watching the UKs green party elect an actual unafraid leftist into leadership and see party membership double in under a month is once again endless proof that if you stand up for leftist causes and treat the electorate like adults, you’ll win people over easily

Lower Bills. Protect our NHS. And invest in our communities. Let's make hope normal again. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Wow! 92 new members of the Oxfordshire South and Vale Green Party in just the last 7 days 💚 😃. Good job we've got a by-election coming up to keep them busy 😆. If you're still thinking about it, go to Join.greenparty.org.uk to get us over the 100k mark nationally!

In 2024 across the whole of the UK just one pedestrian was killed by a cyclist.

Watching @zackpolanski.bsky.social on #BBCQT tonight and I'm so proud to be a member of the Green Party 💚

We can't keep up... Yesterday we reached 90,000 members. Today we're at 95,000. Be part of the Green surge. Join the Green Party today ⤵️

Wealth inequality is a shameful indictment of how badly our country has been governed over the past 15 years or so. Only the Green Party is serious about fixing this.

Wow!

And if you haven't seen it, go to seek it out on BBC iPlayer or ITVX immediately!

BBC now suggesting they didn't interview Zack Polanski on Laura Kuenssberg when he was elected because they weren't on air then. Which is technically true because he was elected on a Tuesday. However, they did air just days later on Sunday and featured interviews with Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

🎉 80,000 Green Party members! 📈 But we're not stopping there. 💚 We have no time to waste. Join the Green Party today ⤵️

Brilliantly referenced thread on the folly of central government micromanaging tiny amounts of local govt investment, when they should just fund local govt properly. The 2010-15 coalition government has a lot to answer for.

Fantastic AGM for the newly formed Oxfordshire South and Vale Green Party today! Great to see new faces, some of whom joined because of @zackpolanski.bsky.social being elected leader. Excellent energy and ideas for future campaigns!

This is really exciting! Our group of @greenparty.org.uk Councillors in South Oxfordshire is planning ways to build on this positive reaction to the election of @zackpolanski.bsky.social!

Nigel Farage claims his mass deportation plan would save the UK hundreds of billions of pounds over the coming decades. New analysis of official statistics, forecasts and Reform's own figures suggests it would actually *cost* the UK hundreds of billions over the same period

This man is so clearly unfit to lead any political party, let alone the government!

A multi-millionaire attacking working-class families isn't patriotism. It's cowardice. www.thenational.scot/news/2548477...

A recent poll had Greens just ahead of Libdems and now we've overtaken them membership numbers across Great Britain. Greens are on the up! join.greenparty.org.uk

Wow, looks like we're getting over 1000 new members per day!! Shows that there are still some people who generally prefer hope over hate 💚.

Let's go! It's now 74,000. Membership rising fast 🚀 Join.greenparty.org.uk

Continuing our visit to East Sussex with a little trip to Hastings. A town of two halves, for sure, but so many hidden gems in the Old Town, particularly the Fishermen's Museum!

But according to Nigel Farage there is no free speech in the UK 🙄.

We're camping in East Sussex for the first time - what a lovely county it is! Currently just outside Rye, enjoying fresh fish bought at the fish market in town.

The scenes on our streets are shameful consequences of decades of austerity - government after government fanning the flames of anti migration instead of tackling inequality. We can & must make different choices. Solidarity to all communities under attack. We stand together.

"He has no values, no principles and he will defend Peter Mandelson up until he thinks he needs to for his own career" 👀

Lucy Connolly was convicted of inciting racial hatred, and her tweet was part of the tinder that lit violence, intimidation, looting, and thuggery across England last year. The fact Reform conference gave her a standing ovation says everything about that movement. bylinetimes.com/2025/08/27/l...

Kemi Badenoch’s ‘Free Speech’ Conservatives Ban Byline Times From Party Conference The ban on covering the party’s annual gathering came despite Badenoch’s repeated commitment to “fight” for free speech and a free press bylinetimes.com/2025/09/04/k...

We must tackle inequality. Your bills are not high because of migrants. The NHS is not crumbling because of migrants. It's because of politicians who only serve the super rich. 👇🏼 youtu.be/RhD2ZuKrXPg?...

GMB's Susannah Reid clearly furious with Kevin Maguire for telling the truth about asylum seekers. Maguire was right and correct to say that Reid's fellow ITV presenter Rylan Clark "regurgitated a load of myths and lies" about asylum seekers. Full item: youtu.be/PC7m5f_Ryp8?...

Thoughtful analysis of what @zackpolanski.bsky.social could do for progressive politics in the UK.

So thrilled that @zackpolanski.bsky.social won such a convincing victory! Brilliant interview tonight on @channel4news.bsky.social - a politician who answers questions honestly and speaks with genuine passion and integrity!

This should be headline news - the implications are horrifying …

It's not asylum seekers who jack up rents, undermine the NHS, hold down wages and keep people insecure. It's capital. The role of the far right is to shift the blame for decades of economic attacks by the rich and powerful onto powerless people who have only just arrived here.

Unlike most farmers, Guy Singh-Watson says we need to eat less meat, that large-scale farmers should pay inheritance tax and that Brexit has been “a complete and utter fuck-up”. He’s the most brutally honest farmer in the UK. @dpcarrington.bsky.social

Shout out to all the other political prisoners who openly called for the burning of human beings, entered a guilty plea, got released after doing 40% of their sentence, and were immediately free to go on supportive media channels to criticise the government that locked them up.

#RighttoBuy - always opposed by @greenparty.org.uk. A massive, disastrous #Privatisation. Why is it continuing under this Labour government? www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Let’s hope it’s a productive conversation and not this ‘hostile takeover’ nonsense that was doing the rounds. It can’t be a hostile takeover if it’s a message that resonates with people to the point of turning apathetics into enthusiastic voters.

🌱💪 When Rachel Reeves came to South Jesmond, she told people voting Green risked “getting a Reform councillor in here.” The result? Reform weren’t even close. But the Greens won. 🚀

Robert Jenrick, the Tory Shadow Justice Secretary and former Home Office Minister, joining protesters outside an asylum hotel is one of the most disgusting acts by a frontline British politician in living memory.

Wow, this is really powerful and resonates just as much today as it did then.

Every day this Summer has been a record of how Nigel Farage already runs the country. An endless cycle of hate & racism. One day boat arrivals, the next releasing ethnicity data for crimes, so we can know whether to riot if they’re brown or shrug if they’re white. Back to the 70s🤦‍♀️ #r4today

Good for Salah, shame on UEFA

Feels like the Green Left are taking a much needed collective breath. What’s going on? And what the fk happens next? I sat down with the brilliant Mark Steel to find out. Catch up here 👇🏼 pod.link/1573424189
