Why do I focus on #AntimicrobialResistance? Because #AMR urgently needs a _lot_ more attention. Typhoid fever just one of many concerns #PublicHealth #Security www.sciencealert.com/ancient-kill...

Yesterday we changed the course of history. Together. Thank you. @greenparty.org.uk @mcrgreenparty.bsky.social @zackpolanski.bsky.social

The solution is problem free. It's only problematic if you operate from the base assumption that the carriageway is only for private vehicles. **THAT** is the real problem. (And yes, bikes and scooters absolutely should be parked on the carriageway; not on footpaths and pavements).

🚨 Every year 443 children are injured on the school run in London. That’s the same number of children as a large primary school. 😢 Every injury has a lasting impact on the child and family. This isn’t right. Agree? Support our #streetsforkids campaign www.solvetheschoolrun.org/streetsforkids

Thank YOU Caroline for building the parliamentary foundations on which this builds! 💪😀

This afternoon, #AssemblyHealth has heard evidence from school representatives as part of its rapporteurship into enabling community use of school sports facilities to support exercise and reduce health inequalities for young people. Find out more: www.london.gov.uk/rapporteursh...

Sky News don't seem as excited as the rest of us. m.youtube.com/watch?v=Npvw...

Wonderful news to wake up to! Listening to Hannah’s speech is the first time I have felt hope in quite a while.

This is absolutely what will happen; the full power of the establishment will be turned on the Green Party. Every newspaper, every TV channel, every social media algorithm. The whole lot will be focused on discrediting the Green Party.

Congratulations Hannah Spencer and the Greens ! And thank you for showing progressive policies are popular. Labour's right wing was rightly thrashed in Denton & Gorton - and must be punished for bringing Labour into disrepute with racist policies on migration & with austerity- style economics.

Beautiful acceptance speech and interview on Sky as @greenpartyhan.bsky.social makes UK political history 1800 volunteers turned up today & helped the Greens get 40% of the vote share But it's Hannah's sincerity that won this election and makes her such a special addition to parliament 💚🙏🏽

Couldn't be more proud for be Green today. Thank you to everyone who helped out. We are here to replace Labour. Hackney next! Let's get all our amazing Greens candidates elected! 7th May here we come... See you Saturday for doorknocking & celebrating? 😁 www.hackneygreens.org.uk/big_day_out_...

Absolutely incredible news. Gorton and Denton voted hope over fear - Hannah has won the heart of the country. Joining our 4 Green MPs as our first MP of the north. Hannah speaks so clearly of standing up for working class communities, against wealth of billionaires & those who seek to divide us.

Amazing result for the Greens Outside observers really have no idea how hungry for success most Green Party members are We’ve tasted crushing defeat so many times that we will push towards success with 10x the energy of Labour and Reform

Aagh. Early morning typo. Twice 🤦‍♀️ John Curtice obviously.

Congratulations @greenpartyhan.bsky.social 💚 The reality - it wasn't even close - despite Labour and Reform throwing everything they could at the @greenparty.org.uk People saw through their cynicism and dirty tactics, and chose hope over division, unity over hate Bring on the May locals ✊🏽

John Curtis doubling down on Conservative vote going to Reform. Some of it will, but there were Conservative voters in G&D who told me they wanted nothing to do with Reform.

One of the many wonderful things about this result is how, just months ago, hope felt so far away in the politics of this country. But now this. Thank you to everyone who made this possible!

John Curtis on BBC just saying Conservative vote was “gobbled up by Reform”, but doorknocking last weekend in Gorton and Denton I met Conservative voters who said they didn’t want to vote Reform and promised us Greens their vote.

Introducing Hannah Spencer MP 💚

Hannah Spencer MP for Gorton and Denton. Hope is here. 👌

Just woken up and turned on tv. Looks like result imminent. Keeping everything crossed that the awesome @greenparty.org.uk Hannah Spencer is over the line in Gorton and Denton.

I think this by-election has made the Labour Party lose its mind An openly progressive @greenparty.org.uk has sent Labour hurtling into the most regressive and reactionary hole in the political world. And they will struggle to climb out of it

So much great work! If you'd like to be part of the next push: join.greenparty.org.uk

wanting the Greens to win in Gorton and Denton is up there with things I've wanted more than anything else in life, closely followed by how much I want Labour to lose

Very good to see this (after a long day in budget plenary). Looking forward to seeing the detail of mitigations for older and disabled people along with any bus or cycle re-routing.

