Despite it being obvious that the time of two-party politics is over, the govt laid out no plans to introduce a fairer voting system in the King's Speech. That's why Green MPs tabled an amendment on the need to bring in proportional representation and make every voice heard.

Welcome to Benali Hamdache, who will be the new Assembly Member for the Green Party.

Nice analysis of the climate costs of Chrome pushing a 4GB Geminin nano to people's devices. Even just looking purely at the download (ignoring inference, re-downloads etc) it's substantial (not sure it's 'insane'), and shows the Google is just kinda doing stuff pretty thoughtlessly

“What you get when you vote Green are local, very hardworking councillors who are absolutely committed to two vested interests - people and planet.” Green Party Deputy Leader Rachel Millward contrasts Green councillors with other parties on #BBCQT

My friends at the Green Web Foundation have a fantastic new report out today. I was really happy to be a reviewer and get a sneaky peek before you all. They also used some of the data I've collected depicting how companies have veered wildly away from their climate goals: bsky.app/profile/mrch...

Projected profits for Chevron, Shell, BP, ConocoPhillips, Exxon and TotalEnergies in 2026: $94 billion. Enough to "provide solar power for the energy needs of almost 50 million people in Africa" www.oxfam.org/en/press-rel...

Glad to support this! I've been working on the @greenparty.org.uk's Advertising policy rewrite while watching digital advertising springing up on North Finchley high street, cluttering, polluting and burning energy.

I've just supported the Green House Think Tank fundraiser: www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/green-hous... They're a really vital UK think tank building the intellectual and critical foundations for effective environmental policy for Green movements - please donate if you can to help them grow.

The many media outlets calling @greenparty.org.uk transport policy a “war on motorists” should try talking to bereaved families and seriously injured survivors of road crashes rather than ignoring the trauma and pain left when people drive without considering the harm they may cause at the wheel.

Happy Easter from Barnet Green Party 🐇🥚🌱

1/7 I’m a Green Party councillor for City Ward #Sheffield. It’s a densely populated urban ward. I’m going to talk about digital advertising screens, which doesn’t sound exciting, but please bear with me. I want to explain why I spend time objecting to so many of these. Since 2023, I’ve …

Hope. People. Truth. Sustainability. As May 7th approaches, we'll be exploring the details of each of our priorities and what they mean for Barnet. For now, we'll leave our statement here. We stand by every word. Together, we can create real change. Be part of it 🌱💚 #hope

He cycles everywhere. He just takes a lot longer now. Because he keeps stopping to pick up rubbish. Read about one man’s daily fight against litter – and what he’s learnt ⤵️ @eastangliabylines.co.uk

Good journalists aren’t part time amateurs. Investigative journos even less so. To fight back our troops need to be “armed and ready” and that means funded.

Great interview with @davidfloydnews.bsky.social managing editor of @barnetpost.bsky.social: pressgazette.co.uk/publishers/r... Indie journalism is vital for scrutinising local politics and keeping our democracy healthy. Support if you can! barnetpost.co.uk/support-us/

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Just spent two days knocking doors in Gorton and Denton. Knocking is just as the polling shows. Lots of Greens, plenty of Reform and many Labour. The self organising of crowds of people from all over the country to help @greenpartyhan.bsky.social to win this was a joy to see. 🧵on the doors…

Drug deaths have risen every year for 13 years. That’s 13 years of a failed “war on drugs”. Labour should be looking at legalisation, control and regulation - not playing politics with people’s lives. This is a public health crisis. Treat it like one. Not a game.

Stoneygate (Leicester) Council By-Election Result: 🌍 GRN: 30.4% (+22.9) 🌹 LAB: 27.7% (-12.8) 🏘️ OL: 16.2% (New) 🙋 Ind: 11.5% (New) 🌳 CON: 8.3% (-15.3) ➡️ RFM: 2.7% (New) 🔶 LDM: 1.6% (-5.9) 🙋 Ind: 1.6% (New) No Ind (-21.0) as previous. Green GAIN from Labour. Changes w/ 2023.

