Shrewsbury, out here showing that not everyone believes that immigration is bad, or the cause of many people's problems. I truly hope Green party membership here surges after #BBCQT We need a viable alternative to vote for next election.

After pointing out that she's an immigrant Joanna Lumley asks why we don't fix the problems that create asylum seekers and address climate change

#BBCQT Always bring the receipts.

1/🧵 In the Prevention of Future Deaths report concerning the death of Leia Sampson-Grimbly, the Senior Coroner required Wes Streeting’s DHSC to set out the concrete steps it would take to reduce waiting lists at gender clinics w/ a timetable for action. The DHSC should have responded last month.

Any comment Wes Streeting? Or will you call the coroner a liar as well?

It cannot be made clearer. If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

🧵🚨 The UK’s independent scientific bodies are highly vulnerable to politicisation - over the past 5 months I've been working with @martinmckee.bsky.social to map out their vulnerabilities and it's not good news. Today our report is published! www.ucl.ac.uk/policy-lab/n... 1/11

Ughhhh, why is this stuff coming in everywhere 🤬 (I'd filled it out online and it was just a male/female tick box) Sorry, but it's 30 years since transition, I'm not outing myself like that

Govt promised to help Palestinians get to UK to study- but I'm in touch with 7 young Palestinians with scholarships at @bristoluni.bsky.social who are trapped in Gaza because the Home Office isn't doing what was promised Shocking neglect putting lives at risk www.aljazeera.com/opinions/202...

✨ The Excluded Voices 2025 report is here! We’ve updated last year’s findings on children’s books (ages 1–9) by British creators from marginalised communities — showing where progress is happening & where it’s still not. https://ow.ly/G5Hq50X8fph #IBCExcludedVoicesReport

Just in case you are curious - and my God you should be - about the dude Wes Streeting and others are handing loads of public data contracts to. 👇

Look, I'm not a praying type of person, but we're all sending St Dolly some mojo/juju/whatnot, right?

A transphobic pressure group is trying to ban trans women from Hampstead women’s pond – it's time to fight back https://goodlawproject.org/petition/keep-hampstead-womens-pond-inclusive

Because of the unforgivably appalling decisions of the Charity Commission, these hate groups, Sex Matters and LGB Alliance, are funded from your taxes.

Dropped today! My cover for the new SMILE series from @idwpublishing.com So excited to be a small part of this & to see the franchise take on new life from the amazing @hannahrosemay.bsky.social, Miriana Puglia, @dearbhlala.bsky.social & @heatherantos.bsky.social 🩸 Look for it FEBRUARY 2026

We always knew that Labour cares about little else other than keeping private developers happy. But here's proof showing off to JP Morgan despite destruction of some of the "rarest creatures in our country." Let's make that description Labour votes. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Do you like seeing our cats' antics? Shropshire Cat Rescue is where a few of ours have come from. They're genuinely an amazing charity that care deeply about the cats in their care. If you can't afford to donate, please do share. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The NHS and social care would cease to function under UK govt’s new rules on foreign staff. Workers will have to wait – from 5 to 10 years – before they can apply for indefinite leave to remain, claim any benefit, childcare, or housing support, despite paying taxes Govt appeasing Reform.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

Motorists using Shropshire Council car parks and on-street parking bays are set for a price increase from 3 November 2025.

Something tells me she is telling another porky. Especially when she says, she thinks she has all his books, except the last one. When you have a favourite author, I assure you, there's no 'thinks' about it. You know!

Do the Conservatives even have 2,000 people at their conference? Genuine question because the little I've seen, it looks empty. 🤔

I'm not surprised there is confusion and frustration. On the one hand, they've been warning us about the new strains of Covid, and then on the other hand they've removed a large swathe of the population from being eligible for the jab.

But at least Ofcom's going after the real troublemakers... right? Right?? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Jenrick could have visited Handsworth to listen to residents – he chose to pass through and make a judgement based on the colour of their skin. Instead of getting to know our nation of neighbours, he chose racism. The Tories, Reform and Labour want to divide us. The Greens say enough is enough.

Hear ye hear ye a message of hope and inspiration from our courageous leader in exile, Link. May all his loyal followers take heart!

It's not coincidental that a white dude can be a transphobic piece of shit over and over again (JS) and maintain his social media platform but a Black man makes one questionable joke about a white dude who called for the euthanasia of queer people being killed and the Black dude gets full nuked.

I said that @greenparty.org.uk membership is rising by 1000 new people a day. I was wrong. Yesterday we welcomed 2000 new people. We now have 88,000 members! 🎉 Join.greenparty.org.uk

Everyone should go buy trans books before I get disappeared for bringing up the Trust and Safety gooning incident.

BBC accused of 'extraordinary' anti-Green bias after party say the Laura Kuenssberg Show scrapped a promised interview with @zackpolanski.bsky.social on Sunday. Green sources say the show also refused to interview Polanski after he was elected as leader last month bylinetimes.com/2025/10/06/b...

🚀 @greenparty.org.uk has grown from 58,000 members in December to 86,000 today. Six years ago, consistently polling around 2%. Now, above 10%. Green councillors leapt from fewer than 200 to nearly 900. Green MPs from one to four. This is the beginning. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

More than 70,000 people complained over GB News’s use of a hateful, homophobic trope. Now the regulator has finally acted and declared the channel in breach. https://goodlawproject.org/update/ofcom-finds-gb-news-in-breach-of-code/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=social_media

I'm Jewish. I'm also Mancunian. Every other national party leader was interviewed by Laura Kunesberg during their conference. Maybe the BBC thought as someone who also supports Palestine - I had nothing to say? Let's keep growing: join.greenparty.org.uk

1) This is such a bloody brilliant interview. The last few minutes especially got me so fired up! 2) Appreciate all the love! 3) Sending the love right back. Give our brilliant deputies @rachelmillward.bsky.social and @mothinali.bsky.social a follow!) youtu.be/eohI6SRMvkE?...

"Institutional racism needs to be met head on with action to change legislation and reset hearts and minds..." Chair of Global Majority Greens @amanda-spoke.bsky.social addresses Green Party conference.

Wish I could say I was shocked, but here's the Labour government constraining the right to peaceful protest again... 'You can protest but only according to our rules. The rules are: you're not allowed to use any of the tactics that make protest effective.'

🟩 Green Party Conference 🟩 🗳️ ✨ Reforming Trans Healthcare (a Trans positive motion) ✨ ✅ Unanimously passed by @greenparty.org.uk members ✅ Every speaker in support ✅ Every vote in favour The Green Party once again showing what true solidarity looks like #GPC25 #TransRights

Every time you use stupid ChatGPT, a thing that I once saw get a long multiplication sum wrong, it uses ten times as much electricity as searching the same thing on Google and the server cooling systems mean each use consumes half a litre of water.

‘Gender critical’ bigots have set themselves up outside the Green Party Conference to harass trans-inclusive people arriving at conference. They’re presenting themselves as poor put-upon women “being silenced” while aggressively lobbying for trans-exclusion! 🤮
