NHS staff ARE the NHS! A message of solidarity with the strikers from @zoegarbett.bsky.social

Hackney Green Party is horrified by reports of massacres in el-Fasher, Sudan, following its capture by the Rapid Support Force (RSF) - a group accused by the UN of mass atrocities in Darfur. Our hearts go out to everyone affected.

Hackney Green Party stands in solidarity with everyone affected by Hurricane Melissa, which has brought devastation to Jamaica, Haiti, the Dominican Republic and Cuba.

Tomorrow I'll be on Laura Kuenssberg. Will I be able to say "I can announce the Green Party have just overtaken the Tories in members!"? It's tantalisingly close to happening! Join.greenparty.org.uk

A new week - and a new huge milestone! @greenparty.org.uk now have 100,000 members!!! We are absolutely on track to next overtake the Tories - let's make hope normal again! Join.greenparty.org.uk

Great to hang out with @carladenyer.bsky.social and @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social folk at the @greenparty.org.uk conference in Bournemouth this weekend Such a great atmosphere; there’s huge confidence within the Greens at the moment.

I’m now a councillor in Shetland but my political roots are with @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social. One conference highlight was meeting Dylan Law who’s standing to be Hackney’s next Deputy Mayor. I spent so many years campaigning in Hackney; meeting talented folk like Dylan makes it all worthwhile!

Last Friday, the Cambridge Young Greens were delighted to welcome Dylan Law and Liam Davis from the @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social to Cambridge 💚 Dylan is running to be the next deputy mayor of Hackney; it was great to hear about their plans to reengage people with local democracy ✊

End all council ties with the genocide in Gaza. @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social & Hackney Independent Socialists

So proud that the Hackney Independent Socialist Group are backing me to be the next Mayor of Hackney. Together, we are building a new kind of politics. Be part of it. Donate to our campaign: www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/hackney-ma...

We're in MyLondon! We've also raised almost £2,000 for our campaign in the last two days! Thank you to everyone that has pitched in. We're aiming for £12,500 - any amount helps, donate to turn Hackney Green: www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/hackney-ma... @itsmylondon.bsky.social

I've donated to the @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social crowdfunder for their campaign for Mayor of Hackney. Can't wait to see their campaign unfolding with @zoegarbett.bsky.social running for Hackney Mayor with @dylanmlaw.bsky.social as Deputy. Watch their video and you'll see why I'm excited...

We love Hackney, but it needs to work for all of us. Rising rents. Mouldy homes. Foodbanks. Zoë Garbett is running Mayor of Hackney to change that - with Dylan as Deputy. But we need YOU. 💰Donate: www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/hackney-ma... 📲Share with your friends: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7f4j...

A “worst-case scenario” famine is unfolding in Gaza according to experts. The World Food Programme says Gaza needs to be flooded with 'large-scale food aid' to “prevent mass starvation”. Now is the time for the UK government, and others, to ACT. There is no more time to waste.

A decent home should be the baseline, not the exception. No one should be worried about eviction just for asking for a working boiler or a mould-free home. Landlord licensing is an essential tool to hold landlords to a higher standard. Hackney - have your say 👇 1/ 🧵

This evening your Green councillrs are at #Hackney Full Council meeting. @zoegarbett.bsky.social pushed the Mayor on her slow response to action on genocide in Gaza and asked her to condemn the DESI arms fair, coming to East London in September. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJAk...

🫠 Jon Cunliffe's review into the water sector deliberately left out the option of public ownership. 💸 The only way to stop millions of pounds being siphoned off for huge CEO salaries and shareholder dividends is to end the scam of privatised water. 🤝 Public ownership now.

AOC: "when politicians leave government, they go and work for lobbyists and that tells you everything about the coordinated interests that are in cahoots all over regardless of party."

The proscription of Palestine Action is absurd in the face of this government’s straightforward collaboration with the genocide in Gaza. They are terrified of how many people are taking to the streets every week in opposition. This is exactly why we need to keep pushing.

