8 more boards up in Nunhead & Queens Rd, 400 leaflets delivered in Peckham Rye, now for some doorknocking, let’s go @southwarkgp.bsky.social #VoteGreen #SayYepForShep

Rotherhithe needs change - real change. We need councillors that serve the community, and will stand up to British Land. Your Green team will work for you - and always ask the right questions 💚 Help turn Rotherhithe Green✅ www.southwarkgreenparty.org.uk

100% Zack. Get Palantir out of NHS data. We should use this incredibly valuable resource for the benefit of patients, not private company profits.

I just made a surprise appearance at the Royal Albert Hall for Earth Day. The room felt so hopeful. People so sick and tired of climate injustice - but even more driven by wanting change. Tackling the climate crisis needs all of us - and an end to Rip Off Britain. #LettersLive

Trump’s war in #Iran has shown how dependent we are on this unstable fossil system. The EU Commission’s #AccelerateEU plan must go further & include: - Windfall tax on fossil profits - Binding phase-out of oil, gas & coal - Massive investment in solar, wind & hydro More ➡️ greens.eu/accelerateEU

Ten years on from the Paris Agreement, we’ve lost precious time. But the need for action has only become clearer. Let’s rebuild that global momentum — and act now for a safer, fairer future. #ClimateAction #ParisAgreement

If you really want to see the Green Party have an extraordinary election - then you have to go out and vote. There's too many close calls where it's Labour Vs Green - time to show Starmer the door and end Rip Off Britain. greenparty.org.uk/get-involved...

Help us turn Southwark Green! www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/get-greens...

@zackpolanski.bsky.social loves Southwark. So do we! Vote for hope on 7 May! 💚 #votehope #votegreen

We need an electoral revolution. Read my full op-ed here: bestforbritain.substack.com/p/we-need-an...

James McAsh, former leader of the Labour Group and Leader-elect of Southwark Council, primary school teacher and trade unionist has joined the Green Party.

⚡2026 is a turning point. UK #climate & environmental activists face both crisis & opportunity. Fascism rises, the #climate agenda is under attack, & political representation is urgent. 🧵A longish thread on why we must unite behind @zackpolanski.bsky.social & the @greenparty.org.uk 💚

🚨 A third Labour councillor has joined Southwark Green Party. “The Green Party offers a message of real hope and change.” – Cllr Reginald Popoola Reginald will be a candidate for Rye Lane in the May election.

Great to chat to so many people in camberwell yesterday, hearing what issues matter to them- including Father Christmas himself! @southwarkgp.bsky.social #greenparty

Setting up for the market today on Camberwell green - we’ll be there until 3pm - we look forward to seeing you there!

I've spent three days in Calais & it's horrendous. People living in disgusting conditions. Our Government is spending £476m on the militarisation of the border. We must divert that money to a humanitarian response that treats people with basic dignity. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Welcome Sam!

That Greenwave keeps rolling! Welcome to @southwarkgp.bsky.social Sam! #HopeIsHere

Let's clean up Camberwell! For Green Party members and anyone else. Join our litter pick on Sunday! 🌳🌱🥤🌻🧃☘️🌲 🗓 November 30th, 2025 ⏰ 10:45am–12:45pm 📍 By the Benhill Road entrance to Brunswick Park, SE5 7RJ www.southwarkgreenparty.org.uk/litter_pick_...

Did you know you pay more fuel tax on a single car journey than a billionaire does on a private jet flight? Right now the gov is subsidising tax breaks, when they could be using that tax to generate billions for public services. Help us change this: https://bit.ly/43NAeFN

Is it fair that public transport fare payers see annual increases in ticket prices, while costs for people driving remain static?

The government has STILL not cleared out the highly partisan decision-makers imposed on the BBC by the Tories. Starmer and co are so amazingly spineless and feeble. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Clearly a sign they are being paid too much money, and not paying nearly enough tax. They need to check @seatsixtyone.bsky.social to work out how to get there by train www.ft.com/content/90f5...

Your new Green Councillor!

This is deeply disappointing from Starmer. The UK *helped design* this 'TFFF' fund, designed to stop deforestation, and supposedly 'continues to back the fund' (in theory). But now isn't putting any money into it 🤯 How embarrassing for the UK. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I have updated my official log of lobbying and policy meetings for the past three months. This should be a basic requirement for all MPs. We all need to know who those who serve us meet with, and in whose interests they act. www.sianberry.org.uk/official-mee...

