So, this will take 20 years. Liverpool to Hull is 125 miles. For reference, the HST line from Madrid to Seville - crossing mountainous terrain far more rugged than the Pennines, and featuring 31 viaducts and 17 tunnels - is twice as long, at 250 miles. It took two and half years to build.

Alongside many campaigners, the Green Party have absolutely dragged the Labour Government to finally end the child cap.
Labour politicians disgracefully defended it for far too long.
This shows why the Green Party membership rising and rising matters.

Labour think by being "tough", they will win over Reform voters. They seem blind to the fact they come across as pathetic bullies, and drive away millions of decent, fair minded voters. The lack of morality from Labour is genuinely upsetting, and one of the reasons why I joined the Greens.

Labour is no longer the party of trade unions or the NHS. It's time for unions to stop funding them and for voters to vote Green, to actually support a properly funded and staffed NHS.
NHS staff still earn less than we did in 2010.
