Trevor Philips, "What is the implication of the white poppy?"

Zack Polanski, "The white poppy began after WWI, mainly from women's groups, who talked about peace and antifascism"

"So on the same day we remember the fallen, it's also about looking to the future and saying, we want a world of peace"

While the NHS is on its knees, pharma giants are pocketing billions in tax breaks, then slashing UK jobs. GSK alone dodged £3.4bn. That’s 5 hospitals. I’ve signed the petition to end this:

Sign the petition: End the tax break for big pharma like GlaxoSmithKline at the Autumn budget
While the NHS is at breaking point, Britain's biggest pharmaceutical companies are receiving BILLIONS in tax breaks - enough is enough, sign the petition calling for Rachel Reeves to end the tax break...

Keep talking about Sudan. Keep iron your local representatives to act to make sure this genocide ends and that food and aid can get into Sudan!

Southern Water’s CEO, Lawrence Gosden, got a special delivery last week: a giant card and 💩 cake! Why? His pay nearly doubled to £1.4m, despite rules banning bonuses for polluting bosses. Watch and share the news: 38d.gs/fgiw

Zohran Mamdani focused on childcare costs to win the race for New York Mayor, and the UK needs to have the same conversation about how no-cost childcare could help more than just parents.

In the midst of horrific mass killings and violence, British-made military equipment has been found in Sudan.

It's clear our arms export licensing system is not fit for purpose; we need a full review, alongside an embargo on all arms exports to the UAE now.

Keep talking about the genocide in Sudan. Keep putting pressure on the government to sanction the UAE and to bring an end to this horrifying situation.

I have this silly little dream for the Green Party that someone will start a movement to create art inspired by policies.

Like, the policies are great, but tangibly they'll mean something different to everyone.

I wanna see a thousand different visions of the better future we're all fighting for 💚

Good news! The #RentersRightsBill has received royal assent - this landmark legislation will give vital protections to the millions of private renters in the UK. A happy day.

Now it's time to tackle the next crisis facing renters - affordability. That must include rent controls.

Wes Streeting blames the BMA for the NHS’ s struggles, but this article from @thecanaryuk.bsky.social shows his blame is misplaced:

With the RSF taking over El Fasher, the UK must:

- suspend arm sales to RSF-aligned states (including the UAE and Saudi Arabia)
- increase humanitarian aid and diplomatic pressure for a ceasefire
- And support accountability mechanisms for war crimes and genocide in Sudan.

If you claim to be patriotic, you should want to see tax rises on the super rich. Surely, funding schools, healthcare, social care, and libraries in our communities is one of the most patriotic things we can do? 💚

We're all smiling. But we've also got a big job to do.

"Polanski slammed” reports the Daily Express. The person doing that “slamming” is, err, Daily Express journalist Carole Malone.

And the reason? Because I want us to follow a science led public health approach to regulate drug use.
