Hard to think of a more deeply damaging start to Burnham’s premiership than giving green light to new oil & gas in N. Sea, if true. It won’t lower bills or lead to greater energy security but will drive an even hotter planet. What a terrible signal to give to rest of the world #ClimateVandalism

Nigel Farage is a grifter. He always has been and he's continuing to grift. He knew he was heading towards a byelection anyway so has pulled the trigger early. The people Vs the establishment?! Reform are literally part of the establishment.

Amazing news! Cervical cancer deaths of 20-24 year olds in England down to ZERO thanks to a vaccine. BBC News - Risk of dying from cervical cancer before 30 'close to zero' after HPV vaccine rollout - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... #VaccinesWork

🚨| New RCN analysis shows demand for community mental health services has grown more than twice as fast as the nursing workforce. Now, half of community mental health nurses say patients are now frequently coming to harm because of overwhelming caseloads. (1/3)

So much this 👇 Car dependency traps people in a promise of freedom and independence that is in reality being stuck in growing congestion while paying off huge car loans. Imagine if a fraction of spending on cars was invested in affordable, efficient and accessible public transport?

I work in the NHS with many highly valued colleagues from overseas. Every day they contribute to the wellbeing and safety of our patients and communities. If you have ever worked with, or received care from Internationally Educated Nursing Staff, please raise your voice now using the link below.

Israel and the US have launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on a sovereign nation during ongoing diplomatic negotiations. We should not allow the UK to be dragged into another American war. We must do everything possible to stop this and uphold peace in the region.

US and Israeli strikes on Iran are hugely dangerous: irresponsible, provocative and illegal. Starmer must call out these so-called ‘allies’ - who are acting as rogue states - and use all UK levers to uphold international law.

Pleased to see the jury make this decision. We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries. People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Really great to see Zack Polanski talking about a public health approach to drugs on Kuenssberg this morning. The war on drugs failed a long time ago, it’s time to help people who need it, not criminalise them.

Many of my colleagues @sheffielducu.bsky.social are 'locked out' for refusing to replace teaching missed during strike. Deductions have already been taken for that action. If you have any cash spare, donations gratefully received so that branch can support members. gofund.me/9b971e2a8

"If we want to fix the NHS for patients in the future, we need to ensure that doctors we have trained are able to get jobs, while at the same time we keep the ones we do have by valuing them properly." @bma.org.uk deputy chair @redrunswick.bsky.social speaks about resident doctor strike action.

Some people get hung up on the phrase “pregnant people” But it’s simple: cis women and girls, Trans men and boys, and Nonbinary people can all get pregnant That’s why we use “pregnant people” when fighting for abortion rights We’re advocating for everyone who needs care 👇🏼

Zack Polanski made a good point on Peston last night that Reform, Conservative, Labour want you to ignore. If you want to reduce immigration you must increase skills training in the UK. You don't just cutoff immigration.

Tackling the cost of living crisis goes hand in hand with tackling the climate crisis. We need food security, insulated homes, and cheap renewable energy.

The Green Party now has 124,000 members, more than the Conservative Party.

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

Here's a story that shouldn't have to exist. Senior MPs are spouting so many lies about newcomers to this country that we need long stories like this to correct them Find out the truth about some of the numbers you might have heard here:👇 www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Shame on you @telegraphnews.bsky.social for giving infamous UK anti-vaxer Aseem Malhotra a platform on the very day we learn a child has died of measles in Liverpool. You do understand, don’t you, that it’s exactly this kind of scaremongering that leaves parents so anxious & afraid? Shame on you.

UK welfare spending "too expensive". Also UK Welfare spending, almost the lowest in Europe.

Please sign this petition to ask the government to do more to improve the lives of people with Parkinson's though improved funding and implementation of the "Parky Charter". petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

Some "Gender Critical" activists tried to sue people protesting against them screening an anti trans hate film. They LOST The judgement is crazy to read as they talk about me a lot in it! The GCs tried to argue that me giving a talk about all the hate I received from GCs made them feel...

