s rights and economic justice! ❌No Work ❌No School ❌No Shopping #MayDayStrong #GeneralStrike #Solitarity

Today the new Renters’ Rights Act comes into force. This is a big step forward. But without rent controls a huge number of private renters will continue to be priced out of their homes by spiralling rents. I will never stop fighting for secure and affordable housing for all 🧵...

actually voted green for the first time (postal)

The Greens will put workers in control. www.ft.com/content/431a...

Nigel Farage has been accused by multiple people he grew up with of extreme antisemitic comments and behaviour. Yet he's allowed to present himself as a champion of Jewish people. Meanwhile, our only Jewish leader, Zack Polanski, is smeared - because he opposes genocide.
