We're a movement of young people fighting for climate justice. Are you with us? Promoted by Green New Deal Rising, 144 Cambridge Heath Rd, E1 5QJ linktr.ee/gndrising

Our message to the new Prime Minister. What we’re asking for isn’t radical - a decent job, somewhere to live, places to meet our friends, a safe climate. We deserve a future we can look forward to. And we're getting organised to win it. Join us.

Burnham’s victory in Makerfield is clearly the nail in the coffin of Keir Starmer’s disastrous government. BUT - a change of Prime Minister alone cannot beat Reform or deliver the change people deserve. For that, we need different and bolder policies. 🧵

Airport expansion is a climate disaster which only benefits wealthy business-people - while threatening all of our futures. Time to invest in world-class reliable public transport systems to upgrade our patchy train & bus networks - not airport expansion to please big business.

Millionaires are five times more concerned about doctors leaving the UK than they are about other millionaires emigrating 💸 Our poll also found millionaires are proud to live in the UK, and they're willing to pay more tax to invest in our country and its young people.

The #MayElections results so far 🧵 TLDR: Labour abandoning progressive values is creating a vacuum driving support for Reform - whilst surging support for Plaid Cymru + Greens shows the way to beat the far right is to deliver the radical progressive change voters are craving.

🚨Zoe Garbett elected Mayor of Hackney This must be a wake up call to Labour, losing in one of its historic strongholds. Communities desperately want a hopeful alternative to the status quo. Yesterday in Hackney, they voted for it.

TRANSLATION: Chancellor confirms she's 'very happy' to... -Torpedo climate progress -Keep us hooked on volatile, expensive fossil fuels (instead of cheap clean energy) -Make us all poorer and less safe -Dance to Reform Trump's climate denialist tune Dangerous moral cowardice.

Almost two thirds of people in the UK have cut back on essentials due to the cost of living. The crisis isn’t over — it’s getting worse. Today we're launching the Cost of Living Action campaign, calling on the Government to end this crisis and ensure it never happens again.

👩‍⚕️👨‍🚒🤵 Doctors, firefighters, even the super-rich themselves can see it… so why can’t Rachel Reeves? It’s time to tax the super‑rich & invest in our collective future. Yesterday, we delivered over 700,000 signatures demanding that the govt delivers #TaxJustice at the budget.

We're not asking for the world. We just want a fair chance, the same living standards our parents enjoyed and a safe, habitable future. In @bigissue.com, young people with GNDrising explain why we're demanding wealth taxes on the super-rich at the Budget👇 www.bigissue.com/news/politic...

Could a wealth tax convince young people to vote Labour?

Two-thirds of voters back measures to tax extreme wealth. We asked young people why they support a wealth tax.

50 families own more wealth than HALF THE POPULATION. Wealth inequality is out of control. And growing. At the Budget, the Chancellor could do something about this, make the super-rich PAY UP and get our country back on track. Your move Rachel.
