Statements that have now come to light from a handful of @TheGreenParty candidates are totally unacceptable & require immediate action. There’s no place for anti-semitism or any hate speech in the party. This is a society-wide problem & needs to be rooted out wherever it’s found

Reform, Labour and the Tories all take money from oil & gas giants and private healthcare interests. That tells you who they’re really working for. The Green Party doesn’t take that money. We answer to you - and to the future of our planet. Vote Green on Thursday. 💚

"We don’t fully know what is driving the rising demand for #mentalhealth services" Well Wes, suggest you look to poverty and inequality, the cost-of-living crisis, rigid discipline in schools forced to become #ExamFactories, #ClimateEmergency... www.independent.co.uk/voices/nhs-m...

The Green Party rejects antisemitism and all forms of racism. We stand in solidarity with the British Jewish community today and always 💚

Today the new Renters’ Rights Act comes into force. This is a big step forward. But without rent controls a huge number of private renters will continue to be priced out of their homes by spiralling rents. I will never stop fighting for secure and affordable housing for all 🧵...

You know what to do folks.

I voted Green today in Trafford. Have you sent your postal vote off yet? #VoteGreen

Paris urban biking investment helps cut pollution in half: “Between 2005 and 2024, levels of nitrogen dioxide and fine particulate matter — 2 of the most harmful pollutants to human health — have been slashed by 50% and 55%, respectively.” Via @momentummag.bsky.social momentummag.com/paris-proves...

"A bicycle needs no fuel. It requires no oil refinery, no pipeline, no tanker route through a contested strait. A worker who cycles to the office has removed themselves entirely from the chain of geopolitical dependency that currently makes Ireland vulnerable." www-tinyurl.com/1b95e30a

Does the Express know I'm taken?

No surprise "Greenwashing was rampant in the sustainability reports of the world's largest meat and dairy companies" #FactoryFarming - one more #CarbonBubble phys.org/news/2026-04...

Big oil saw profits of $30m every hour in the first month of the Iran war. All while households face rising bills and insecurity. I wrote for @lbc.co.uk on why govt must stop big oil cashing in on conflict and invest in a cheaper future for all 👇 🧵... www.lbc.co.uk/article/cost...

It is now clear the Greens are directly challenging Reform. People are fed up with the status quo and want change but Farage is offering them old Tory solutions and scapegoats the vulnerable. The Greens have a real plan to lower bills, protect the NHS & cap extortionate rents.

We’ve seen a small step forward - allowing some asylum-seeking doctors to work after 12 months. But in a country facing staff shortages, why are we making people wait at all? Engineers, researchers, carers - everyone has something to offer.

More cruelty from Labour today, who will send riot police to stop migrants in small boats These are human beings fleeing war and persecution If govt really wants to end dangerous channel crossings, they must open safe and managed routes to the UK www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Sunny day in Altrincham for delivering these to re-elect my long-time colleague @DanJerrome onto Trafford Council on May 7th.

This doesn't surprise me at all. It is a daily occurrence here in Manchester. A road system that lets drivers choose how close they go to people on bikes is not a safe system.

Good news on Earth Day: 99% of growth in global electricity demand last year was met by solar and wind. We'll keep fighting the vested interests of the fossil fuel industry and their efforts to spread climate denial to protect their profits. For people and planet.

I spoke this evening at a rally outside Dáil Éireann supporting our Earth Day motion; demanding the Government recommit to its 2030 climate targets, to cease its legislative efforts undermining the Climate Act and to properly fund Ireland's Nature Restoration Plan.

Juno enjoyed campaigning in Old Trafford today. #CarryShitOlympics #CargoBike #OldTrafford

The headteacher of the grammar school round the corner from our house was killed last night in a road traffic accident. I’ve just found out he was killed while cycling home from work and feel absolutely sick. The whole neighbourhood and local community is devastated.

Meet Dan, another one of our amazing candidates 💚 Dan is standing for local council in Stretford & Humphrey Park. Dan is a listener and a grafter and an all round legend so you can be sure he’ll work hard for the residents of Stretford & Humphrey Park 💯 Vote Dan on May 7th 🗳️

Saw these protests on O'Connell St yesterday. Surely Ireland (and the rest of the world) will see a surge in pv?🔆doesn't rely on ports, refineries or narrow sea passages. Ireland's protests show that ff dependence leaves usat the mercy of national and local issues 🚜not just geopolitics.

