Horrific reality: @greenparty.org.uk has long been calling for ALL arms exports to Israel to be stopped. #HumanRights #RuleofLaw www.channel4.com/news/factche...

Keir Starmer barely mentioned the #ClimateCrisis in his conference speech. The biggest challenge our world faces, ignored for flag-waving and empty platitudes. Labour would rather ape Reform on migration than do what is needed on climate change. #LabourPartyConference

Road deaths are falling (good) but are still monstrously high (unacceptable): there were four deaths a day on UK roads in 2024. This is avoidable - we need political willpower to get there. #VisionZero www.gov.uk/government/s...

Congrats to the neighbours in Woodhouse Park.

"Polanski is adamant that Labour no longer deserves to be thought of as progressive. "The Labour Party is so dead and gone in terms of being a progressive force. You don’t need to be in the Labour Party: @greenparty.org.uk time is now.” www.newstatesman.com/politics/lab...

Today's the day! 🗳️ Hopefully by tomorrow morning Zoe will be our newest @greenparty.org.uk councillor! 🤞 💚Great team out, sunshine and blue skies, positive vibes on the doorsteps! Shoutout to all those who travelled - some from really far away - to be here. 🛤️ @mcrgreenparty.bsky.social

Busy evening with community groups from across the area at Altrincham Town Hall tonight. Huge turnout - but they'd all gone to the next room when I took the only photo of the night! 🤦‍♀️ Discussing culture in Trafford: What's on? 🗓️ Who's not in the room? 🤔 Where next? 🤩

Another great day in Woodhouse Park. Anyone near Manchester come and join us tomorrow to elect Zoe Marlow! 🗳️🗳️🗳️ @mcrgreenparty.bsky.social

How do we fix this mess?

Good news for residents, bad news for potholes!

Since when were the far right genuinely worried about the welfare of women and girls? I've signed this petition against their weaponising VAWG for their xenophobic agenda. You can too: actionnetwork.org/petitions/e8...

"We're going to take the fight to power and wealth, and we're going to turn this country around." New Green Party Leader @zackpolanski.bsky.social speaks to Sky News about how you can help our growing movement. Join us today: join.greenparty.org.uk?utm_source=s...

This should be headline news - the implications are horrifying …

Great video from @compinpolitics.bsky.social on why compassion is fierce. Feels like this is very important work in today's world. www.compassioninpolitics.com/compassion_i...

So good to be at the opening of Move Altrincham, looking forward to trying it out! altrincham.todaynews.co.uk/sport-and-le...

Balanced & thoughtful coverage. The real question is how best to build on the trust & broad appeal that have driven our recent unprecedented electoral success. These have been hard-won & should never be taken for granted. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Important article from @trillingual.bsky.social that shows that the way we are treating people arguing asylum in this country is out of line with many of our neighbours. There chance to work, quicker processing, and a less hostile tone from government could change the narrative.

"No other party can sell radical, progressive policies to such a wide range of voters as we can, but we’ll only continue to do this if keep our distinctive Green identity" Another useful take on the leadership election from Cllr George Williams. bright-green.org/2025/08/08/i...

Thanks @geraldinecoggins.bsky.social it’s good that we have such a great competition for the leadership of the party, it shows people we are something worth fighting for, let’s make our choices wisely #TogetherWeWin

Great article from experienced Council Leader and CEO @zoenicholson.bsky.social on why Ellie and Adrian are the strategic choice. ▶️'let's be clear: this is not about abandoning what works. It’s about building on it.'◀️ bright-green.org/2025/08/01/e...

Huge congrats to Altrincham BID - 89% is a fantastic endorsement!

Happy birthday to Altrincham's Counselling and Family Centre. Lovely to see so many people celebrating the important work you do today. @cfc1.bsky.social @mikeymagnetic.bsky.social

Sun was splitting the letterboxes as knocking in Altrincham this morning with @mikeymagnetic.bsky.social

With my fellow Green councillor @geraldinecoggins.bsky.social rounding off the school year at Trafford College catching up with some of the people who've been supporting students throughout the year 💚 @traffordgreenparty.bsky.social

Reading memoirs, I've been struck by how much time (some) PMs put into preparing for PMQs. Is this the best way to hold our leaders to account? www.compassioninpolitics.com/people_over_...

Brief trip to Liverpool this morning for the LGA Independent AGM and the General Assembly. Congrats to Hannah Dalton, @cllrandrewcooper.bsky.social and @cllrjohnnydenis.bsky.social Many thanks to Marianne Overton for all her work. Caught to with @douglasjohnson.bsky.social and some other Greens too!

Well done @elliechowns.bsky.social!

showyourstripes.info/l/europe/uni... Bit late to #ShowYourStripes but here's Manchester from 1850 to today.

In Westminster today with @emilylincobrien.bsky.social with our LGA hats on for a meeting with the Minister for Employment. Discussed the role of councils in shaping and implementing the government's plans for jobs and skills.

@elliechowns.bsky.social gets it spot on here: "... building a broad coalition of voters – reaching out well beyond our traditional base, not just preaching to the choir." This is what the Green Party needs to do and Ellie and @adrianramsay.bsky.social are the experts. #TogetherWeWin

"... building a broad coalition of voters – reaching out well beyond our traditional base, not just preaching to the choir. And that’s exactly what Adrian and I know how to do." #TogetherWeWin This is why I'm voting for @elliechowns.bsky.social and @adrianramsay.bsky.social

Great day in Bradford last week with our work experience student, Adam for the @local.gov.uk City Regions Board. So much going on for the City of Culture year, and a chance to catch up with @greenmattbfd.bsky.social @bradford2025.co.uk

Perfect leafleting weather

Busy week with our work experience student, Adam. Seeing the sights of the town hall today and preparing for council committees.

Really good to be at Trafford College with @geraldinecoggins.bsky.social yesterday to hear how much work they are doing with community groups, to benefit both students who come here but the wider residents around the colleges. Particularly love their work with Trafford Domestic Abuse Service...

As one of the signatories of this letter, I literally winced out loud when I heard Keir Starmer say those words. The role of our Prime Minister must be to unite our communities, not further divide them.

I'm voting for @elliechowns.bsky.social and @adrianramsay.bsky.social in the Green Party leadership election. They're a team of proven election winners who can connect a really wide range of people. #TogetherWeWin
