2025 is set to be the UK's hottest since records began. Scientists are clear that changes to our climate are unprecedented and the result of burning fossil fuels. The government's climate policies must be led by the science, not by climate deniers and their friends from the fossil-fuel lobby.

Matthew Bowles works for the IEA. Funded by the fossil fuel industry, gambling and tobacco. Times up. Merry Christmas! Join.greenparty.org.uk

The language being used for people seeking refuge abroad is unacceptable. Asylum seekers must be allowed to work, not demonised. Starmer’s decision to move people in need to military sites in the new year is unacceptable.

"These women in Calais are in crisis, but they are not a crisis. Each is a person. And how we treat them tells us everything about the kind of country we are choosing to be." @rachelmillward.bsky.social reflects on meeting migrant women in Calais and the alternative choices we could make in 2026.

"These women in Calais are in crisis, but they are not a crisis. Each is a person. And how we treat them tells us everything about the kind of country we are choosing to be." Read the rest here 👇 bylinetimes.com/2025/12/18/i... @bylinetimes.bsky.social @greenparty.org.uk @care4calais.org

Israel's genocide in Gaza has killed over 70,000 Palestinians and destroyed or damaged over 90% of homes. Contractors in the US are now reportedly vying for contracts to rebuild the strip. Gaza’s future must be decided by Palestinians. Not by foreign powers or corporate greed.

"Poverty is a political choice, and we could end it- it is up to us" Former Mayor of North of Tyne Combined Authority @jamiedriscoll.bsky.social explains why he joined the Green Party, and the importance of effective messaging in combatting Reform.

"They'll come..." Over 8,000 of you have helped us raise an incredible £250,000 in just three weeks 🤯 It will take every one of us to beat Reform and their multimillionaire mates and billionaire backers. Hope is here. Be part of it. Donate today ⤵️

This is obscene. Why can't other politicians say that? The 25 richest families are collectively $358.7 billion richer than a year ago, with a combined fortune totaling $2.9 trillion.

Tomorrow the Government is expected to announce its long-awaited strategy for tackling violence against women and girls. Here's what we'll be looking for: Funding for local services Investment in prevention Extension of support to all women Measure impact to ensure plan works

🎄 We're on Day 6 of 12 Days of Democracy 🎄 Today Croydon councillor Ria Patel opens a gift and reveals another reason to support a fairer voting system. PR isn't radical. It's tried and tested. Watch to learn more!

Why Rory Stewart might need to self reflect...

Prisoner 4 Palestine Qesser Zuhrah is at imminent risk of death! I've contacted people at HMP Bronzefield They have 2 doctors with them trying to get an ambulance in to take her to hospital The prison has refused to transfer her Justice Secretary David Lammy you must step in. Show humanity

'Hope makes you brave' Former Independent Mayor of North of Tyne Combined Authority @jamiedriscoll.bsky.social on why he has joined the Green Party.

British politics is a mess. Food, energy, housing are all too expensive. Major parties are all flogging the dead horse of trickle down. So I’m joining the Green Party. Britain needs an economy that works for workers, for small businesses, and future generations. @greenparty.org.uk

Welcome to the Green Party, @jamiedriscoll.bsky.social, Former Mayor of the North of Tyne Combined Authority 💚

“We want to represent a party that believes in a radical overhaul of our systems to tackle the cost of living crisis and rising inequality.” Our five new councillors on why they left Labour to join the Green Party! 💚

Foreign influence on UK politics - let's think about US cash, as well as Russian and Chinese

Reports from @amnestyuk.bsky.social clearly show that UK-made components have been found in weapons in the awful conflict in Sudan. But this government refuses to act. Once again, the minister refused to acknowledge the reality of the situation when I confronted him yesterday.

After slashing funding for home insulation by around 25% at last month’s Budget, it is nothing short of shameful that the govt has now chosen to delay the Warm Homes Plan once again. Every week this plan is put back leaves more people languishing in cold, damp homes.

"People are recognising they need an alternative" @zackpolanski.bsky.social discusses the block defection of 5 Labour councillors to the Green Party, and how Labour's failure to address inequality is galvanising the continued Green surge.

Two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree. But soon there may be no turtle doves left. Their numbers have declined by 99% since the 1960s. That’s why I’m backing the RSPB's calls for proper, sustained funding for nature-friendly farming.