Another on my why-is-no-one&talking-about-this list! Most people think that money councils set aside for children's social care is spent on...children's social care? But lots of it is going to profiteering venture capitalists! @greenparty.org.uk #WhyIsNoOneTalkingAboutThis

Meet Aaron Fradley, our outstanding candidate for Gorse Hill & Cornbrook 💚 Aaron lives in the community and cares about the area he’s standing to represent. He’ll speak up for the residents of Gorse Hill & Cornbrook! 🙌 Vote Aaron on May 7th 🗳️

Meet Teddy Somers, our incredible candidate for Sale Central 💚 Teddy, like us, wants to see more young voices in politics. We know Teddy would make a great, hard-working councillor for Sale! 👏 Less than 5 weeks to go until local elections. Vote Teddy on May 7th! 🗳️

“There is work to do as a society to reframe how we think about driving. Many drivers see speed limits, cameras and enforcement as personal inconveniences. We must communicate the concept that driving is a responsibility, not an entitlement” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Meet the amazing, Diane Plunkett, our Green Party candidate for Ashton upon Mersey 💚 Diane does so many things in the community that it was impossible to fit them all on this tiny white square! We know Diane would make an incredible Councillor 👏 Vote Diane on May 7th! 🗳️

Saving lives? Or removing danger? We don’t run 'electricity safety' campaigns. We fix the system. #SeeYourStreetDifferently #LiveStreetSmart #RoadSafety

Thank you so much to everyone who's shared their mobility aid stories and talked about what works for you - and what isn't working yet. Together, we'll keep working for better mobility options for all Disabled people. #EveryJourneyEveryone

Trans Day of Visibility. Trans people are our neighbors. Trans people are not dangerous. Today, and every day, we see you. You are loved, you belong 💛

Pleased to support these folks with a little video on the way to the library today. Why is it ok to treat foxes one way and dogs another?

Fair play from the Mail. I said what I said.

Two things we like doing: 💚 Promoting hope over hate 🕺 Having a good time with friends If this sounds like you too, drop in to our social on the 2nd 👋

The Green Party are on the cusp of being the leading political party in the polls. Felt pretty emotional to get this reception from thousands of educators and support staff. Hope is here. It's all of us. And the tide is turning - let's do this! 💚 Join.greenparty.org.uk

Now's a great time: join.greenparty.org.uk

My colleague @mikeymagnetic.bsky.social and the changes we need to cut death and serious injury on our roads in Trafford. @20isplenty.bsky.social

It's “an absolute scandal that having a bit more money gets you not just a nicer high street – it gets you a longer life expectancy, it gets you cleaner air." We need more MPs advocating for #CleanAir and addressing the inequalities in people's exposure to pollution across communities.

Greens pile pressure on Ed Miliband to end 'rigged energy system' news.sky.com/story/greens...

Labour have been smearing the Greens on our evidenced-based approach to drugs. If the PM won’t listen to us, and he won’t listen to the experts, will he listen to the families at @anyoneschild.bsky.social, who have lost loved ones under the UK’s current negligent drug policies?

“We cannot forgive Labour for carrying on Conservative austerity” - Councillor @geraldinecoggins.bsky.social on the Trafford budget crisis 💬 Hit the link for the full article 👉 www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater...

“We are not a poor country and there are bold solutions available”

“Why are Britain’s 50 richest families wealthier than half the population combined?” 💰 - Councillor @geraldinecoggins.bsky.social

This was the message of our Green Party motion to Trafford Council last week. Sadly watered down by Labour. :(

We tracked down the superyacht owned by the world’s sixth richest man. Larry Ellison won’t like what we did to it 🛥️🏴‍☠️

"It is outrageous that people will be buying homes that are expensively heated with gas when we have perfectly good technology – heat pumps – that can be installed instead." My comments @theguardian.com new homes in the UK still using gas heating. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

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

Literally the content of my motion to council this week. Watered down by Labour of course. democratic.trafford.gov.uk/mgAi.aspx?ID...
