NHS staff ARE the NHS!
A message of solidarity with the strikers from @zoegarbett.bsky.social
The erosion of pay and insufficient specialty training places in the NHS is unacceptable - I have heard the impact that this is having on individual doctors as well as the impacts on services provided to patients by the NHS. I previously worked in the NHS as a children's health commissioner and also worked to address health inequalities through NHS health services. I worked closely with a range of incredible clinicians who were working hard to deliver high standards of care. NHS are staff ARE the NHS! Cllr Zoë Garbett AM Green Candidate, Mayor of Hackney Green Member of the London Assembly The NHS wouldn't function without you and you must be treated with the respect, dignity and pay you deserve. The Green Party supports calls for a properly public funded NHS. During the2024 General Election our manifesto pledged £4.6 billion, specifically to tackle pay injustice, including settling the resident doctor dispute and funding a workforce plan designed to recruit and retain staff across the NHS. I know the decision to strike is never taken lightly. We stand in solidarity with you all. Cllr Zoë Garbett AM Green Candidate, Mayor of Hackney Green Member of the London Assembly

Hackney Green Party is horrified by reports of massacres in el-Fasher, Sudan, following its capture by the Rapid Support Force (RSF) - a group accused by the UN of mass atrocities in Darfur. Our hearts go out to everyone affected.
Hackney Green Party statement on Sudan Hackney Green Party is horrified by reports of massacres in el-Fasher, Sudan, following its capture by the Rapid Support Force (RSF) - a group accused by the UN of mass atrocities in Darfur. Our hearts go out to everyone affected. Sudan is facing the world's largest humanitarian crisis: 150,000 people killed, 12 million displaced, and 25 million in urgent need of aid. Humanitarian agencies warn that tens of thousands could die within days without access to food, water and medical care. We are deeply concerned byb credible reports that UK-made weapons exported to the United Arab Emirates have been found in RSF hands. We call on Hackney MPs to press the Government to back UN demands for humanitarian access, enforce the arms embargo, and act now to stop the massacres and deliever lifesaving aid.

Tomorrow I'll be on Laura Kuenssberg.

Will I be able to say "I can announce the Green Party have just overtaken the Tories in members!"?

It's tantalisingly close to happening!

Great to hang out with @carladenyer.bsky.social and @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social folk at the @greenparty.org.uk conference in Bournemouth this weekend

Such a great atmosphere; there’s huge confidence within the Greens at the moment.

I’m now a councillor in Shetland but my political roots are with @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social.

One conference highlight was meeting Dylan Law who’s standing to be Hackney’s next Deputy Mayor.

I spent so many years campaigning in Hackney; meeting talented folk like Dylan makes it all worthwhile!

A “worst-case scenario” famine is unfolding in Gaza according to experts.

The World Food Programme says Gaza needs to be flooded with 'large-scale food aid' to “prevent mass starvation”.

Now is the time for the UK government, and others, to ACT. There is no more time to waste.

A decent home should be the baseline, not the exception.

No one should be worried about eviction just for asking for a working boiler or a mould-free home. Landlord licensing is an essential tool to hold landlords to a higher standard.

Hackney - have your say 👇

🫠 Jon Cunliffe's review into the water sector deliberately left out the option of public ownership.

💸 The only way to stop millions of pounds being siphoned off for huge CEO salaries and shareholder dividends is to end the scam of privatised water.

🤝 Public ownership now.

The proscription of Palestine Action is absurd in the face of this government’s straightforward collaboration with the genocide in Gaza.

They are terrified of how many people are taking to the streets every week in opposition.

This is exactly why we need to keep pushing.

Stop scapegoating migrants.

Once responsible for housing in this country, he could have built more social homes, ended right to buy, brought in rent controls...

The housing system needs a total rethink to become centred on providing truly affordable homes & not landlord profits.
