South West Water pleaded guilty to sewage dumping, fined £8m, a decade after the events. Yet govt introduced more deregulation. England's water industry controlled by organisations with criminal convictions. None has licence revoked. No exec prosecuted. Customers fleeced.

This Labour government could have responded to the genocide in Gaza in so many ways, instead they cut aid. This is a dereliction of duty.

This is a very moving film from Greens4Palestine 💚✊

This motion is about the liberation of Palestinians from the ideology that suppresses them: Zionism. We judge Zionism by what it is in reality, not what it could be in theory. When we speak of Zionism, we speak of an ideology Palestinians have endured for nearly eighty years.

Unaffordable rents. Spiralling bills. Not enough council homes. People need bold change on housing, not more of the same.

Just ruins. Homes, communities, places of worship, parks, playgrounds, cafes, livelihoods, schools, hospitals, families, friends, pets…all just a ghost of a wasteland, it’s soul never to breath again. We voted in national leaders who made this happen.

We need more Greens in Parliament to hold Labour to account 💚

And that is the bottom line 😔

While Labour talks about change at its Conference, their actions in arming Israel and arresting people for supporting Palestine Action remain the same.
