According to C4 news, UK arms sales to Israel reached their highest level in June 2025, & 2nd highest in Sept 2025. Yesterday, I called on Labour reps who say they oppose genocide to leave the party. youtu.be/k06IxOa7cII Other parties are available. Be part of the change 💚 join.greenparty.org.uk

“Helsinki has not recorded a single traffic fatality in the past 12 months, city and police officials confirmed this week.” City engineer credits lower speed limits and smart design. I agree. #Helsinki #VisionZero

At Full Council last week, Labour could not refute specific evidence of their role in war crimes 👀

MSF survey on Gaza: almost half of those killed were children

Climate breakdown is killing people. Failure to act is a choice. Every day we make that choice more people will die and costs will rise. We can choose: 🚌Better, cheaper public transport ⚡️Cleaner, cheaper renewable energy 🌲Restored forests, landscapes and biodiversity

And Starmer has nothing to say There is no way that the UK government, and those of the rest of the western countries looking the other way, are not complicit in genocide Obscene, indefensible and criminal www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

If you live in the north, this government (like the last one) holds you in utter contempt. They just could not give a shit about you or your quality of life.

"This is a cowardly ruling that absolves any responsibility from the court to rule on the UK government’s compliance with international law." www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

580 fragile infants at Nasser Hospital, Gaza, are dying NOW for lack of formula milk. Israel is preventing a drop of it from getting in, fearing that... Hamas men will drink it all. And the West sits by idly, twiddling its blood-stains thumbs. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZFf...

"We would be looking to the ultra rich, not the poorest in society..." Leader of Stroud District Council, Cllr Chloe Turner explains why the Green Party opposes the Government's cruel plans to cut disability benefits.

DWP benefit cuts to push 150,000 people into poverty despite partial U-turn. How many will die prematurely? Last year HMRC failed to collect £46.8bn of taxes. Please tell your MP to oppose the cruel cuts.

This panicked political fix to an indefensible policy lacks both competence and compassion. I urged the Secretary of State to do the right thing: scrap the cuts entirely and co-produce a plan with disabled people. 🥀 Sadly, it seems the government "fundamentally disagrees".

Barclays holds over £2bil in shares, and provides £6.1bil in loans to companies whose weapons and tech are used by Israel in the Palestinian genocide. @greenbenali.bsky.social addresses Islington Palestine Solidarity Campaign’s protest to push Islington council to boycott Barclays.

"Two Palestinians have already died [as of March 2024] while waiting to hear back from the Home Office..." @carladenyer.bsky.social on the urgent need to create a scheme to reunite Palestinians in Gaza with family in the UK, to impose stricter sanctions and to end all arms sales to Israel.

Today, MPs got a letter from Liz Kendall with the Government's panicked proposals for a two-tier disability benefits system, harsher and meaner to people who fall sick or disabled after Nov 2026. Not acceptable - Green MPs will vote against the Bill tomorrow #TakingThePIP #WelfareBill

Well said @alexidimond.bsky.social. www.thestar.co.uk/news/politic...

Labour are absolutely terrible. This is Angela Rayner’s department. Not the great alternative some assert.

EXCLUSIVE: US spy tech firm Palantir is working with UK police forces to develop a real-time surveillance network using sensitive personal data Liberty Investigates' new story with @theipaper.com inews.co.uk/news/police-...

Oops! AI did it again... you're not that innocent. ‬Nectar, a 'crime-predicting' system developed with Palantir, could be rolled out nationally. Race, sex life, trade union membership and health are used to 'predict' criminality so people can be targeted for surveillance. #SafetyNotSurveillance

🚨🚨 Breaking: Local Democracy 🚨🚨 Labour are planning to ABOLISH the committee system for Local Government. #Sheffield fought hard to get rid of "the strong leader" model. This follows #Labour abolishing District Councils. questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-stat...

I'm pleased plans for this 14 bedroom HMO in Gleadless Valley has been withdrawn following objections from myself and many residents. Some of the rooms were as small as 7m². @sheffgreenparty.bsky.social www.thestar.co.uk/news/politic...

