Remembrance services this year are especially poignant as we commemorate 80 years since the end WW2 and the brave fight against fascism in Europe.
Thank you to Andy Browning minister at St Peter's Baptist Church for conducting the County Council Remembrance Service.
I laid a wreath on behalf of the council and Patricia Jones laid a wreath on behalf retired members of Unison.

You can't solve a crisis with the same thinking that caused it
Billionaires and corporations are driving climate breakdown. It’s time to tax their wealth and build a fairer future.

Moving service at Worcester Cathedral this morning. Extremely poignant moment occurred where three faithleaders came together literally lighting a candle at the same time one hand on top of another.
Special mention too, for The Right Reverend Martin Gorick, Acting Bishop of Worcester's timely sermon

Wow.
The Greens are not just SECOND in this poll.
They're now 3 points ahead of Labour - who are fourth.
Time for Labour to stand down to stop splitting the anti-Reform vote!

It's amazing how much of a difference the congestion charge in Oxford has made. The roads are much quieter, it's so easy driving around the city centre now and being able to keep to time. My job has become less stressful.

This morning the Chancellor spoke of difficult decisions for everyone but the ultra-rich.
It’s time to tackle the cost of living crisis, end child poverty and invest in our vital public services by taxing extreme wealth fairly.

In Worcester our membership has topped the 400 mark and the numbers are still rising. That’s the power of great policies, great people and a message of hope!
“People are rejecting the old party politics…but they know they don't need to go to the politics of hate and division. The politics of hope is where it's at.”

So relieved to hear that the heroic rail staff member who risked their life to protect others is reportedly in stable condition.
Huge admiration to them for their courage in the face of this terrible attack, and to the emergency services for their swift response.

Farage's motion on leaving the European Convention on Human Rights failed: 154 votes to 96
All 4 @greenparty.org.uk MPs voted against it, because we believe international agreements on human rights are a good thing.
