Greenwich Greens out door- knocking in Greenwich Park Ward today. Our candidates Karin and Stacy have a proven track record of working hard *all year round*. Do you want just more Labour who’ve been in charge since 1971 or do you want change? Join us! join.greenparty.org.uk

The Green surge shows British politics has reached a turning point - and it has surprisingly little to do with Zack Polanski | Aditya Chakrabortty
At a party event in a school hall in Lewisham, people told me how disillusionment with Labour has led to this moment, says Guardian columnist Aditya Chakrabortty

Pleased to see the jury make this decision.

We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries.

People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover.

Greenwich Greens were out in Greenwich talking to residents. Much discussion about poor response to housing repairs, fly tipping and a poorly maintained public realm.

Today I spoke with residents on the Orchard estate in Greenwich. They expressed frustration over the pace of repairs services including poor cleaning of communal areas and lifts. They say they pay their rent & deserve better. I’ve been visiting this area for a few years & no improvement here 👇

This is a truly horrifying account of increasingly likely collapse of essential natural systems which would bring mass food shortages, price rises & global disorder. Commissioned from UK intelligence chiefs but scandalously suppressed by Govt, & sneaked out now while attention is elsewhere 👇

Filled with hope and energy after a morning out with @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social and new @londongreenparty.bsky.social members Cynthia and Flick (sadly no photo) campaigning for @zoegarbett.bsky.social for Hackney Mayor. And great to see Rachel who will make a wonderful councillor.

Thousands left without water in the middle of winter in the UK. And those same people are now facing a massive bill hike.

Privatised water is a scam.

I've written to the Prime Minister asking why he won't end this rip off and bring failing South East Water into public hands.
