It’s the shape of story across all ages and human cultures. You’re in a hole. Then you get out

What would the Green Party do at the Budget?
💡 Cut energy bills by ending profiteering
🚰 Cut water bills by bringing water into public hands
🏠 Give councils the power to control rents
🚸 Lift the two-child benefit cap and extend free school meals to all
Cut Bills. Tax Billionaires.

“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.”
“Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath
Some costs aren’t costs.

Genuine question. What would the Green response be to a financial crash?
Financial markets across the world are flashing red.
The S&P 500 has finally turned down after weeks of irrational optimism. The FTSE 100 is sliding. Gold is falling. Bitcoin is collapsing.
Are we ready for the consequences? I’m not sure we are.

A Government of cowards.
Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.
They can't get away with this.

At what point will Labour politicians, locally and nationally, really start to push back against the endless underfunding of local authorities?
We know what damage this does, and how it will verberate into our futures.