Powerful questioning from my colleague @elliechowns.bsky.social, pinning the government on exactly what it needs to do - NOW - to bring about an end to the atrocities being committed in Sudan.

Today we welcomed Kath Whittam to Southwark Green Party! "We need a better way of doing our politics. The Labour Party is no longer looking after the people. The Green Party is positive, hopeful, and focused on real solutions. It's talking about how to make things better.”

News!

“People are rejecting the old party politics…but they know they don't need to go to the politics of hate and division. The politics of hope is where it's at.” Zack and Carla discuss why Bristol Cllr Al-Maghrabi, has joined the Greens and why so many others are doing the same.

The government spends £2.7 BILLION a year on TAX BREAKS for oil and gas companies Those companies pay billions to their shareholders And then lay off their workers Think that's unfair? Tell Rachel Reeves to stop propping up oil and gas companies and back workers instead…

The next step to make abortion safe & accessible in the EU is happening! On Wednesday, the FEMM Committee votes on @myvoicemychoice.bsky.social. Will they stand for safe & legal abortion in the EU, or will they let women suffer because of restrictive bans?

“People are rejecting the old party politics…but they know they don't need to go to the politics of hate and division. The politics of hope is where it's at.” Zack and Carla discuss why Bristol Cllr Al-Maghrabi has joined the Greens and why so many others are doing the same.

Can’t quite believe the Chancellor is seriously considering slashing support for home energy efficiency as a way to cut fuel bills 👀. Locking people into cold & leaky homes which will cost them more to heat & decimating the insulation industry at same time. Total madness 👇

Welcome Kath!

Does this sound like urgency on #Deforestation, #ClimateEmergency and #NatureCrisis to you? @globalwitness.org

Labour have at the last minute pulled the funding for the well needed and long planned upgrade to Peckham Rye station. Will keep the dubious accolade of busiest interchange railway station in the country with no step-free access. Will @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social be lobbying for constituents here?

Beyond the chaos and confusion of the last few days, Southwark's residents will be wondering who runs Southwark Council - our elected representatives or Labour Party regional officials? join.greenparty.org.uk

It’s time to sack Lambeth Labour. Their ‘vision’ for Lambeth is more of the same: let’s flog off our land to international developers-the very thing that has led to the massive growth in inequality over the past 25 years in our borough. lambeth.greenparty.org.uk/2025/07/07/c...

Why do controls on advertising not extend to deadly fossil fuels? It's time for a ban on high-carbon, often greenwashing ads as @carladenyer.bsky.social and I said in yesterday's debate 👇

Am sure a housing development consultant being put in charge of Southwark Council won’t be problematic at all. Not like Southwark Council have previously had form for underselling huge swaths of social housing to property developers or anything… 🤨 @shapecoalition.bsky.social @josh.politics.co.uk

Anyone know who was elected Leader of Southwark Council last night? @jamesmcash.bsky.social @neilcoyle.bsky.social @lb-southwark.bsky.social feels like something people who live in Southwark have a right to know - no? You know democracy in action and all that...

Southwark Green Party condemns the proscription of Palestine Action by the UK government as a "terrorist organisation".

Over 50 detained at Istanbul Pride on Sunday — including 6 lawyers & journalists. 3 still under arrest, 50 released with travel bans. We call on Erdoğan’s govt to drop all charges and free them now. In Istanbul and across Europe: freedom of assembly is a human right!

Those who are sick and injured or Disabled today and in the future need our solidarity, and from Greens they will get it. This rushed, shameful, cruel Bill must fall.

All four Green MPs voted against this cruel mistake of a Bill. To those who are scared and worried about what this result means, we will continue to vote against it, and stand against any proposals that seek to save money by impoverishing those already struggling to get by. Solidarity always 💚

BREAKING NEWS All five of Southwark's MPs vote IN FAVOUR of tonight's second reading of the government's welfare bill. This is despite the process descending into chaos and uncertainty as to how exactly thousands of Southwark residents will be affected.

As chair of the Environment Committee I'm releasing a cross party report into local food growing. This is ultimately an issue of inequality - and it's vital we grow towards a more resilient future. Full report below 👇🏽

I know there are many trans and non-binary people who will be feeling deeply worried today, caught in the midst of a media storm as they try to simply live their lives. Please know that I stand with you - today, tomorrow and always. My statement in response to the Supreme Court ruling today:
