Just a normal guy who wants to live in a world with more compassion and fewer billionaires. Member of Green Party, and have found my hope again.

They've raised your rent, increased energy prices, and stagnated your wages. The super-rich are exploiting the people of Scotland.

The same billionaires are now bankrolling Reform UK.

We need to tax the super-rich and return power to our communities. #VoteScottishGreens

Desperately looking for anyone in Scotland to foster a 2 year old female cat named Bambi. Incredibly affectionate and friendly. Indoor-only. Whether temporary (a few weeks) or longer term.

She's going to be put to sleep otherwise -- due to a heart issue that won't affect her for another 12 months

Mandatory ID cards. Scrapping jury trials. Calling genocide protesters “terrorists."

There’s a strong authoritarian edge to the Labour Government. With no plan to help people, clearly thrown in the towel in Gorton & Denton.

It's Greens Vs Reform.

Together with cross-party Parliamentarians I have written to the Home Secretary calling on her to accept today's ruling on Palestine Action.

Instead of criminalising those protesting genocide, the govt must examine its own complicity and work to support justice for Palestinians.

Labour’s vote is collapsing everywhere.

In Peterborough last night, as in Gorton and Denton, voting Green is the only way to stop Reform.
Fletton & Woodston (Peterborough) Council By-Election Result:

➡️ RFM: 29.4% (New)
🌍 GRN: 27.6% (+16.2)
🌳 CON: 21.8% (-11.8)
🌹 LAB: 16.8% (-31.2)
🔶 LDM: 4.4% (-0.7)

No TUSC (-1.9) as previous.

Reform GAIN from Labour.
Changes w/ 2024.

A court has ruled that the government's authoritarian ban on Palestine Action was unlawful.

Time to stop criminalising the people protesting a genocide - and start ending the UK's complicity.

UK Dept of Work and Pensions deducted £32.4m from Universal Credit to pay poor people's water bills.

People in the North hit the hardest.

Water companies pay dividends, exorbitant exec pay, fleece customers, don't pay fines.

Now allowed to rob the poor, with full complicity of the state.
Northern communities are bearing the brunt of DWP and water company deductions
The DWP is allowing water companies to go after benefit claimants living in the most deprived areas to collect debt for water bills

We need a UK Digital Sovereignty Strategy!

Our over-reliance on foreign tech giants is a huge risk to our security and resilience when faced with Donald Trump’s ever increasing belligerence.

Companies like Palantir have no place in our critical digital infrastructure.

Nigel Farage has called for an end to working from home and the focus on work-life balance

Whatever you do JUST DON’T VOTE REFORM
🚨Gorton and Denton by-election

Surely by now we can all see that Reform is a party that thrives on division, fuels anger, and uses the scapegoating of minorities to gain support.

We are so much better than that.

DON’T BE TAKEN IN BY THE DIVISIVE POLITICS OF REFORM

Palantir is throwing the MoD a party to celebrate its untendered £240m contract.

It would already be inappropriate for any member of Govt to attend, given what we know about how Palantir has facilitated genocide in Gaza and been complicit in ICE deportations.

Now, it would be unacceptable.
The Green MPs have written to the Cabinet Secretary urging an investigation into "Palantir's vice-like grip on our Government" and the role played by disgraced Peter Mandelson in brokering it.

All contracts with this Trump-supporting spy tech company must be suspended.

Tim Allan may be getting less attention than Morgan McSweeney, but his links raised serious questions - and they’re part of the wider pattern of questionable appointments.

This isn’t really about individuals.

It’s about the state of the Labour Party.

A government enthralled to men and corporations drunk on power is the rot at the centre of the Mandelson scandal.

Of all seven of the Nolan principles, openness can help build back the most trust.

Every MP, like me, should release logs of all lobbying meetings.
