This is the kind of question our media should be asking 👇🏼

Nathan Gill sentenced to 10.5 years for taking bribes to promote Russian talking points (something Farage apparently did for free). Judge notes "grave betrayal of the trust placed in you by the electorate". Good to see at least one far-right Reform crook held to account.

"I always believed in working with people to achieve the best for our city..." @russell-moyle.co.uk on the reason he decided to leave the Labour Party for the Green Party.

At the Budget, the Green Party's message is clear: Cut Bills. Tax Billionaires.

What a brilliant interview with @zackpolanski.bsky.social join.greenpart.org.uk

🤯 The government have announced that university tuition fees in England will increase every year in line with inflation from 2026. 🧑🎓 Education should be a right, not a privilege. 💚 That's why the Green Party would scrap tuition fees altogether.

Yet another dismissive, party-political answer by the PM at PMQs. The disparity between the UK's wealthiest and poorest is growing every day, with millions struggling with cost of living. When will the PM accept that the problem in our country is inequality, not immigration?

“Islamophobia is rife in our society and I say this as a Jewish man.” Rising star and new leader of the UK’s Green Party Zack Polanski joined @mehdirhasan.bsky.social to discuss the dangerous anti-Islam rhetoric in UK politics. zeteo.com/p/it-makes-m...

The interviewer asks @zackpolanski.bsky.social if he's worried about splitting the left vote & whether the best way to beat the right is to vote Labour. Zack: "The idea that the Labour party are on the left is completely incoherent"

We elected our first Green MP in Sussex, we have Green leadership on councils across Sussex, and now we have an opportunity to elect a Green Mayor for Sussex. 💚 Let's do this. Sign up for the campaign with the link in my bio.

Powerful message. Let's stand up for peace, not fall where the far right wants us to fall.

What is the point of building new homes, if they are: a) too expensive for people to live in, and b) don't have essential services like a GP surgery or a school nearby? Very concerning that the Housing Secretary doesn't seem to understand that... or doesn't care.

Remember, remember...well...the 18th October, if you're at Seaford bonfire night!

British.

Great to see the progress on refurbishing the playground at Walmer Rd rec! Can't wait till it re-opens! Green-led Lewes District Council is investing in playgrounds. Vital to families' well-being; essential for kids' physical development - especially when indoor activities can be so expensive!

Very pleased that police now have 2 men in custody following the firebombing of Peacehaven mosque. It was really humbling to talk to leaders of the mosque on Sunday and hear their commitment to peace and the community shine through, in the face of being targeted in this heinous attack. Solidarity!

Southern Water customers pay the highest water bills in England, yet pipes are haemhorraging water + investment in infrastructure to prevent water shortage has been paltry. Now, the Test, a precious, fragile chalk stream, is paying the price: 🧵 1/12 www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Labour's simplemindedness will be its downfall - and ours. You can't build and bulldoze your way out of the housing crisis. Unless you also change the system, you'll still leave millions without decent homes. My column today explains why. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

After a *low confidence* CIA conclusion, Republican Senator Tom Cotton says "Now, the most important thing is to make China pay for unleashing a plague on the world." Maybe Republicans should start preparing for *very likely* future health and climate catastrophies instead? Just a thought...

Really pleased the minister agreed to meet me to discuss my #RentersRightsBill amendment to give disabled people the right to adapt their home to meet their needs. Not counting chickens yet but potential big win for all who campaigned on this. I'll continue to push this forward.

My message today: We must keep the local in local government! So much concern today at the @LGA_Independent conference amongst Green and and Indie cllrs over the government's rushed and undemocratic power grab. This is not devolution it's regionalisation. 👇

Save our local elections! Fantastic turnout for today's protest - residents and councillors from across East Sussex - Lewes District Green Party in force 👇 Tory County Councillors are trying to kill democracy. Cancelling local elections which they know they will lose is a shocking power grab!

