A Government of cowards. Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution. They can't get away with this.

Our country is in crisis. Bills are too high. People are being forced to live in mouldy, unaffordable homes. One in three kids is living in poverty. The budget is this government's chance to turn things around: it's time to cut bills and tax billionaires.

Do you run an #opensource #geospatial software project? Would your team like a small grant to push forward that next feature? Check out #GoFundGeo from @uk.osgeo.org and apply for funding if you meet the correct criteria: uk.osgeo.org/gofundgeo.html #gis #earthobservation #remotesensing #maps

@zackpolanski.bsky.social @greenparty.org.uk Excellent result for the ward building on the hope radiating around the green party at the moment - and the massive effort by local volunteers.

Are the Greens...on to something? These people seem quite worried.

My first time at the @uk.osgeo.org conference. It inspired me to highlight my research applying #Sentinel1 to #peatland with #qgis was published in the @mdpiopenaccess.bsky.social Remote Sensing journal lnkd.in/eaPpipQu With zero funding resources, it was possible because of #foss4g resources. #gis

Do you have an open source geo project that could make a difference in the UK? We’ve got £6,000 to share between £500–£1000 projects! Submit your idea by 30 Nov 2025 to [email protected] 💵🌍 #foss4guk #OpenSource #foss4g #gischat

Here's a quote from one of the previous awardees, North Road, on how GoFundGeo funding helped QGIS development:

🧭 Great blog post on DuckDB for data scientists! codecut.ai/deep-dive-in...

Keep an eye on @uk.osgeo.org for the full and official word on this but... #gofundgeo is back! Surplus funds support #FOSS #geospatial software projects that will have an impact in the UK. Details at: uk.osgeo.org/gofundgeo.html. What project(s) do you think should be funded?

Here's a map of UK fire activity in 2025. 2025 was a record year for both number of fires and burnt area in the UK, according to the satellite record. Data from EFFIS, based on MODIS and Sentinel observations. 🔥#ukwildfires #wildfires

“The idea that the Labour party are on the left is completely incoherent" Zack Polanski challenging the tired narrative of the mainstream media is a thing of beauty.

Victoria Derbyshire, "You want to spend a lot of public services and welfare, is the wealth tax a panacea? Zack Polanski, "I don't present it as a panacea. It's not close to a panacea, it's just the start of the things we need to do" "We need to bring Capital Gains Tax in line with Income Tax"

Never before have I felt so let down by a Labour government as with this one. I cancelled my membership earlier this year. Zack Polanski gives me hope. In the space of 8 weeks, I've joined the Green Party, and been encouraged to stand as a councillor for my local ward! And I couldn't be happier 😍

Katapult Magazine is using a simple cartographic trick to make is easier for other nations to understand what the loss of land Ukraine had to suffer so far would mean for them. Lesson: Always benchmark your data, people!

💚 Amazing!!! 😲 There is so much potential in this moment... Thank you to everyone who has been part of this so far. Let's keep it going. Let's make hope normal again. Join us: join.greenparty.org.uk

A much needed walk in the woods today.

Eyes on the weekend... #FlyDay's here! 📷 @mart-the-gooner.bsky.social

Wow the Greens got permission from the late, great poet Benjamin Zephaniah’s family for Zack Polanski to perform ‘British’ What an honour

Never thought I’d join a political party, but I will be paying to join the Greens @zackpolanski.bsky.social is fantastic

@sanders.senate.gov says it like it is: youtu.be/PjaxJ01WjNc?... If we come together we can make a fairer society - whether that's in the US, or the UK or wherever! @zackpolanski.bsky.social is saying the same on our behalf in the UK.

Finally an episode worth watching - fantastic job @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Former Head of Comms for the IEA, Annabel Denham, says the super rich will leave if we have a wealth tax. Yes, the very same IEA that brought us Liz Truss’ disastrous mini budget. 🤦🏽‍♂️ Green Party leader Zack Polanski explains that their taxable assets can’t leave. #bbcqt

Breaking the Link is happening, in Spain. 75% reduction in times when gas sets the price resulting in power prices 30% lower than the EU average. While Britain has prices more like 30% higher than the EU average. The Link is the cause. What are we waiting for, Ed, Keir, Rachel....? buff.ly/aOGXavM

#FOSS4GUK 2025 is a wrap. It was an amazing experience & outstanding success. Our speakers did so well to represent the spirit of OSGeo& #FOSS4G. Our greatest achievement was to welcome so many first time delegates and presenters to carry the torch and define us as a community diverse and united ♥️🫂

🇳🇴 Great news from Norway! 👏 Green party @mdg.no got over the 4% threshold for the first time. This Green success secures a left-wing government. That means that despite gains by the far right, they will not be in power.
