Just a reminder that the hotel owner from Home Alone 2: Lost in New York is not a reliable source of information. Take paracetamol when you need it. Call on the government to fight climate change. And the only minority destroying this country are the rich. #RefugeesWelcome #BelieveScience

Zack Polanski, leader of the Green party, praised Khan’s response as “exactly what the leader of a diverse and vibrant city like London should say. These words only amplify the silence coming from those in Westminster who seem unable or unwilling to speak out”. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Reminder that there will be a protest at Lockheed Martin in Havant on October 8th. Go to ppsc.uk for more details. 📷Spotted in Palmerston Road.

Here is the graph showing the full scale of @zackpolanski.bsky.social's impact on the party, using a true-time axis. It shows the absolutely incredible gains the green party have made over the past week or so in membership figures!

The green party have overtaken the Liberal Democrats in membership figures! (Including the scottish greens)

"This Labour government is no kind of green government." @sianberry.bsky.social speaks to Sky News about Labour's baffling decision to allow a second runway at Gatwick airport.

Zack Polanski on Gatwick expansion: "It ignores basic climate science, and undermines efforts to tackle the climate crisis. Labour keeps wheeling out the same nonsense about growth, but at what cost? More pollution, more noise, and no real economic benefit. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

How many more red lines will Israel cross while our government distracts us by waving the St George Flag? We've tagged Oxfam so you can find the link to sign on their page. #FreePalestine

@zackpolanski.bsky.social "We need more council homes, we need more investment in the NHS. I agree but none of that is the problem of migrants. The problem is multi millionaires & billionaires not paying enough tax & not enough investment in public services. Those are all political choices"

We needed this laugh right now #TrumpProtest

Pompey Greens on the march in London today.

3 London Labour councillors defect to the Greens, as Labour are “refusing to take a stand on Gaza”, “adopting divisive anti-immigration rhetoric”, “supporting cuts that leave vulnerable families without support” and “failing to act on the cost-of-living crisis”. www.standard.co.uk/news/politic...

7. So maybe Keir Starmer should listen to this. If you don't know what to do with power, if you have no project other than staying in office, no moral core, no plan to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable, no trace of Labour values, perhaps you should step aside for someone who does.

Petition to ban harmful ads. Portsmouth declared a climate emergency, yet is still plastered with ads for fast food, dirty cars, and fossil fuels. These ads directly increase consumption of harmful products, contributing to obesity and poor air quality. democracy.portsmouth.gov.uk/mgEPetitionD...

Okay, so going plastic-free isn't always feasible but it's always nice when the plastic-free option is cheaper #PlasticFree #FoodShop

Green MP Carla Denyer: “The overlap between active trade union organisers and Greens is getting stronger and stronger all the time, and that’s because we’ve got a similar vision for what the UK could be with the right policies.” leftfootforward.org/2025/09/gree...

I don't know who needs to hear this but Olio isn't a dating site and your first message to someone listing free food shouldn't be about their attractiveness. And frankly, this makes women less comfortable sharing things with the local community, especially giving out their address. #WomensSafety

Looking to get out and about this weekend? Why not spend a couple of hours with your fellow Greens to clean up an area of Somerstown? We strongly encourage you to bring your own reusable gloves (i.e gardening gloves) but we have bags, litter pickers, and gloves available. #LitterPick #Portsmouth

The Scottish Greens, the Green Party of Northern Ireland, the Green Party of England and Wales, and the Welsh Green Party have today issued a rare joint call on the BBC to withdraw from the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest coverage if Israel is permitted to participate. greenparty.org.uk/2025/09/12/u...

No other party says the basic truth: migration is good for Britain. The real problem? Inequality, soaring bills, underfunded public services. That’s driven by the greed of the super rich and the Labour government who serve them - not by migrants.

We're hosting a protest sign workshop this Thursday at 6.30 pm, just ahead of our monthly meeting (but you don't have to be a party member to join to workshop!) Check your emails or DM us for the address. No special skills needed and equipment will be supplied. #Portsmouth #GreenParty

Zack Polanski joins a panel at the TUC Congress in Brighton on How to Tax the Super-Rich today. “The Green Party stands in solidarity with the TUC in saying there must be no watering down of Workers’ Rights, which are at the heart of economic, social and racial justice."