Stop scapegoating migrants. Once responsible for housing in this country, he could have built more social homes, ended right to buy, brought in rent controls... The housing system needs a total rethink to become centred on providing truly affordable homes & not landlord profits.

We welcome the overdue judgment on the assault on Child Q. But, we are deeply concerned that the misconduct panel did not uphold the Director General’s findings of racism and adultification. Read our full statement: www.hackneygreens.org.uk/greens_call_...

Where the US leads we cannot follow. EDI- Equity, Diversity & Inclusion & the people who have the courage to stand up to racism, sexism & prejudice must be protected ✊🏿✊🏾 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j... UK ministers urged to pass bill protecting DEI whistleblowers | DEI policies | The Guardian

Being on the side of renters is good for everyone - and here is the evidence to prove it. New research from @cep-lse.bsky.social finds neighbourhoods with higher short-term renting have: - ⬆️ feelings of loneliness; - ⬇️ neighbourhood quality; - ⬇️ charitable organisations. 1/3 🧵

I absolutely love all the summer street parties - today was Dalston Garden (formerly known as Rhodes) Estate's big lunch. Joined by Dylan Law @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social DJ. BBQ. Table tennis. Great fun. So important for communities to have access to halls & spaces so we can come together 💚

Affordability has lost all meaning when social rent is lumped together with shared ownership & London Living Rent. Glad the Mayor agrees with me, it’s time we put social housing front and centre, not buried under the vague banner of “genuinely affordable”

We need a maximum temperature limit for workers! Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is updating it's guidance on safe working temperatures. The guidance includes a minimum temperature, but not maximum temperature. Sign TUC's petition www.megaphone.org.uk/petitions/we...

When… 1 in 5 people on UC and disability benefits used a food bank last month. The Disability price tag is £1,095 a month. The basic rates of UC don’t cover essentials. A #WealthTax could address our deeply unequal society. We must do better than this Bill. #TakingThePIP

Barclays holds over £2bil in shares, and provides £6.1bil in loans to companies whose weapons and tech are used by Israel in the Palestinian genocide. @greenbenali.bsky.social addresses Islington Palestine Solidarity Campaign’s protest to push Islington council to boycott Barclays.

Hackney Greens welcome the long overdue judgment on the assault on #ChildQ in 2020, an incident that continues to cast a long shadow over our borough and our nation. The dismissal of two Metropolitan Police officers for gross misconduct, is a significant step. However, this does not go far enough.

The Mayor of London's drug commission put in new rule so the police should not stop & search based on the smell of cannabis alone. Is it new? Will it make a difference?

"We need to tax better." Green councillor @nickhartleygreen.bsky.social‬ on why we need to tax the super-rich properly to help fund our NHS and restore our communities.

Why do housing developers feel they can under deliver affordable homes in Hackney time and time again? www.hackneycitizen.co.uk/2025/06/11/k...

Our Labour run @hackneycouncil.bsky.social enables developers to get away with it. We need more @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social councillors to hold them to account at the least and make serious changes to the way housing is developed at best - namely restricting new developments to council homes🌟💚

This Tuesday join loads of new Hackney Green Party members at our new members event. Find out how we can turn Hackney Green as part of a mission to make our community and the country a fairer, healthier and hopeful place. RSVP: www.hackneygreens.org.uk/welcome_to_o...

💚 Today we remember the victims of Grenfell Tower fire eight years on and reaffirm our commitment to continue campaigning for safe housing for all.

Bad for people and planet. The Tories really have gone off the deep end

Thanks respectively to Morgan McSweeney and the hard work of the members of @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social, there's less than 10% between Labour and the Green Party in the parliamentary seat of Hackney North and Stoke Newington. - That's another @greenparty.org.uk MP in the offing.

Last year, Green Cllrs visited @hackneyfoodbank.bsky.social & learned more about their amazing work. Please support their incredible efforts. Their CEO said: “In the 13-year history of our charity, things have never been as tough as they are now." www.hackney.foodbank.org.uk/news/food-po...