✂️ The multi-millionaires in Reform want to 'look at' cutting the minimum wage for young people. 📈 The Green Party would increase the minimum wage for everybody. 🤑 It's clear where Reform's interests lie. ✅️ Vote Green to put everyday people before the super-rich.

2nd story on BBC radio 4 bulletins now Still huge questions to answer about Labour Together smearing journalists and sources As I revealed yesterday, senior Labour insiders knew - and person who commissioned it, Josh Simons, now a Starmer minister…. democracyforsale.substack.com/p/starmer-al...

Happy SLAPPing? It looks like the government’s crackdown on using vexatious litigation to silence people is cracking up before it’s even begun: https://www.thetimes.com/article/72083754-3a92-427d-85bb-18c5b33def2e

barnetpost.co.uk/2026/02/07/i... Barnet has it's first Green Councillor!

The UN Secretary General has said it's time to move beyond GDP and measure "the things that really matter to people and their communities." He's right.

Please, don’t just stand with Ella’s legacy at events Stand with her in action Clean air is not negotiable It's every child and adult Londoners right 4.

@london.gov.uk please reconsider your refusal to ban fossil fuel product advertising on TfL I know that you know Ella Roberta Kissi-Debrah was only 9 years old when she died, and that air pollution in London is officially recognised as a contributing factor in her needless and preventable death 1.

There are many similarities between now and 400 years ago. Raising the floor for each and every one was another.

We need a UK Digital Sovereignty Strategy! Our over-reliance on foreign tech giants is a huge risk to our security and resilience when faced with Donald Trump’s ever increasing belligerence. Companies like Palantir have no place in our critical digital infrastructure.

A little egret has made its home in Friary Park's new wetland area.

Planting more trees with @theorchardproject.bsky.social and @earthwatcheurope.bsky.social yesterday in Stoneyfields Park, Edgware. It was Imbolc, Celtic spring, Tu B'Shevat, the Jewish New Year for Trees, and St Brigid's Day, the patron saint of poetry - so a poem by the wonderful Janet Sutherland

*This* is a large number of supporters and activists! All out today delivering over 40,000 leaflets across Gorton and Denton for Hannah Spencer

Labour have taken votes for granted for decades. Stop Reform - and send this Government a message. Support Hannah Spencer & the Green Party in Gorton & Denton! youtu.be/pXZ7r05JtGg?...

Through writing a story about climate change, you can help shape new research at the @uofgsocsci.bsky.social into what people in Scotland think and feel about the changing climate and whether this has an impact on their mental health or emotional wellbeing. 1/2

barnetpost.co.uk/2026/01/28/c... A great campaign to try and hold Barnet Council to account on wages. One of the last 4 councils in London not yet signed up to paying fair wages.

i was actually shocked to see the numbers on new research from Global Energy Monitor on new gas projects in the US: nearly 100 gigawatts of power—enough to power tens of millions of homes—are currently in development explicitly to power data centers. At the end of 2023 that number was 4 gigawatts

I made it to 4 wassails this month in North London: Friary Park, Castlehaven, Hollickwood Park and Broomfield Park. Great community bonding, bonkers, joyous celebrations, and a giant pigeon called Big Pidge! Loved seeing the New Esperance Morris dancers

#Goodgym #Barnet have been helping asylum seekers across the borough volunteer with local community projects. There's so much need and they are so eager to help, it's great to be able to break down barriers! @goodgym.bsky.social

The plan to build 260 houses on Brislington Meadows fails to consider new evidence on wildlife variety & climate breakdown that has emerged since 2023. Building hundreds of houses on @brismeadows.bsky.social amounts to over-development. conserverliving.blogspot.com/2026/01/new-...

No more of that Johari Window rubbish about 'things we don't know we know': they know alright. Ecological experts keep talking about 'old landscapes' - habitats that take centuries to form and sustain some of the rarest, most enriching parts of nature, and they can't be offset by weak metrics.

Labour: ‘we need to shoot down slogans and easy fixes that don’t work’. Also Labour: ‘anyway, here’s our Trump-inspired slogan which offers an easy fix that doesn’t work.’