Fact of the day: the government could raise 5x more by taxing extreme wealth than it hopes to save through these cuts.

The climate crisis isn't some distant threat. It's here and it's now. Both around the world and in the UK. As Chair of the Fire Committee - I spoke to the Financial Times about wildfires. www.ft.com/content/fe84...

Another day another Israeli mass murder in Gaza Anything to say Mr Starmer? No, thought not www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

More than 4.5 million people have been killed in the Middle East since 2001 in conflicts involving Western interventions. Starmer must not increase this horrific death toll through military intervention. Labour must learn the lessons from the past and end all arms sales immediately.

I know this *looks* like something from the days of Priti Patel and Suella Braverman in Government. But in fact, this is today's Labour Party.

We're arming a genocide - and thought that was rock bottom. Now, in desperate pursuit of the so-called “special relationship” - really just servitude to US corporate power - Starmer won’t even rule out more illegal wars.

This is simply lies www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Thank you and welcome! 💚🙏🏽

Thank you Cllr Alex Dimond! @alexidimond.bsky.social

Facts 👇 "This Labour government has doubled down on Tory-style austerity," he said. "The party I joined no longer exists. It belongs to Keir Starmer, not the people. His tough decisions fall on ordinary families, not the ultra-wealthy." www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

@alexidimond.bsky.social hi I assume that you are not happy that Tramlines supports and enables genocide. www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/r/e4599ca1?m...

Why is a better, equal society for all, such a difficult thing to achieve? Because we keep voting for the 'establishment' parties who do not care for us at all. It's time to kick #Labour, #Tory & #Reform into touch. Vote #Green & #BackZack for leader. We cannot go on like this. We NEED change.

I'm backing @zackpolanski.bsky.social to be the next Leader of the @greenparty.org.uk. Zack is an excellent communicator who can cut through media spin to take on Labour and Reform alike. People are tired of the broken politics of Westminster, and want bold brave advocates for change. #backzack

Everyday is a litany of horrifying tragedies And our government is complicit and devoid of moral authority

So we hear Angela Rayner has been giving Rachel Reeves ideas on how to change the tax system... Here's one: how about a wealth tax on the super rich? The UK's 50 richest families hold more wealth than 50% of the population. No more cruel cuts. It's time to tax wealth fairly.

Scrapping the two-child benefit cap is the "cost effective way" of getting 500,000 children out of poverty, according to former Prime Minister Gordon Brown. He's right. Child poverty is and always has been a political choice. Labour should remove the cap immediately.

"The Government [must recognise] the actions of Israel in Gaza as genocidal acts. We must suspend all arms exports to Israel, and ground the surveillance flights being carried out by the RAF over Gaza" @carladenyer.bsky.social‬ writes in the @metro.co.uk‬ 📷: Mohammed Ibrahim

Meeting up with fellow @greenparty.org.uk cllrs at a powerful We Demand Change summit in #Sheffield. At news of yet more horrific massacres in #Gaza, we are determined that we will always stand with #Palestine to end #genocide & the occupation, dismantle apartheid & achieve equality & justice ✊️💚🇵🇸

It should not be a surprise to anyone that Keir Starmer is making racist statements - he's been supporting the racist genocide of Palestinians for the last year and a half.

Today is #VEday. But for the last 2 years the West has been participating in #GenocideByIsrael. Was #fascism and the idea of the superiority of one people over another really defeated? The extermination of thousands of #Palestinians shows that it was not. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Just out: figures for sewage dumping in England for 2024. * 3.61 million hrs of sewage released. * That's c. 412 years of sewage. * First yr all 15,000 CSOs were monitored. £85bn paid out to shareholders since privatisation = underfunded, collapsing infrastructure. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Arresting Quaker women for non-violent protest and breaking into a meeting house to do so. The first time anyone has been arrested in a meeting house in living memory. Despicable behaviour from a Labour government’s Home Office/the Met Police.

UK, 2025: a country where police break into a place of worship and arrest those inside who are having a meeting and might be planning a non-violent action. The right to peaceful protest is an essential part of a healthy democracy. Governments who crack down on it are governments to be very wary of.
