✊ Tens of thousands of people marched in the streets of Belém today to demand a global just transition, an end to oil, gas and coal, & a fossil free Amazon 🌳

One nice detail that can easily be lost in this graph - even right wingers trust the BBC more than the right wing tabloids

Any chance of a UK Prime Minister telling a foreign government that it has no business telling us what we should watch and listen?

For those whi deny there's money and jobs in this 'green crap'

Can’t quite believe the Chancellor is seriously considering slashing support for home energy efficiency as a way to cut fuel bills 👀. Locking people into cold & leaky homes which will cost them more to heat & decimating the insulation industry at same time. Total madness 👇

3 things Starmer could do instead of camps in old barracks that would actually WORK👇 1. Create safe, regulated routes to apply for asylum in the UK 2. Let asylum seekers WORK & support themselves 3. Fast track status for people from obviously unsafe countries metro.co.uk/2025/10/29/k...

Asylum seekers, housed in hotels in Manchester, are reaching out in their own words to address the concerns of the local community. Please take a minute to read their letter, & share it with the people in your life who need to hear the truth about the people they are protesting.

Congratulations to Labour, somehow ending up to the economic right of the Confederation of British Industry... www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Unsettling but brilliant read: We need to force the right to show its true intent now rather than letting it creep up on us www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Here's the breakdown of abstentions and votes against: I need to add "disappointed to see Labour cllrs voting against this". Labour, LibDems and Tories blocking renewable energy - and one lone sane Green vote... bsky.app/profile/matt...

Reform led Nottinghamshire Council has blacklisted a local paper for asking questions about what councillors were doing. Farage says he welcomes free speech, that should apply to freedom of the press too. Sign the petition to get them to reverse the decision: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/re...

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell. Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass. That, right there, is the problem.

🤣

Zack Polanski on R4 any questions, giving it large! …and being well received! Especially when he reviewed Farage’s activities…refreshing…. Really wondering about the political polling companies 😉 Well worth a listen…. @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Reform UK are yelling “drill, baby, drill” 🙄 But fracking is reckless & won’t even cut bills. Time to end this nonsense. Tell Ed Miliband: BAN FRACKING permanently. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ke...

Every day the government delays banning the sale of peat compost means more carbon lost to the atmosphere from this appalling practice www.wildlifetrusts.org/news/vast-ar...

It's important to assume that Reform in Government would indeed try to do this. The right thing is not to tell the public that this won't happen - so they can therefore vote for Reform without guilt - but rather that a vote for Reform is a vote for the suffering of hundreds of thousands of people.

Those Reform nutjobs reminded me: "Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, grabbing an Indian curry or Turkish kebab takeaway, then going home to sit on Swedish furniture & watch American shows on a Japanese TV, while being suspicious of anything foreign."

The ever-eloquent @rafaelbehr.bsky.social pointedly refusing to mince his words on what Farage has done for us. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Why is this government so cowardly? The Reform narrative is so thin and should be easy to counter.

I founded an international women's film festival which called out inequality and changed the narrative around gender in the most powerful medium of its day. I regularly speak for a wealth tax, against disability cuts, for proper funding of public services, and more. #Rach4Deputy #RankRachel1st

The Council has no plans to challenge the use of hotels for asylum seekers in #Bristol. Council Leader Tony Dyer: “Bristol is a long-established place of sanctuary ... We are a diverse city and are proud to welcome and provide safety for people seeking sanctuary from a wide range of backgrounds.”

The Green Party has higher favourability ratings than any other party. We’re now the *only* party with a positive net rating! That broad appeal was crucial to the seats we won last year & - with your votes - that's what Ellie & I plan to build on to win many more! #TogetherWeWin

WHY the *fuck* is a party political broadcast by Nigel Farage being misreported as "Breaking News"?

My whole being sighs with relief when I hear clear common sense and truth spelled out, as it was by @sianberry.bsky.social on #bbcwestminsterhour on Saturday. Listen from 13.15, with Sian's main contribution at 21.10 www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... Read thread for a summary 🧵1/3

'Immigration doesn't bother me but it seems to bother everyone else' – Everyone. This is what happens when the media runs away with Hard Right narratives.

A reminder: Asylum seekers are in hotels because of a huge application backlog that the gov't must work through. Robert Jenrick - now, bursting with creative solutions - processed applications slowly ***on purpose*** as a deterrent. Here he is, as Immigration Minister two years ago, saying so. ~AA

It was great to join the Deputy Leader hustings with Greens Organise last night. Here’s me spelling out the difference proactive central party comms can make for local Greens in power. I’m determined to bring this change if I’m elected. #Rach4Deputy www.rach4deputy.com

The failing Home Office has torn lives, families and communities apart by treating migration as a crime. The #Windrush generation know this better than anyone - powerful hearing from Glenda Caesar at launch of No Way Home report on breaking up the Home Office - w @zoejardiniere.bsky.social

Fab news! Looking forward to working with you to open up the rural areas around Carterton and Brize to properly safe and accessible cycling.

Billpayers will have to foot the bill for Sizewell C - a costly project that will take an age before it starts producing any energy. Supporting renewables and home insulation would have a bigger and quicker impact. We need clean, affordable power - not another nuclear money pit.

Yes of course it's "woke" to protect Nature. The opposite is to be fast asleep as the biosphere dies. We need to reclaim this word. #wokeandproud #wideawake www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Reform don’t think climate change is real and all the other parties are dancing to their tune. Here’s @carladenyer.bsky.social on @novaramedia.com explaining how we as Greens must be steadfast in fighting their lies.

🙌🏼Huge welcome to @TheGreenParty to Sonia Winfred. 🥀 "Following several years as a Labour Councillor and Cabinet Member I no longer recognise the party I voted for and believed in. 💚 My decision to join the Green Party was not difficult." www.brixtonbuzz.com/2025/04/susp...

"This is our chance to send the Government a clear message that we deserve better." Young Greens lay out just some of the reasons you should vote Green on 1 May.

Thanks @oxfordclarion.bsky.social for raising the standards of local journalism. This is real, well-informed and funny.

Trump & his tariffs... It's like a grimly farcical version of King Lear. "I will do such things - What they are yet I know not, but they shall be The terrors of the earth!" #Newsnight

Everybody involved with #treeplanting needs to read this thread. Migration, whether of plants or people, is our best hope of salvation.
