Have you ever taken out a student loan? Parliament's Treasury Committee, which scrutinises the Treasury & its policies, is conducting a survey on student loans. They are seeking input to help inform their scrutiny of the student loans system and the taxation of graduates.

"It's a question of where’s that money's going? And you've handed over our private patient data to Palantir, a company with far-right connections. If that money was instead going into the front line, we might all have a better chance of having a better NHS" Caroline Lucas on the NHS on #BBCQT

The Green MPs and Peers have written to Keir Starmer to urge for an end to the UK's involvement in the US and Israel's illegal war. Under international law, the UK is obliged to have no involvement in illegal military action, including the use of UK bases and UK-made weapons.

Letter begins:

Dear Prime Minister, 

We are writing as Green Party MPs and Peers to express our alarm at the UK’s involvement in the illegal US-Israeli war on Iran. 

Already well over 1,000 civilians have been killed, including a reported 168 children killed by a missile now widely believed to be from the United States (Guardian, 2026). UNICEF has reported that the Israeli military's assault on Lebanon is killing or injuring the equivalent of one classroom of children every day (Reuters, 2026).

In addition to the grave humanitarian impacts, the longer this illegal, unnecessary war continues, the greater the global economic fallout – to which the UK is particularly exposed because it remains heavily reliant on fossil fuels.

The Gaza Tribunal paints a bleak picture of UK governments' failure to prevent genocide and complicity in atrocities against Palestinians. We support demands for transparency, boycotts and sanctions, and an end to all arms sales and intelligence sharing. End the genocide.
