A busy day of campaigning today! Out delivering our autumn newsletter this morning, and then speaking to residents on the Blackthorn estate this afternoon. Thanks to everyone that took the time to speak to us and raise their concerns 💚

We could not be prouder that someone is wearing one of our "pro trans, pro trains" t-shirts to anti-fascism protests in Washington DC. Sending solidarity to everyone opposing the far right in the USA and around the world.

It's amazing to have so much support from these fantastic members and campaigners! This is the last day you can join the party to vote #Rach4Deputy ! Join us today. join.greenparty.org.uk

@haydnob.bsky.social is such an impressive campaigner! I'm looking forward to giving him my first preference vote once the ballot opens 🗳️ #HaydnForCampaigns

What a mess! Wakefield Tory councillors defecting to Reform. Wakefield Labour councillors having to abandon their party and sit as independents. When will this incompetence and chaos stop? It's time for some positive change in how things are run. Vote Green in 2026!

It’s absolutely outrageous that @ameliagentleman.bsky.social has written this article and hasn’t included a single word from sex worker-led organisations or outreach charities that work with sex workers who oppose these proposals. Where is the balance? Where are the voices of actual sex workers?

I was so pleased to bring this issue to the Council's attention today. Let's hope they take note and take action.

The Green Party has a massive comms problem. If we're serious about fighting the far right, we have to do something about it. In the summer, we have a fantastic opportunity to elect new leadership and a new GPEx. We can't afford to squander this chance.

SOME GREENS GET IT Cheers @owenjones.bsky.social for the shout out Plans are in motion - watch our latest update to find out how you can help P.S. We’re not infighting *we’re organising

Starring the year as I mean to go on - cursing floor level letterboxes Great to be back on the doorsteps of #WakefieldNorth

✍️ Why federalism, not timid devolution, is key to England’s future England needs bold change: timid devolution won’t fix our democratic deficit – federalism can empower regions and rebuild trust in government By Olli Watkins @olliwatkins.bsky.social

My latest article for Yorkshire Bylines 👇

It is true that the NHS is not functioning properly. It is also true that people are suffering for no reason because medicine has taken them as far as it can and we should be giving those people the option to end their life instead of forcing them to go through it alone.

I just hope we still get a West Yorkshire tram

We are delighted to announce that our candidate for the Featherstone by-election is Alex Wood! 💚 For a fairer, greener Featherstone, vote Green on 12th December 🗳️ #VoteGreen #GetGreensElected

My thoughts are with John Prescott’s loved ones this morning - he made a huge impact on British politics, and on global climate action (one of the lead architects of Kyoto protocol), thanks to his combination of principles and down to earth straight talking. May he rest in peace

Delighted to have been re-elected as membership secretary and campaign manager at Wakefield Green Party's AGM this evening! 2024 has been a great year for us and I'm really excited to build on that in '25 💚

This gives me a second reason for visiting Wuppertal (riding the Schwebebahn being the primary reason)

£2 is already too expensive for a bus ticket.

It's wildly irresponsible of me to read a book titled 'The First to Die at the End' and expect to come out of it unscathed.

I must say, not having Temu ads every five seconds is incredibly refreshing

🌱 I've made a starter pack of Young Greens that I've found on here so far. 👇 Comment below to be added! go.bsky.app/KZ4GRiy

Had a great litter pick yesterday, a good few bags of rubbish collected and issues found for me and @ashtonhowick.bsky.social to follow up on - including this bridge on the footpath on Bective Road, which has recently been damaged and is definitely not safe to go across in the dark!

I've never used goodreads and have only recently got back into reading for pleasure but StoryGraph is so cool if you're a data nerd like me, 10/10 would recommend

trams !!!

Ellie has been consistently very impressive in her time in the Commons so far, looking forward to seeing her in QT tonight 💚

🆕 @heathermackbristol.bsky.social has been announced as @thegreenparty.bsky.social candidate for West of England metro mayor. “I hope to add to our Green wins across the region this year and offer a vision of real hope and real change,” says Heather.

Need someone to explain why I've just spent a good hour looking at past Monégasque general election results

🌎 Our world is burning around us, and COP continues to deliver greenwashing and PR instead of strict agreements enforced by economic consequences. www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/opinion...

Getting more people out of cars and on to bikes is essential if Keir Starmer is to meet his new climate goals announced today at #Cop29. And yet Labour's commitments to active travel in the budget were tiny. They must do more. And quickly.

I've woken up today with 'Solitaire' by The Carpenters as the only thing in my head??

it's odd having a feed full of people i agree with...
