The UK's depleted armed forces readiness puts into stark focus the ludicrous choice to spend £128bn on maintaining a nuclear capability that we'd never realistically be able to use as opposed to conventional forces we may one day need news.sky.com/share/13517152

My fellow Green councillor Fiona has been working hard for residents in Kidlington for 4 years and is up for re-election on May 7th. A donation to her campaign fund would be really appreciated. We need more councillors like Fiona in Cherwell! Please share www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/qr/vnG9deAl

Nigel 'man of the people' Farage wants to impose a healthcare system which - gives working people little or no care, so they die young - gives well-off people expensive bankrupting healthcare - gives gated mansion, private jet, luxury yacht owning millionaires the best treatment in the world

You can see why they chose right now to launch the mission to the moon. It's a really big full moon at the moment so a much bigger target than usual.

Thinking of voting Reform? If you value your hard-earned rights, you should think again.

...and now we go live to the US-Iran negotiations youtu.be/_JmA2ClUvUY?...

This is what the UK should be doing. Not letting them use our airbases to prosecute their illegal wars.

Israel is preparing to implement laws concerning a racially biased death penalty - the EU now has no justification for failing to suspend the EU-Israel association agreement.

An illegal war waged by two countries the UK arms & supports B52s launched from British soil. Israeli jets built with British parts A UK economy still hooked on fossil fuels. We must end support for the war, cut fossil fuel addiction & support families facing this price shock.

Caroline telling it like it is

Of course Reform push the old "benefits scroungers" trope. Sure, there are people who get benefits who don't deserve them, but for every one of those denied by draconian systems to limit access to support, there will be hundreds who need who will be also denied including the sick, infirm and elderly

If we ever needed a definition of a crazed war criminal it's surely never been as clear as this. Any head of state who openly admits he wants to bomb somewhere "for fun" should have an international arrest warrant issued for them immediately.

You can't trust Nigel. You can't trust Reform.

Happy International Women's Day to women everywhere

The Western media is bending over BACKWARDS as a propaganda machine for this war.

Now, more than ever before, we all need to stand together

So this is Trump's casus belli. An ally was planning to attack another country and that justifies the US joining in in case they get some blowback. By that logic anyone who's ever dealt with the US should expect US military support for any random attack they have in mind anywhere.

So Starmer has allowed the UK to be dragged into Trump's distraction war. The backbone of a jellyfish. www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

Glad we cleared this up. A full explanation of how the 'sectarian voting' was organised in Gorton and Denton.

Epic and inspired, as always!

This what hope looks like! We all need to do a little dance today as the light blue forces of darkness and hatred have been defeated by the bright Green movers of togetherness and peace. Good times!

Best early morning wake up call ever! And a big wake up call to all the other parties. The Greens are here and coming to a ballot box near you soon!

Absolutely smashed it! Well done Hannah! Well done Manchester! Well done us! A victory for hope over hate and hopefully a positive investment in the democratic future of the whole country.

Labour have really shown their true colours during the Gorton and Denton election. The same moral bankruptcy, lies and self-interest we saw from years of Tory rule. The same reactionary entrenched belief that no ne else should dare to challenge their right to rule.

A brilliant (and sunny!) strategy day for our County Green Group. I'm really proud and lucky to have such thoughtful, dedicated funny and all round amazing colleagues. We have the best bring and share lunches as well 😉

On the eve of the Gorton & Denton by-election the Labour Party have invented a fake tactical voting organisation to put on their leaflets. Lying to voters is all they have left. All the (real) tactical voting organisations agree: only a Green vote can stop Reform on Thursday.

This is massive, and disgraceful. No organisation called “Tactical Choice” appears to exist.

Mood music for Gorton and Denton Labour - Won’t Get Fooled Again Reform - I Predict A Riot Greens - Good Vibrations Vote for hope over hate. Vote Green! Vote for Hannah Spencer!

Today is the day. Hope vs hate. Green vs Reform. Vote Green in Gorton & Denton.

Liebour lives up to their name. The desperation is palpable. Even with their massive majority, they would rather split the vote and risk letting Reform in than concede one seat to the Greens. This is not fit behaviour for a party of government.

Labour really are despicable now. So desperate they are literally making shit up. How can you trust a party like this?

It's a straight choice in Manchester on Thursday between a remote self-promoting, self-interested puppet of far right vested interests and wealthy backers and a local woman who's lived there all her life working as a plumber representing a party that has never taken a penny from billionaire backers

Very pleased to see the Green/Lib Dem budget pass at Cherwell District Council on Monday evening. A positive outcome for our residents going into the coming year including ongoing glass recycling at kerbside and the conversion of our HGV fleet to biofuel reducing our fleet emissions by up to 85%

I'm a signatory to this letter to Steve Reed. We need the government to step up and support a standard for zero carbon homes. Rather than pandering yet again to the developer lobby, Labour should be ensuring future homes are climate friendly as well as cheaper and more efficient to run.

Let's tackle ripoff Britain. Let's properly fund the NHS. Let's make taxation fair and put the load on to those with the broadest shoulders. Let's get Greens elected to make hope normal again. #votegreen2026

Heads up for anyone voting on Thursday

Who are the real drains on our economy? And who are the major contributors? Those who come here as refugees often represent our values and aspirations and benefit our communities far more than the billionaires who become tax haven refugees in other countries. I know which I'd prefer to support.
