As illegal international aggression once again highlights the need for investment in renewable energy, it is crucial the govt do everything possible to protect households from bearing the brunt of surging energy prices - and to ensure no energy company profits from this war.

Definitions of Islamophobia exist, almost unanimously accepted by all Muslim organisations, there's even an APPG one!

The new definition falls short in providing protection for British Muslims, at a time when Islamophobic hate crimes are skyrocketting

We just need to implement what we already have

Now feels like a good time to remember that Big Oil is the reason why we're still hooked on dirty, dangerous fossil fuels.

The industry's lies have essentially stolen a generation’s worth of time that we could have used to transition to cleaner, safer energy sources.

It’s time for accountability.

Mainstream/centrist parties have failed to address this. We need the Greens.

Gas price shocks after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine showed the danger of relying on fossil fuels tied to volatile global markets.

Renewables offer something fossil fuels never can: stable energy where the price never changes.

Over 1000 civilians dead, and we're letting Trump use UK bases to further his war.

Britain should stand firm against Trump's illegal warmongering, and stop these bombers landing on UK soil.

Another week, and another by-election demonstrating that:
❌ voters are tired of the old two-party system
❌ they don’t want division and hatred

Shocking. Labour’s immigration policies are now so far to the right that they might depend on Tory votes to get through.

This is what any sensible politician should be saying in the face of Labour's hostile policies against those seeking safety. Home Secretary, and others in Labour, have flat out lied today, and previously. They've lied about those seeking asylum, migrants in general and those defending their rights.

Read these words from 100 years ago about immigrants in Britain – and see how history is chillingly repeating itself | George Monbiot Shabana Mahmood’s new rights clampdown looks outlandish until we remember that this kind of hardline action is part of our country’s fabric, says George Monbiot

The precedent is eerily, chillingly precise. What the current Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is doing to immigrants and refugees today is almost a carbon copy of what Sir William Joynson-Hicks was doing 100 years ago. And that's not a good thing. My column.

Gorton and Denton showed that people are desperate for a different kind of politics.

But Labour have doubled down: with smears, misrepresentation, and BNP-inspired migration policy.

How low will Labour go? πŸ“‰

The Home Secretary’s own MPs see through this. She is desperate and dangerous.

NHS official pushed to add patient data to Palantir platform whilst also advising company

NHS official pushed to add patient data to Palantir platform whilst also advising company

A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts.

Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir.

This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition:

Crypto investor based in Thailand donates further Β£3m to Reform Christopher Harborne’s gift is latest to party’s election war chest and comes amid calls for cap on political donations

Absolutely outrageous. Political parties should be answerable first and foremost to the public - not to the agenda of uber-wealthy donors. We urgently need a cap on political donations and a ban on crypto donations.

A brilliant letter from a Party leader who genuinely cares about the plight of humans struggling to make their lives even remotely palatable, to a Home Secretary who once shared the same sentiments.

Our drug policy makes sense, @greendrugpolicy.bsky.social. The war on drugs has failed we need take a public health approach to help people, that means legalise and regulate and follow advice from proper health professionals.

Labours attitudes towards water companies is one of the starkest examples of how they'll do anything to protect the status quo.

The case for water nationalisation is so bloody obvious to everyone - yet they'll do anything they can to keep the failed privatisation experiment.

Thank you email for joining the Green Party

Just joined UK’s Green Party for a few reasons. Starmer himself suggested ppl like me leave the Labour Party when he assumed leadership. Request granted. But the Greens’ recent success & polling (and more importantly their policy goals!) show them to be robust & viable.

The choice is stark. Reform are the party of foreign wars and high bills.

The Greens want de-escalation and energy security through renewables. Solar and wind prices don't fluctuate when rogue US presidents launch illegal bombing campaigns.

The problem wasn't really the negative campaign.

The problem is that it was a smear campaign based on lies.

And still Labour aren't offering any solutions to the highest drug deaths in Europe.

Let's have *that* conversation.
