Very important. The media needs to raise the alarm if we are being dragged into this.

Farage crying that he wasn't allowed to access an island after turning up in a small boat without the necessary paperwork surely has to be peak hypocrisy, even for him.

It's a great operation the team are running for this campaign. The boots on the ground are what will win it. If you're a member and you have time this week, particularly for the get out the vote work on Wednesday and Thursday, please do try to join in!

If Gorton and Denton choose @greenparty.org.uk this Thursday, it will send ripples of hope to every corner of the country 💚 Facism isn't inevitable Another 🌎 is possible! 🙏🏽

Wet and tired but satisfied with today's work!

Derbyshire Dales Greens were up in Denton & Gorton today to help Hannah Spencer become our 5th MP. A fun and satisfying day, and a real privilege to be involved in such an important political moment.

As a fellow plumber I have even more reason to be excited by our pick! I'll be going over to knock some doors myself.

"You cannot have both a free market in media ownership and a free market in information and ideas" is just one of the insightful points in George's thread below.

We did it!

A gangster state at home, a rogue state abroad: and entirely because Congress and the Supreme Court have abdicated their proper constitutional roles.

Really enjoyed participating in the Queen Elizabeth Grammar School question time event this morning. Representatives from 5 parties faced the sixth form. It's always striking how thoughtful the questions are. Thanks so much to the school and the students.

Anything we can do, we can afford. Don't believe me or Zack, believe the greatest economist of the 20th century.

It's the same thing with Reform's manifesto.

We're in a really good position to win this byelection and Lian will be an excellent councillor. Dales people be ready to answer the call for help leafleting etc.

Well this is interesting, isn't it?

The news from the US this morning is encouraging and there are lessons for the left and centre left in this country. Money doesn’t always win. The billionaires may pour it out to their chosen politicians but the people can still stick two fingers up to them.

The UK needs a wealth tax. Multimillionaires and billionaires will scream and wail, but when it comes down to it, most of them will pay up. The ones determined not to pay their way to live in our country may go where they please.

Very disappointed in Derbyshire Dales MP John Whitby for his vote here. What Palestine Action has done is clearly not terrorism.

Another record year for the Green Party 👏 859 Councillors on 170 Councils in England & Wales Now join us to keep Greens growing and to take the fight to Reform join.greenparty.org.uk

No Green breakthrough in Dovedale & Ashbourne North on Thursday, but it was a good night for us overall. In Derbyshire, congratulations to Gez who held his seat & Rachel who gained one, both by big margins. Thank you everyone who helped, voted Green & those who gave serious thought to voting Green.

The Greens did well on Thursday, but like it or not, we all depend on Labour making some halfway sensible decisions for the foreseeable future if we are not to fall to the hard right. Trying to be diet Reform is clearly not working.

Derbyshire Dales Green Party, and the Green Group of District Councillors, give a warm welcome to Cllr Nick Whitehead. Disappointed with Labour performance, he finds his values match Green Party policies. www.derbyshiretimes.co.uk/news/people/...

I'm in this picture, and I like it

Solidarity with all trans, non-binary & intersex people facing the harsh and ill-considered guidance issued by the EHRC. It’s full of holes & has clearly been written without input from trans people. I will push for this to be withdrawn until thought-out guidance can be produced.

Entering the last week of the campaign now. I've not been very active on here, but I have been working hard delivering leaflets. According my phone app (accuracy is questionable!) I've racked up over 120,000 steps & around 80km while leafleting, and the team has done far more. Thanks everyone!

Thank you Natalie. Strictly, Frank's patch is over the border in North East Derbyshire, but Dales people please do join the effort if you are able.

🏳️‍⚧️ Trans liberation will free us all. GO were out yesterday to celebrate trans joy & human rights - not just in solidarity, but as a community that includes trans people. You’re not just welcome here. You belong here and you make this movement stronger. Let's stand together.

A bit of lightness to start my timeline

Just arrived here. I'm busy following interesting people right now (those starter packs are a great help!) Will be posting shortly.