Does this make you angry? This is what happens when the government taxes work and not wealth. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. #WealthTax

The government bases policy decisions on how they will play in the Daily Fail and the Torygraph, meanwhile the @greenparty.org.uk wealth tax plan has massive public support. www.tuc.org.uk/news/public-...

@bhlabour.bsky.social have selected an anti-trans and anti-migrant candidate in the current Queen’s Park by-election The mask is off - now we see the real current Labour Party www.scenemag.co.uk/brighton-hov...

Since this is apparently a resigning matter, I’ll just leave this here… www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Changing planning law to create a special category for asylum seekers is inappropriate and dangerous. We should speed up applications and let people work – not leave them in inadequate hotel rooms. #RefugeesWelcome #AsylumJustice

"I haven’t felt this positive about politics ever. I think we can be a really powerful voice." @mothinali.bsky.social speaks to the Guardian following his election as Co-Deputy Leader of the Green Party ⤵️

"The bold leadership of the Green Party means being unapologetic about the things we stand for and what we stand against. And I think that's a party people can get behind." New Leader @zackpolanski.bsky.social outlines why people are leaving Labour and turning to the Green Party.

We're starting a Young Greens group in Portsmouth, and we'd love you to join! 💚 If you're under 30 or a full time student & you want to learn more about politics & work towards building a fairer city and country for everyone, get involved! DM us for more details, or to be added to the group chat.

Zack Polanski on the arrest of Graham Linehan. "In the last five years, hate crimes against the LGBTQ community has risen 112 per cent. So the first thing anyone should be saying within this conversation is solidarity to trans people across this country." www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

“It was a lovely sunny day. I’d been building sandcastles and catching shrimps in rock pools with my six-year-old. Suddenly there were these people throwing beer bottles at us, and shouting: ‘Get out of our country’ and ‘Paki bastards’.” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Draw the line. Join the Green Party today ⤵️ join.greenparty.org.uk?utm_source=s...

Telling it like it is, and cutting through.

Education minister Stephen Morgan yesterday claimed “35,000 people have been deported”. That’s not correct, according to the government’s own data. The figure refers to *total immigration returns* in Labour’s first year, most of which were voluntary.

Time for a plan for Tipner West that puts sustainability at its heart. www.hiwwt.org.uk/news/wildlif...

Question to Zach Polanski at the leadership announcement: "Q: How can you take on Nigel Farage when your policy on immigration is so different?" Everything wrong with British politics and media summed up so succinctly in a single absolutely unhinged question.

Congratulations to the newly elected Leader of the Green Party of England & Wales, @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Turns out most of the things the Green Party is calling for, Labour members are crying out for as well. Water & rail nationalisation, electoral reform, action on the climate emergency, yet the government thinks these are all far too left wing to contemplate. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/08...

"We could resolve this by creating safe, legal and managed routes." @elliechowns.bsky.social responds to Reform's dangerous rhetoric on migration with the Green Party's genuine, compassionate, common-sense solutions.

For diaries in Portsmouth and surrounds: hope to see you on October 1, when I'll be talking #ChangeEverything www.eventbrite.com/e/an-evening...

What’s this Reform UK Councillor George Madgwick of Portsmouth? You were ordered to pay an employee money at an employment tribunal? www.gov.uk/employment-t...

The Labour response to Farage policy of leaving the Refugee & Humam Rights Convention should not be “he won’t deliver”. It should be “this is not morally right” (not “British values” even). Voters want to see authentic consistent leadership. Not debate the workability of cruelty.

The total lack of basic journalistic professionalism of this BBC story - summarising Farage proposals with (at time of writing) no attempt to include the views of other parties, refugee advocates etc www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The fact that an anti-migrant politician, who tells us every single day that he doesn't like immigration, is saying it once again, is not in any way news

Migrants didn't cut council funding. Migrants didn't cut NHS funding. Migrants didn't close youth centres. Migrants didn't sell off council houses. Migrants aren't filling our rivers with sewage. Farage and co. will tell you to point the finger at migrants. Don't fall for it.
