How can we mobilise all these new people? It's a big challenge for smaller parties like us, who are starting from a fairly small capacity I mean - great problem to have, dont get me wrong 🤣 💚🥳

@emgreenparty.bsky.social Hi Folks, we have a new account Could you add us to your lists pls? bsky.app/profile/bass...

Emily is lovely 😍

Yesterday, Nottingham City Council joined other councils around the country in passing a boycott and divestment motion. Powerful speech in favour of the motion by the city's Green councillor below, praising the steadfastness of the people of Nottingham in opposing the atrocities.

'These camps are a political decision. We don't have to do it this way'

These crabs have style

It's my 40th birthday today and I'm aiming to raise £750 towards my London Marathon target by the end of the day, raising funds for BookTrust. Just £24 to go to hit my £750 milestone! www.justgiving.com/page/helen-t...

If you don't want our next government to be Reform, whatever party you're from, the answer has to be Proportional Representation. Labour are so close on this. Thier MPs want it. Their conference voted for it... So close. What would get it over the line?

In general, the media is too ready to platform randos spouting nonsense. Yes. But that ain't this. Jo White is our MP - the elected representative for all the people in my town. If she is saying stuff like this, I want to hear it, to know what she is saying on our behalf. Thats public interest.

One of the worst features of the 21st century discourse is the "complex problems require complicated solutions" trope. The solutions are generally, at heart, simple. Carrying them through tends to require strategy, planning, leadership, advocacy, persistence, resources. Oh, and courage.

If women are the ones ruining all the things, then we're bloody good at it aren't we? So efficient. What is there left to ruin, even?

Celebrity Traitors - yes, Joe! Finally!

Clickbait conman in lack of substance shocker!

Imagining a Terminator movie scenario but all the androids are made of mushrooms.

✂️ Reform will cut the minimum wage for younger workers. 💷 The Green Party will increase the minimum wage to £15 an hour, no matter how old you are. ✅️ Join the only party that believes everyone deserves a real living wage: Join.greenparty.org.uk

This EDM was really good. Our local Labour MP Jo tabled it, and it had Lib Dem, Independant, Green supporters (thanks @sianberry.bsky.social ). Just wish we could do more of this. More exams will not encourage children to read. edm.parliament.uk/early-day-mo...

Teachers are resisting our schools being forced become even more intensive #ExamFactories. Well done teachers. Labour wedded to Victorian ideas of education and seeking to push schools even further into competition www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Command and control, heavily centralised government is so inefficient. Straightjacket, rigid KPIs from London > actually getting stuff done across the public sector. The worst of it is when its forced onto our children.

Anthropocene as a biological event - the massive increase in human and domesticated mammal biomass vs the startling decrease in land and marine wild mammal biomass in the past 160yrs, as documented the great team of Ron Milo in Nat Comms. Sobering graph. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thursday night online for @greenparty.org.uk members: delighted to be talking about my recent visit to Ukraine with Viktoriya Ball, organiser of feminist youth climate movement Rozviy. An event organised by Green Ukraine Solidarity #StandWithUkraine www.eventbrite.com/e/the-green-...

That money could have given an elderly person time with a carer. They say the flags will help the community. You know what helps the community? Looking after those of us who need it.

Notts County Council spending £75k on more flags. Includes six sites in Worksop. Why? People are already doing this for free! What a waste of public money. Shows Reform's priorities. westbridgfordwire.com/plans-to-ins...

Speaker / discussion session for Green Party members next Thursday evening. With Natalie Bennett (just back from Ukraine) and Viktoriya Ball (Ukrainian climate activist and GPEW member). Should be interesting. Join link in quoted post.

The Bassetlaw Greens now have 120 members. That's just over triple what we had going into the county elections last Spring. Reform absolutely dominated those elections here. One of them stood on a platform that climate change was a hoax and then won with over half the vote. 🤦‍♀️😟 Honestly, I was...

I recommend this to new members - it shows how all our policies fit together in a really clear, straightforward way

British.

YouTube closed captions can't cope with a Northern Accent. We now have @owenjones.bsky.social announcing our new #GreenParty leader as ZACK BADLAD-SKI

Really enjoying the Green Party conference this year. It's absolutely buzzing, so much more ambition than we have had before. Join.greenparty.org.uk

When politicians and governments say this kind of thing we should believe them. And stand against them. Russia and Israel.

Samuel L Jackson studied marine biology as an undergrad and is promoting windfarms. There is no limit to his legend.

I always really liked Ellie, in particular. In part because she seemed warm and kind. But its a bit rich to call Zack 'divisive' when the Ellie/Adrian campaign has been so negative and attack focussed. All the content I see from Zack is about promoting Green policy, not dragging his opponents.

What a brilliant man he was. Huge respect.

Retford Pride. August 2nd. Get it in the diaries!

Yes. Brilliant.

🫠 Jon Cunliffe's review into the water sector deliberately left out the option of public ownership. 💸 The only way to stop millions of pounds being siphoned off for huge CEO salaries and shareholder dividends is to end the scam of privatised water. 🤝 Public ownership now.

So impressed by Cllr Emma Oldham persuading Newark & Sherwood council to adopt her swift bricks policy yesterday. Knocked back in Westminster, but it's still got wings locally. 💚💚💚🪶

As we head into the 3rd heatwave of the summer, *please* take just 2 moments to sign this petition calling on government to help our communities adapt & prepare for the impacts of #climate change. We are not safe — we need to be #SAFER @climatemajority.bsky.social

This level of failure is bizarre. It's like National Highways had never planted trees before. They didn't check if they had the right species or were putting them in the right places or too close together... Did they hand the job of planning this to a work experience student?

There's also an open letter you can sign here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Put up our first stakeboard today in Ranskill. Achievement unlocked, will do many more next time. It's a bit swallowed by the hedge but at least it doesn't look like a hangman's gallows, like the one just down the road....

Frank has so much energy and enthusiasm. I think he'd get a lot done in the leadership team.

Ellie's speech is so clear and so right. Yesterday's vote was a betrayal. Not only of the civilians being systematically murdered in Gaza, but of our democracy.

Proportional Representation Please

The UK Met Office is canvassing for storm names…..

I have three candidates who have agreed to be interviewed for my youtube channel so far. Does anyone have any other questions?

This makes the world less safe, not more.

The thing is, if we don't continually destabilise the Middle East and make the world a less safe place, we won't need to make as many weapons, and that would be bad for the economy.