Ahead of “e-bike” Panorama tonight can we clearly distinguish between: 🚲 legal e-assist bikes limited to 15.5 mph 🚲 dockless hire e-bikes like Lime paid by the minute so incentivising poor riding and 🚲 illegal kit conversion e-bikes with a throttle sometimes used by (exploited) delivery riders

The astonishing cognitive dissonance of a health secretary who insists he'll save the NHS - yet kicks the social care crisis into touch until 2028. 1 in 8 medically fit NHS patients cannot leave hospital for lack of social care. Of course A&E is overwhelmed 🤷‍♀️ www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Democracy is not up for negotiation, and elections mustn't be cancelled just because those in power might find them inconvenient. Use this template letter to tell Government Minister Jim McMahon not to agree to ESCC Tories request to cancel elections👇🏼 actionnetwork.org/letters/dont...

Too cheap to meter? Prices for power in Europe are going negative for significant periods of time as renewable energy takes off www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

2024 was provisionally the fourth warmest year on record for the UK. With extreme weather events on our doorstep the Government must urgently show the political courage to tackle the climate and inequality crises.

To paraphrase Mary Oliver - tell me, what is it you plan to do with your once-in-a-generation wild and precious House of Commons 400-seat majority? … Because, if this isn’t what you wanted it for, then what exactly ARE you planning to spend that very rare electoral mandate on?

When it comes to food-related emissions, the question isn’t “where” food is grown. It’s “what” food is it? (Especially beef and dairy.) And “how” it was grown? (Especially if it’s linked to deforestation or excessive fertilizer use.)

Let’s look at the first example following Starmer’s speech: The “…final report on [Social Care] reforms would not emerge until 2028.” i.e. no systemic change in this Parliament. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

"There is no solution to the crisis in the NHS that doesn’t include a solution for social care." Dismayed to see Wes Streeting acknowledge this - yet kick the issue into long grass with a commission that won't report until 2028. What hope for the NHS now? What hope for those needing care now?

Over in the other place, the billionaire owner is threatening to fund ‘moderate’ (rightwing) candidates in heavily Democratic districts too. This is what oligarchy looks like. It’s the biggest threat to democracy today. Not ‘cancel culture.’ Not trans kids. Not college protesters. Oligarchy.

Labour, stop dithering over weak caps on political donations from corporations - ban them altogether! Have parties be funded by (capped) donations from actual people who live in the country. Democracy? But no, that would hurt Labour, Tories, Lib Dems & Reform www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Today's announcement is a disaster for communities & environment & will totally fail to fix the housing crisis The Green Party says to Labour: stop wrecking planning - but start fixing housing! Truly affordable homes, built to the right standards and in the right place. 🧵1/3

We all need the reminder that many of the changes needed to respond to the climate crisis aren’t a matter of giving something up, but getting something new: a better commute, a more comfortable home or a healthier life. That’s a fight anyone can sign up for. www.nationalobserver.com/2024/12/02/o...

Turns out just giving plant-based meals premium visibility and marketing on shelves, tables and menus can make a big difference in getting people to eat those meals over meat-centric ones. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

"It's not zealotry, it's science." Ellie Chowns calls out climate science denial on BBC Politics Live.

The government is legally required to make the UK net zero by 2050 , but we’re seriously off track to achieving our climate targets . Warmer homes , cheaper energy , better transport , cleaner air and decent green jobs are achievable . . . but we need action . 1/

#Democracy - it would be a good idea

Today is Equal Pay Day, when women effectively stop being paid compared to their male colleagues. We would require all large and medium-size companies to carry out equal pay audits and redress any inequality uncovered. Equal pay for equal work should not be too much to ask.

Feels like the media narrative post budget has now entirely focused on farmers. Meanwhile the two child benefit cap currently affects nearly 2 million children. Child poverty isn’t just a statistic – it’s a crisis. A crisis made from political choices. A crisis of clothing, heat and food.

This poses further urgent questions into Keir Starmers position in this. The ICC are saying there is reasonable grounds that Netanyahu bore "criminal responsibility for alleged war crimes." And our country has been an active enabler in the genocide. www.bbc.com/news/article...
