It's taken an awfully long time, but pleased to report that the Q10 Cycle path on Senegal Road connecting Surrey Canal Road South Bermondsey is finally back open! Thanks to everyone for their patience - here's to more convenient cycles in 2026 🚲

The Greens are polling at 17% - a milestone for the party.

We're here to build a society that works for all of us, we can't leave people behind That's why being in Lewisham was so inspiring, seeing the community come out to stand up and be counted, people from all different backgrounds, races, religions coming together united @liamshrivastava.bsky.social

Happy Hanukkah from Bradford Green Party. Our thoughts are with everyone in the Jewish community and all those affected by the awful attacks in Australia, at what should be a time of celebration and joy.

Delighted to be joined by @mothinali.bsky.social at our @lewishamgreenparty.bsky.social Mayoral campaign launch yesterday! I'm honoured and privileged to be @greenparty.org.uk candidate for Mayor of Lewisham People are tired of business as usual - it's time to bring hope back to Lewisham 💚

Another great surgery at All Saints Community centre, supporting residents in New Cross Gate 💚 Being a @lewishamgreenparty.bsky.social councillor is about showing up and advocating for the community. Can't wait to get more greens elected in May so we can really start delivering for Lewisham

Did Labour MPs ever imagine that they would be ending the first period of their first government in more than 14 years with their own Home Secretary feeling the need to publicly deny that she plans to defect to Reform?

@brendadacres.bsky.social refusal to take my complaints about the UCKG’s relationship with Lewisham Council seriously was a key factor in me leaving the Labour party to join the Greens. Reselecting Kim Powell is yet another example of her chaotic leadership. www.the-londoner.co.uk/another-coun...

So either Labour need to ask candidates to step aside for the Greens to take on Reform.... Or actually bring in a fair democratic process where everyone's votes count equally. It's time for Proportional Representation. www.thenational.scot/news/2558507...

Over 100 killed by strikes overnight, including more than 40 children, and now yet more military aggression by Israel in clear violation of the ceasefire. The UK cannot abide this - Israel cannot be permitted to act with impunity. news.sky.com/story/israel...

Thoughts with everyone affected by Hurricane Melissa in the Caribbean - absolutely devastating. Thinking of the many Lewisham residents with relatives in Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Cuba and Haiti

A packed out meeting hall of @lewishamgreenparty.bsky.social tonight 🤩 Our membership secretary announced we're currently on 2,059 members and rising 🚀 Something special is happening. Get involved at join.greenparty.org.uk 💚

Awaab's Law has now come into effect. But is @lewisham.gov.uk ready to meet it's obligations as a landlord? After a damning Housing Ombudsman report, I've written to the Cabinet Member and Director for Housing to get assurances for our residents. #awaabslaw #dampandmould

It's been over two weeks since I wrote to Mayor of Lewisham @brendadacres.bsky.social about @lewisham.gov.uk's controversial use of the Proceeds of Crime Act. Not even an acknowledgment to my request. Is this how @lewishamlabour.bsky.social treats our local businesses?

Green Party Deputy Leader, @mothinali.bsky.social, has responded ...

We are disappointed and deeply concerned that permanent, live facial recognition technology (FRT) cameras have been installed in Croydon, South London. www.metengage.co.uk/Alerts/A/332...

Residents need assurances that POCA isn't being used to generate income for @lewisham.gov.uk Criminalising migrant business owners has serious equality implications - the council needs to show it has met its obligations under the Public Sector Equality Duty www.lbc.co.uk/article/fami...

The Green surge is breaking limits! 😲 Together, we can make hope normal again! 💚

I have written to @brendadacres.bsky.social, @ese-erheriene.bsky.social and @jamesjwalsh.bsky.social regarding @lewisham.gov.uk's use of the Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA) against local businesses and its potential disproportionate impacts on migrant communities. 🔗HTML docs.google.com/document/d/1...

chuffed.org/project/1285... We are fundraising for a film to highlight #TFE, a #PredictivePolicing operation targeting vulnerable #KidsOfColour in schools. Police and profiling systems have no place in education. Surveillance isn't safeguarding. #EndThinkSurveillance 🎬

When my niece was in primary school in Lewisham, living nr the South Circular, she + many children in her class had inhalers. Their GP said they were having to prescribe inhalers to ever more children - well above the national average. The reality of air pollution is children struggling to breathe.

Disappointing but not surprising by Labour. This has happened in a London borough where these policies would directly help so many people, where child and youth services have been cut for years and also where Thames Water has cut water to houses, not repaired leaks, routinely raised prices and more.

London’s #AirPollution has dropped significantly over the last few years; thank you @london.gov.uk! BUT - at least two monitors are NOT meeting the NO2 annual average (technicalities). The #Brixton & #Lewisham monitors still show exceedances. (See image, from the London Air website).

Tonight Lewisham Labour voted ❌ Against expanding childcare for families on lowest incomes ❌ Against scrapping the 2-child benefit cap ❌ Against Nationalising Thames Water If you want a party that stands up for all, join @lewishamgreenparty.bsky.social and let's build an alternative

Lewisham Greens are bringing a Council motion to demand public ownership of Thames Water. Alongside @compassoffice.bsky.social, we're working with Councils in the Thames Water region to to make their position clear. Listen to @liamshrivastava.bsky.social talk about why he's bringing the motion here'

"My door is always open for conversations with Jeremy and Zarah, two people committed to making our country fairer who I really respect. All my energy is focused on what I can do towards that end, and that’s to keep growing @greenparty.org.uk" www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

With the growing threat of the far right, egos and historical grievances must not hold us back from the alliance we need in these tumultuous and uncertain times. My piece in @redpeppermag.bsky.social www.redpepper.org.uk/political-pa...

Great weekend campaigning in Ladywell, Telegraph Hill and New Cross Gate with @lewishamgreenparty.bsky.social Spoke to lots of frustrated Labour voters who now intend to vote green 💚 Labour has failed our communities - the Greens are here to replace them. #GetGreensElected

This next 12 months is going to be pivotal for the future of the left in the UK. It's time we build something to be proud of, together 💚

Great article on organising the left challenge from below by Lewisham Green group leader @liamshrivastava.bsky.social www.redpepper.org.uk/political-pa...

For @redpeppermag.bsky.social, I wrote about how a Green Party led from the left by @zackpolanski.bsky.social will align, not conflict with the embryonic Your Party www.redpepper.org.uk/political-pa...

I agree with Mia! "Mia Kaivanto, 18, raised concerns about data privacy. She said: "More surveillance isn't necessarily equivalent to more efficient arrests."" www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I’m so grateful for the surge of support in every corner. Thank you to my colleague @carolinerussell.bsky.social for the endorsement too! But I’m by no means complacent. Votes close at the end of the month. Remind members to vote. Let’s make this happen.