The @freedomflotilla.bsky.social ship 'Madleen' heading for Gaza has been intercepted by Israel in international waters. We must see the immediate and unconditional release of all Madleen crew members. And we desperately need immediate and unimpeded entry of humanitarian aid to Gaza.🇵🇸

14 years of Tory austerity. Labour doubling down. It's time for different choices. #BackZack

Release the Madleen crew immediately, end Israel's genocide now! Palestine Coalition statement on Israel's illigal hijacking of the #MadleenToGaza #FreePalestine #StopArmingIsrael #EndTheGenocide

Dear Labour: the public want more social housing, NOT a blank cheque for developers to build more luxury homes that only the richest can afford.

Bottom trawling tears up fragile seabed habitats & harms the life that depends on them. Today’s UK Government decision to ban it in 40+ Marine Protected Areas offers hope: a chance to let our seas recover & life return. 🌊 Let's see Marine Protected Areas live up to their name.

Oil and gas giants have made huge profits for decades while driving the climate crisis. I'm backing the @makepolluterspay.bsky.social campaign to make the biggest polluters contribute their fair share towards tackling the crisis and protecting our communities and economy.

Today marks the start of National Blood Donor Week 🩸 The NHS continues to face its worst ever shortage of blood donors. If you have been thinking about giving blood but putting it off, now is the time. Sign up today and book an appointment: blood.co.uk

Remember: it’s not endorsements that count - it’s votes. If you want to stand with all the Green councillors & members who’ll be voting for me this summer, join us at join.greenparty.org.uk. Our movement is growing! 💚

The government came to power promising to end the "moral scar" of foodbank use. Analysis out today shows that plans to slash disability benefits could force 440,000 people into relying on one.

@greenparty.org.uk's @sianberry.bsky.social and @carladenyer.bsky.social are sponsoring an EDM supporting the trans community ✊🏼 Notable that they declare that "there is no such thing as gender ideology, but that term is used to oppose acceptance of trans people" edm.parliament.uk/early-day-mo...

If the NHS had a million regular donors this would help keep stocks healthy and by donating blood you would truly be one in a million - So please Book an appointment or register today - it’s so easy to do ❤️🙏👇 blood.co.uk

Over 1,000 UK lawyers, academics & retired senior judges, including our founder Jo Maugham, say it’s time for the UK to meet its “fundamental international legal obligations by, among other things, ensuring the urgent, unconditional and unimpeded resumption of aid" to Gaza. lawyersletter.uk

Any politician who wants to ban migration for care homes should be forced to wait 9 hours for the toilet. I imagine pandering to anti-immigration groups would then feel as painful and illogical as it does to disabled and older people left without care workers. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

We have a desperate shortage of care workers. This has a catastrophic effect on the NHS too. Labour’s decision to close the care worker visa scheme for overseas recruitment is appalling, kneejerk politics that - yet again - will penalise the most vulnerable. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

The right to protest is fundamental in a democracy. It's great to see the courts agree. Credit to @libertyhq.bsky.social for getting Suella Braverman's unlawful regulations declared to be against the law. www.libertyhumanrights.org.uk/issue/libert...

The Court of Appeal has this week ruled that anti-protest laws which completely ignored the will of Parliament are UNLAWFUL It has not been mentioned on a single news show this morning. If they won’t cover it let’s do it ourselves

On what is a really difficult day, here are some resources for our trans friends and allies. Solidarity 💜 goodlawproject.org/resource/sup...

Government needs to instead step up and offer safe and legal routes to pull the rug from the illegal people smugglers. As it stands, many of those with legitimate asylum claims have no legitimate way of reaching the UK - this intolerable situation cannot be allowed to continue.

🖤 Black women in the UK are almost 4x more likely to die in childbirth. This isn’t just a stat – it’s a call to action. Nurses & midwives must lead the change by listening, advocating, and acting. #BMHW #BlackMaternalHealth #DiverseNurse #CulturalSafety

Today's Supreme Court Ruling - which will decimate trans lives - is a direct result of a case funded substantially by J K Rowling. This is what we mean when we say support J K Rowling & Harry Potter has tangible harms for trans people.