Sign my petition calling on Rachel Reeves to end tax breaks for fossil fuel companies and fund a Jobs Guarantee instead: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

Our energy security, lower bills and secure jobs depend upon clean renewable power So today I've written to Ed Miliband, calling on him to: ❌ #StopRosebank and Jackdaw oil fields ❌ End tax breaks for fossil fuel companies ✅ Fund a Jobs Guarantee for oil and gas workers …

The Green surge continues. Five more Labour councillors have joined the Green Party. A politics of hope — and in May’s local elections, it’s the Greens who will take the fight to Reform.

"If culture wars was going to fix anything we'd be absolutely thriving as a country." @zackpolanski.bsky.social outlines the differences between Reform's politics of division and the Green Party's politics of hope.

It could not be more clear that Russia poses an immediate threat to our democracy. The govt must take this threat seriously, cracking down on dirty money in politics in the upcoming Elections Bill & conducting criminal investigations into Russian interference in our elections.

Today should have been a day of celebration for Jewish communities around the world. Instead, they are mourning. As Greens we stand today, and every day, with our Jewish colleagues and friends.

It's 10 years since the Paris climate agreement. Before Paris, the world was heading for 4 degrees of warming; it’s now headed for 2.5 degrees. We must continue this progress to limit heating and reduce its impacts. Every fraction of a degree matters for the future of humanity.

Since Zack said these words on 2nd September, over 110,000 people have joined the Green Party. This is a mass movement of people who are serious about replacing Labour and taking the fight to Reform. And we're only getting started.

"The rise in support isn’t just about polls. Polls measure opinion. What we’re seeing is something deeper, a shift in political culture itself." @zackpolanski.bsky.social in the New Statesman. Real change is coming. Are you in? Join today ⤵️

Why hasn't Labour just replaced the Lords with a 2nd chamber elected by PR? Instead we have more 30 more peers nominated by Labour, Conservative and Lib Dems. A PR elected chamber would have over fifty green members based upon the 2024 election result

Solidarity with the hunger strikers. It is an egregious violation for them to be held on remand - without trial or conviction. All for protesting against a genocide. Shameful.

The World Inequality Report shows that 0.001% of the world’s population hold 3 times as much wealth as half of the world population. The 1% in the UK have almost 5 times as much wealth as 50% of the population combined. Inequality is a political choice. It's time to tax wealth.

"It's completely misleading to suggest challenges in the immigration system are anything to do with the ECHR" @elliechowns.bsky.social discusses how watering down human rights panders to far-right narratives and distracts from real solutions to issues with our migration system.

Ending section 21 gives Govt some breathing space to truly end homelessness, but its new plan falls very short. With housing benefit still frozen, more and more families will fall through the cracks when things go wrong. Housing remains a seriously disrespected human right.

This is obscene. That others in politics can’t or won’t say that this is obscene hits at the heart of the problems we face. We are the 99.999%. Tax the super rich. Join.greenparty.org.uk

"The European Convention on Human Rights safeguards all of us" @adrianramsay.bsky.social discusses the importance of the ECHR and how potential reforms threaten a range of our fundamental rights and freedoms.

🇪🇺 The Green Party is clear: we should be repairing our relationship with the EU and undoing the damage of Brexit. That's why yesterday Green MPs voted in favour of re-joining the Customs Union - as a vital first step.

Today is Human Rights Day. We reaffirm our commitment to the inalienable rights of all people to freedom, life and safety from Palestine to Congo, Haiti to Sudan, and here in the UK, amidst inadequate living standards, privacy infringements and persecution for political action.

15 years ago today the Tory & Lib Dem government tripled tuition fees. Young people, our economy and society are robbed of the learning and skills universities offer- whilst graduates face average debt of £53,000. Education should be a right, not a privilege. Scrap tuition fees.

✅ Take parcels to the Post Office ✅ Sort out Christmas presents ✅ Join the Green Party! 180,000 members and counting. Will you be the next? ⤵️

Why are Labours attacks misfiring? Because Labour support genocide. Labour protect the power & wealth of the super rich. And all they do is attack the Green Party. Help us take the actual fight to Reform: join.greenparty.org.uk

Today marks 25 years of offshore wind power: an initiative that reduced the UK’s spending on imported fuels by up to £30bn. Without wind power the country would’ve imported & burned over 20 million tonnes of gas over the last 25 years. Wind works 🌬️ For the climate and the economy.