Brilliant to be out knocking on doors in Gorton and Denton with a lovely group of volunteers; we have 75 more groups like this getting out the vote all across the constituency! Just spoke to one voter whose daughter has made her own beautiful poster to show her support💚

You can see in a region like Wales where they've managed to get up to 68% recycling rate - there they seem to have understood what needs to be collected, what goes in what bin, and they've managed to get their recycling rates right up. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Good point. When I started driving in the late 1890s the speed limit was four miles an hour and you had to have a man with a red flag walking in front of you to warn people. It’s been downhill all the way since then, if you ask me.

With a huge shout out to my brilliant colleagues @carolinerussell.bsky.social and @zoegarbett.bsky.social who are going to be there for the rest of the day both questioning the Mayor on Transport and Policing but also proposing some excellent ideas to make people's lives better! 💚

Teamwork makes the dream work. Proud of the efforts for better transport and safety

Waterloo lift finally fixed yesterday only to break again today a month it’s been out of service it’s beyond a joke @carolinerussell.bsky.social @ldntravelwatch.bsky.social

With all my heart I want to have Hannah with me in Parliament next week. She is not only the best candidate to beat Reform but just simply the best new MP you could wish for. If you are voting today, choose Hannah, and tell everyone you meet to do the same! 💚💚💚🙏

Green Menaces - let’s go. 💚 Huge huge thanks to everyone who’s backed this campaign and shown it so much love. Now we leave nothing on the pitch. Let’s get this over the line. Vote Green. Join us: join.greenparty.org.uk

Labour know they're in third place. Yet in the last 48 hours have gone as far as obsessively attacking the Green Party and even creating a fake tactical voting website to spread misinformation. If you can't vote today - then join us instead! Join.greenparty.org.uk

This film shows the brilliant energy of people travelling the length and breadth of the country to help defeat Reform and win a @greenparty.org.uk MP. Go Hannah Spencer! .. and everyone wishing you all the energy to keep knocking till the polls close!

Today is the day. Hope vs hate. Green vs Reform. Vote Green in Gorton & Denton.

Wishing every ounce of energy to @greenparty.org.uk campaigners going door to door finding everyone who has said they’ll vote for hope and @greenpartyhan.bsky.social. I’ll be in @londonassembly.bsky.social budget all day and @islington-council.bsky.social budget tonight so sadly not on the doors.

In a few hours in Gorton and Denton - you have the opportunity to transform our politics. A vote for Hannah Spencer & the Green Party will entirely change our national conversation. And Hannah will be brilliant for Manchester. Check her out 👇🏼 youtu.be/uCy0VdHTVvs?...

Wow! Labour have been getting more and more desperate with every passing day. But this is off the charts. Inventing a tactical voting website?! www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/labour...

“I’ve faced a lot of criticism for my appearance, my hair, my relationship status… all the things that I just haven’t seen about people like Matt Goodwin". The Green Party's Gorton and Denton candidate Hannah Spencer talks to me about the "misogynistic" coverage of her by-election campaign

The exception, as ever, was Jenny Jones, who asked if there should be "some sort of education programme" to combat negative stereotypes about cycling. Hendy seemed to take that to mean education for cyclists about red lights.

The ITV News Central special on 'potholes and pile-ups' (not very sensitive given the road safety emergency with three people killed a day in the [wider] West Midlands region?) was wild. The episode had total cognitive dissonance between more traffic causing more congestion and worsening potholes.

☀️Sunshine really is the best disinfectant. For too long royal FOI exemptions have allowed royal power to act in the shadows, and conceal important truths from MPs, the press, and the public. They must be removed to tackle this systemic corruption.

I’m totally here for a radical overhaul of driving culture. It is weirdly, so normal that people in vehicles feel it is acceptable to drive fast close to people walking or cycling along a road. Do they have any idea how threatening their behaviour is?

Vote Green for a party that will treat human beings with humanity!

Standing in solidarity with Ukraine today and every day of Russia’s brutal and deadly invasion. More concerted effort must be made to press for a lasting ceasefire and Ukraine’s right to self-determination, which has been so violently threatened.
