These trials form part of the thorn in the side of politicians and corporate funders who are desperate to silence peaceful protest while maintaining the illusion of “democracy”. We must defend our right to protest against government failures. Join us: actionnetwork.org/forms/intere...

Hundreds will replicate this peaceful action outside Labour’s Liverpool conference on Sunday. Andy Burnham has a choice to make. Support the will of the people and overturn the ban or continue to arrest and prosecute thousands for peacefully protesting. wedonotcomply.org

Greens in power deliver for communities and nature. It was fantastic to help open the Wealden Community Sports hub. In Wealden we're delivering for our rural communities, families and young people. I can't wait to see how much it'll bring to our special part of the world.

Burnham saying there won't be an election until 2029 strongly suggests that Labour canvas/polling returns are showing that the Greens may well be winning in Holborn & St Pancras. Now is the time to get out there are make sure. We can win this!

The NHS needs to either be properly funded and provisioned by this government, or we need a government that will do it.

The @greenparty.org.uk can do it. It just takes public will to really bring about change. History has taught us well. Vote @zackpolanski.bsky.social in Holborn & St Pancras, take the fight back to parliament.

Absolutely huge victory as the Green Party take on Labour and win in Brighton! Huge congratulations to Cllr Mark Strong and the entire team. Labour have tired old solutions and Burnham is more of the same. The Green Party is the change we need. Awesome win! 💚🎉

Sustained economic growth can’t be achieved without a major boost to the purchasing power of the bottom 50% of the UK population. The govt can do so immediately by increasing income tax-free personal allowance by £3,000. All it needs to do is to end subsidies to commercial banks.

This is how the Chancellor can increase the personal allowance and lift millions out of hardship

Important piece by @fionaharvey.bsky.social on huge significance of the Report by UK Security Chiefs on rising climate & nature threats which has been shamefully suppressed by Government. Also the focus of my @therestpolitics.bsky.social mini-series, #WhenNatureBecomesASecurityThreat

Why is the UK’s suppressed climate national security report significant?

Warnings about the catastrophic effects of vital ecosystems collapsing were not published under previous prime minister

I spent much of this week talking with foreign officials who are in the U.S. for United Nations meetings. I was curious to know how they’re strategizing about the United States in the future. Here’s what I learned... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-to-plan-for-in-the-us-if-youre

Did you know that producing one pound of beef is 25-50x worse for climate change than burning a pound of coal? In fact, it’s one of the most polluting things we can consume. And grass-fed beef is usually *even worse* — thanks to its much higher land use and methane emissions.

Hello London! @caralavan.bsky.social and I are heading into Holborn and St Pancras to campaign for that there @zackpolanski.bsky.social! Everyone who cares about climate justice and a better future should join the fun - off to knock some doors! 😀💪💚

Another example of Burnham's Labour "doing politics different", by doing politics the same. 🤷‍♀️

Declassified journalists banned from Labour conference – again. A Trumpian policy started by Keir Starmer. Burnham can't make a fresh start without getting rid of the previous advisers. Democracy means accepting scrutiny, even when it is uncomfortable.

The Government plans to ban new licences for some types of fracking in England. Good news, but it doesn’t go far enough. Sign the petition to demand a PERMANENT ban covering ALL fracking⚡ act.38degrees.org.uk/act/ban-frac...

Ireland and the UK have both passed a ban on imports from Israeli settlements. The ban is next to useless because they will simply change the label on the items to Israel and they will avoid the boycott. Do a real boycott on Israel.

People will say "leave politics out of sport", or out of the arts or other international events. They're less inclined to say "leave genocide out of sports". Mick Lynch is 100% right, and Israel is effectively being appeased by being offered a cloak of respectability it doesn't deserve.

Mick Lynch is right on this one. Irish players should not have to take the field against a team representing such a country...

2/ These are community projects in pretty well-off, middle-class, green, lefty communities - where there are plenty of folks with time & money to try to make them happen. If even *these* folks get overridden by developers & councils, what hope for communities lacking such resources?

Awful. Capital overrides communities once again. Frome's bid for a community-led housing & regeneration project at Saxonvale lies in tatters: the council's agreed a deal with a London-based real estate company instead. Similar story in Totnes with Atmos project www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Justin sounding very sad and #r4today having a proper meltdown about the boats today… Maybe they should report on how Justin’s precious Brexit has made this possible… and how immigration is much harder to control when you huff out of shared frameworks and agreements.

How the corporate media sets the narrative:

Ed Poole@edpoole1975.bsky.social · yesterday

It's amazing to see the media try and frame the anger at Ed Sheeran as because he was silent, when in fact it's because he sacked someone for speaking out. I guarantee they would be angry at him too, if he sacked someone for saying "stop the boats" instead of "free Palestine"

Thinking about the BBC’s precious ‘balance’ which they say justifies opposing every climate scientist with an oil company liar. In their ideological platforming of pro-growth, where’s the voice for progressive economics? @kateraworth.bsky.social or @jasonhickel.bsky.social should be on every time

This is important. Zack will do a good, conscientious job for the people of Holborn & St Pancras. But equally important, he will have the platform to be a powerful voice for the Green movement, and for genuine socialism. He is the *only* realistic alternative to Labour. @greenparty.org.uk

We can win in Holborn & St Pancras But we need your help on the streets to help make history. 💚
