"The same system that's poisoning our rivers is poisoning our minds, and we have to draw a line."

💚 Ealing Green Party members joined Clare and Andrew, our Hanwell Broadway candidates, talking to residents this morning. ✊ We had lots of positive conversations with residents sick and tired of the Labour-led council and looking forward to voting for a Green voice in the room!

💚 Delighted to announce we just reached 73,000 new members! ✊🏽 @greenparty.org.uk is the party of environmental, social, racial and economic justice. 👉🏼 Join.greenparty.org.uk

The scenes on our streets are shameful consequences of decades of austerity - government after government fanning the flames of anti migration instead of tackling inequality. We can & must make different choices. Solidarity to all communities under attack. We stand together.

🚨 Our next event is on Saturday morning at 11am. Join us and help campaign for Real Hope and Real Change in Ealing. See our events page to RSVP and please share this post with like minded friends - we'd love to meet you!

If we are going to achieve Vision Zero in London, we need a step change in action. Helsinki has gone a whole year without a road death. It is possible. Full exchange with mayor in 🧵

💪 Ealing Greens joined @hounslowgreens.bsky.social at the Brentford Festival today. 💚 We had some very positive conversations with local residents fed up of the Labour-led Council and looking forward to voting Green next year!

The #ElizabethLine is definitely a success. #Hanwell is absolutely packed at rush hour but busy outside of that and at weekends. It’s about time for #TFL to stop terminating so many westbound trains at Paddington and give us (and Acton Main Line) a more frequent service.

#HeathrowExpansion We oppose it With the #ClimateEmergency we shouldn’t be expanding airports like Heathrow It will blight the whole area, inc pollution & noise Yet only 14 people in Kingston & Surbiton have signed this petition Closing date Sept 24 petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

Nigel Farage is the biggest charlatan in British political history. And here's what his constitutents in Clacton really think:

"Zack Polanski said it was 'rank hypocrisy' for Nigel Farage to call for Angela Rayner's resignation and not to do so himself." inews.co.uk/news/green-p...

💚 Started this morning with the first formal meeting of the new Leadership Team! 🙌🏼 Working alongside our brilliant MPs, Assembly Members and councillors across England & Wales - @greenparty.org.uk are unstoppable. 👏🏼 Please give @rachelmillward.bsky.social & @mothinali.bsky.social a follow!

🎉 Amazing news! Ealing Council has rejected the application for a 24 hour gambling venue on our doorstep. 💪 Huge well done to all the local residents who led this campaign!

🚨 TODAY! ✊ Ealing Green Party members will join residents on this demonstration against a proposed casino on our doorstep ❌ A 24 hour casino will worsen problem gambling in the area, often at the expense of already vulnerable people

The snake oil salesman got his way once - the result was a disaster. Don’t let him do it again

Migrants didn't cut council funding. Migrants didn't cut NHS funding. Migrants didn't close youth centres. Migrants didn't sell off council houses. Migrants aren't filling our rivers with sewage. Farage and co. will tell you to point the finger at migrants. Don't fall for it.

When fascism threatens, it's the duty of all democratic politicians to oppose in the strongest possible terms Unbelievably depressing that Labour are failing to do this

FFS - ignoring them doesn’t make them go away. And the vacuum is filled by ever more angry bile. Farage needs to be challenged at every step - the snake oil salesman who promised leaving the EU would “give us back control” (that went well) now promising that leaving the ECHR will do the same…

🚽 New public toilets are now open at White Hart Lane and Seven Sisters!    After years of campaigning, I persuaded the Mayor to invest £3 million a year for five years to install more toilets across the Tube and Overground.   This is a big win for everyone who helped me make the case.

Our Hanwell Broadway candidate, Clare Welsby, spoke to Ealing.News about the anxiety being caused by Labour's cuts to Ealing's children's services, and the Crowdfunder that will support a legal challenge to fight closures ealing.news/news/opinion...

🚨 The Save Ealing Children's Centres campaign has started a crowdfunder to fund a legal challenge against Ealing Council's decision to close 10 children's centres. All donations greatly appreciated ⬇️ www.crowdjustice.com/case/save-ea...

The Home Secretary calls the Israeli govt’s actions in Gaza ‘intolerable.’ But he is tolerating it. I asked when he will take real action: a full arms embargo, widespread sanctions, a ban on the import of settlement goods, and funding for evidence collection for prosecutions.

Today: Two new Green councillors in London who join us from Labour. Cllr Campbell-Simon: "I refuse to be complicit in policies that harm the communities I was elected to stand with." Cllr Collins: "I'm proud to join a party that puts people & planet first." Welcome 💚 👉 join.greenparty.org.uk

Please support this urgent crowdfunder to challenge the plans by Ealing Labour to close many of the Children's Centres in Ealing. Children's Centres provide education and advice to families with and expecting children, and a place for young children to socialise before they start primary school.

🚨 Ealing Council has once again chosen to target the most vulnerable in our society. 👎 The decision to close 10 children's centres has been upheld despite strong local opposition. Here's Clare Welsby, our candidate for Hanwell Broadway, speaking outside the Council today ⬇️

I went to a constituent drop in hosted by my MP. Asked how she would be voting in the Welfare Reform Bill on Tuesday. Waffled about "getting people off the scrapheap" then confirmed she will be voting with the Government. But I also met Melanie who is 85 & going to make me Sri Lankan curry.

Congratulations to Budapest on a record-breaking Pride! 🏳️‍🌈 200,000 people turned out in defiance of the far-right government's attempt to ban the event, with threats of fines for attendees and imprisonment for organisers. Freedom prevails when we fight for it.

Political pressure means a reprieve for some who were set to be cruelly harmed, but this is way too small a concession to accept. Greens demand the full withdrawal of cuts to PIP and any changes only through working with Disabled people to get it right. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is why ex-Labour voters are now voting Green

Not one of Ealing's Labour MPs saw fit to oppose the cuts to Personal Independence Payments for disabled people. Balancing the books on the backs of the most vulnerable is wrong.

Our celebration will recreate some of the ‘unplugged’, nature-based and joyful atmosphere and events from the time, including Morris dancers, a maypole and a variety of art and food stalls.  Please come along and celebrate the founding of your park.

Please join the protest outside Ealing Town Hall at 5:30 today - Children's Centres are a vital investment in future generations, you may not personally know families who benefit from the service, but they are our community. Labour has lost its way.

Sure Start had a huge positive impact on the prospects for our children, but the Tory/LibDem government made cuts and now Ealing Labour are going further. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

I’m delighted the govt is expanding eligibility for Free School Meals. This is something I campaigned hard for during the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill. Now govt needs to scrap the 2 child benefits cap.

While Ealing is making progress, there are still unacceptable, huge gaps in what could be considered a safe cycling network.

Come celebrate our #BrentRiverPark 50th Anniversary!🌿🥳🎂Sunday 29th June join us as we unveil new history signs to mark the astonishing vision of Luke FitzHerbert who brought our 7km park to life! Wildlife walks/talks, food, history, arts, writing, fun run, maypole, fundraiser launch and more!💚
