Labour have bottled it, they’ve cancelled the elections. Undemocratic and incompetent - aka Labour’s new normal. Greens are on the rise. Join us, help us take the first Mayor of Sussex and Brighton! Let’s build our future of hope together.

3/3 Mayors have serious powers to bring change. And Labour know they'd not be winning any of it. But the Greens are rising. We’ve doubled membership in 2 months. We’re beating Labour in some polls. Thanks for the extra time, Labour. We’re coming. Join us.

2/3 they are completely failing to solve the real problems of local government. Inequality rises, the housing crisis continues, our bills keep rising - the cost of living is staggering. But Labour just pour resource into chaos, rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic like real lives don't matter

In today's Budget, the Chancellor spoke about building the economy “brick by brick” but left out the very foundation that underpins it all: nature. The same Government that promised to restore our natural world appears instead to have wiped it from their agenda.

Important article. For the Israeli govt the erasure of ecosystems & people’s means of survival seems to be a key strategic aim. It appears to be seeking what some have called “holocide”: the complete destruction of every aspect of life in Gaza 😢

Our leadership candidates are united on our bold, radical policies. So the choice is about a communication style targeting progressive activists or a broader appeal beyond that base. Under FPTP it’s the latter that wins Green seats.

Adrian Ramsay superb on Today on the absolute necessity for the Green Party to make a genuinely broad appeal. Astutely points out that the explicit ‘99% vs 1%’ appeal made by Polanski does not resonate even with most Left voters, let alone with most voters who don’t self-identify as ‘Left’.

This month we've seen more heatwaves. Temperatures will keep rising unless we stop burning oil and gas. The government can't claim to care about our future while backing new fossil fuel projects. That is why @UKLabour must stop new oil & gas extraction, starting with Rosebank.

Former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert has said Israel's plan for a ‘humanitarian city’ in Rafah would create a “concentration camp” if it goes ahead. The already devastated Palestinian population cannot be subject to yet more unfathomable cruelty at the hands of Netanyahu.
