Has your MP signed the Parliamentary Call for government to stage a prime-time televised emergency briefing on the threats to the UK from nature loss & climate change? We’re locked in a vicious cycle. The public kept in the dark - politicians not willing to act. www.nebriefing.org/parliamentar...

BP has more than doubled its profits as a result of the Iran war. Those already struggling with the cost of living are paying the price for Trump's warmongering while oil giants rake in even more cash. Now is the time for a permanent windfall tax and rapid shift to renewables.

Hugely important discussion with climate expert Tessa Khan. Extremely concerning to hear the Labour Government potentially backing off from their climate commitments. They'd be selling us all out for profit. m.youtube.com/watch?v=TCKt...

Drilling for more oil & gas in the North Sea won't lower bills, it won't make us more energy independent and it won't insulate us from price shocks. A Labour backslide on this would be a huge betrayal. Double down on renewables. Insulate every home. Lower bills, permanently.

Zack Polanski spoke at #NEU2026. Educators deserve a fully funded pay rise and a government that supports creativity. This is possible, we just need a government with the courage to do it! https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15692199/Polanski-talks-teacher-pay-rises-wealth-tax.html

A few of us headed to Cliftonville again this weekend to help Rob Yates with his campaign 💚💚💚

Mothin Ali’s story… 💚 youtu.be/VPsR1hfTaAA?...

The govt's ban on new oil and gas licences is just lip service for as long as it plans to introduce ‘tiebacks’. This loophole allows *new* drilling, by connecting new sites to existing ones. This is indefensible when every drop of oil or gas burned puts our future further at risk.

This pretty much sums up why I joined the Green Party ... that was in 2010! 😥🌍

Does anybody know how many members the #GreenParty has now? I haven't heard! 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

In the search for something to attack us with, our detractors say we have shifted on policy. This is not true, we started as the People Party in 1972, we combine environmentalism with left wing economic policies. We are the alternative to division, greed & hate join.greenparty.org.uk 💚🫶🏻

This is a deeply dangerous escalation by Starmer, taking us further into an illegal & unpopular war, and making us a target. When was the vote in parliament??

💩 Filthy rivers. 💰 Fat cat bonuses. 🔵 Yet Bradford Tories are still happy with water privatisation. 🟢 Only the Green Party will bring water back into public hands: for people, not profit.

"The women who changed the system so I could be here" @greenpartyhan.bsky.social pays homage to women who fought for change in her maiden speech during the International Women's Day debate.

Tuesday 17th March. County Hall, Maidstone. 8am. Day 4 of strike action - STLS members are fighting to revive a basic job description and decent policies, so they can continue to support Kent’s most vulnerable learners.

In 2027/28 will see an end to Dover District & Kent County Councils. We’ll be part of a larger unitary council area. The government is yet to decide on the boundaries. We can have our say if we prefer an East Kent Council 3 or 5 x the size of DDC. Deadline is 2 wks. buff.ly/JnoyqoP

Today the mayor and mayoress attended the groundbreaking for a new 83 bed nursing home in Deal on the site of the old nunnery off Rectory Road, a serene, tucked away site surrounded by trees. The plans look amazing and there is a strong commitment to becoming part of the community.

Deal’s Mayoress and Mayor attended the breaking ground ceremony at the former Tides - site of the new leisure centre for Deal. Very exciting stuff for our local community. Mayoress Christine said “It was great to hear from the team about the sustainability features too!”
