#Pride in Brighton is always a lovely and peaceful event but the thing I love the best is the car free roads, you can still cycle and it's wonderful and shows what our city could look like without the permanent congestion.

All four Green MPs voted against this cruel mistake of a Bill. To those who are scared and worried about what this result means, we will continue to vote against it, and stand against any proposals that seek to save money by impoverishing those already struggling to get by. Solidarity always 💚

Labour are making a political choice to push 400,000 people into poverty - or worse. These cuts will kill - and now our Labour council are refusing to let the very people affected speak at today's emergency council meeting. Join us outside Hove Town Hall at 3pm to say no.

Another lovely morning delivering for Just Traid, around the historic and beautiful streets of Lewes. Cargo bikes can replace at least 70% of urban van trips, according to me.

"Did you know there are still 309,000 Labour Party members! ? Can I ask everyone to cancel your direct debits please, remind friends and family too. We need to stop funding these liars, warmongers and austerity makers." via Piara Miah labour.org.uk/membership-r...

On the button!

Bike racks nearly full at local supermarket. And that’s with zero bike lanes. The people don’t want to drive. @edinburghcouncil.bsky.social @stephenjenkinson.bsky.social imagine the modal shift you could achieve with protected active travel lanes?

Notice how uncomfortable Reform get when you ask them who their donors our. Follow. The. Money. For a party with only two vested interests (1) People & (2) the planet: join.greenparty.org.uk

I had a right old rant about Tony Blair's ignorant, self-interested statement on The Jeremy Vine Show today. I mentioned that he has worked as a lobbyist for PetroSaudi, earning Tony Blair Associates £41,000/month, plus 2% of any deal he brokered. Starts 9 minutes in: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

I have never seen a situation so dismal that Tony Blair couldn't make it worse.

#KidicalMass in Brighton & Hove today set new records - hundreds of children and adults came along, to call on the council to make everyday cycling easier across the city. @canseengland.bsky.social @bricycles.org.uk @cyclinguk.bsky.social @sustrans.bsky.social

A beautiful day to take a Bill for a ban on biodiversity-destroying pesticide use in urban areas into Parliament! 🌱🐝#GoPesticideFree

As I watch Starmer tear up Labour's prospects by attacking people in poverty, abusing those who care about the living world and appeasing the ultra-rich, I feel the same sense of dislocation as I did before the Iraq War. Anyone can see the disaster coming, except, apparently, the government.

Behold! My favorite herald of spring. A healthy male and female @georgemonbiot.bsky.social

So lovely to see the main London Road into Brighton closed to traffic and open to humans running, the air is clearer and the birdsong is louder. Why do we tolerate so much traffic in our cities?

An impressive group of Greens showing solidarity with Quakers outside New Scotland Yard. The silence of a peaceful gathering making a powerful point.

⚖️ The scales aren’t balanced. The govt is cutting support for disabled people while refusing to tax extreme wealth. After 15 years of austerity, it's time to rebalance our economy—for good. Tax wealth fairly. Invest in people. Protect our future.

When our local paper publishes this news online from our City the Council, the Comments section will implode. 😁 www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/news/2025/ha...

For Palestinians being killed and the future of human rights, we must keep calling out our Government’s complicity in this genocide. The UK has now issued more new arms licences than it pitifully suspended last year. Israel's violation of international law is our violation of international law.

🔴 Labour cutting disability benefits. 🔵 Tories attacking Net Zero. 🟣 Reform fueling hatred in our communities. 💚 There's never been a better time to join the Green Party. ✅ Join.greenparty.org.uk

If you want a clear illustration of the Government’s disregard for really engaging with disabled people, they have produced NO accessible versions of their plans today.

Today I asked if the Government will apologise to my constituents in Brighton Pavilion for causing genuine terror this past week by actively trailing rumours of cuts to lifeline benefits. The Minister's response👇

"My challenge to Ed Miliband is, don’t undermine the whole of your national climate strategy by allowing major airport expansion and the new Rosebank oilfield." I spoke to the Guardian about how Labour is failing on the environment. Read more on the Guardian 👇 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The murmurations are such a Brighton institution, it’s a disaster to be losing the starlings for something so needless! Please email your MP and ask them to support my Bill to ban pesticide use in public spaces: edm.parliament.uk/early-day-mo...

In the wake of Grenfell, the humanitarian response was nowhere near good enough and it fell to grieving community groups to pick up the pieces. It is vital that there is a full review of the Civil Contingencies Act, as recommended, to ensure decisive and rapid disaster response.

Trump sank to new depths with his tirade of disinformation about President Zelenskyy. (Fact checker here: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...) @eddavey.libdems.org.uk is right, all of the UK must stand firmly with Ukraine against Trump's dangerous propaganda, taken direct from Putin's playbook.

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

If we introduce tax breaks for millionaires like Nigel Farage and Richard Tice, we will not have the money to restore our NHS.

Green MP Adrian Ramsay to Richard Tice: “The reality is, if you bring in tax breaks for yourself and Nigel Farage we will not have the investment that we need to restore our National Health Service” #bbclaurak

Good morning to this man, and this man only #bbcqt

Expansion with a side of...expansion 🙄 These ‘economic benefits’ won’t reach anyone except Heathrow’s bosses. If Labour Ministers approve these plans, they’ll officially be making worse climate decisions than the last lot. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Someone needs to tell Mandleson ethnic cleansing doesn't need to be "respected, understood and adjusted for." www.bbc.com/news/article...

If Labour approves the Rosebank oil field, it would be the final straw for many of its green-minded voters. It might appease corporate power for a moment, but in doing so it will lose far more than it gains. The government seems to be on a self-destructive streak. Now's the time to rethink.

Every word I read about congestion pricing reminds me of when they reintroduced wolves in Yellowstone and the whole ecosystem started working correctly again.

Want to get Labour to finance active travel properly? Pretend you're representing oil companies and airports when asking for money, and they'll throw bucketloads of money your way

Finally, some good news. Gaie should never have been imprisoned in the first place.

1. If Trump runs out of immigrants to persecute, I suspect the next target for his performative sadism will be people with disabilities. Already, without a shred of evidence, he has blamed the air crash on disabled air traffic controllers, with horrible, stereotyping slurs about their disabilities.🧵

And surplus from parking fees can be spent on making active travel better. So freezing the former rewards all drivers but punishes everyone who walks, wheels or cycles.

So wonderful to just witness (I believe) a kestrel hovering just 10m from me in our wonderful community park of #MableyGreen in #Hackney! This is what happens when you let nature do its thing & stop mowing! #birdofprey @rspb.bsky.social @hackneycouncil.bsky.social @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social

BREAKING: We’re outside Rachel Reeves' big speech announcing support for a third runway at Heathrow to remind her of a basic fact: there’s no growth on a dead planet. 🧵

Just seen the techbro involvement in the new US administration referred to as "the Nerd Reich" and I'm going to need a minute.

When a government tells us, within the course of one week, that we can't have new hospitals but must have new runways, you know that it is not working on our behalf, but on behalf of economic power.
