We need to tackle the fossil fuel industry for people and planet, not roll out the red carpet for fossil fuel lobbyists. 🌍

Today we mark Palestinian Independence Day.

Now more than ever, we call for an end to occupation, justice, and a real path to lasting peace.

“Populism, as I see it, is the 99% versus the 1% — the working majority against a tiny elite that has taken our power and wealth.”

His memorial at Shrewsbury Abbey is quite powerful.
On this day in 1918 the parents of the poet Wilfred Owen were just listening to the church bells ringing to announce the Armistice when a telegram boy arrived with the message that their son had died.

People fleeing war and persecution are ready and able to contribute to our society.

The problem is... they're not allowed.

Rather than shipping them off to army barracks all over the country, it's time to let asylum seekers work.

Poverty affects almost a third of children in the UK.

Labour could choose to lift hundreds of thousands of children out of poverty immediately by fully scrapping the two-child benefit cap.

Remember: child poverty is a political choice.

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"

After another magnificent performance by @zackpolanski.bsky.social on Sky this morning, I've renewed my Green membership after it lapsed many years ago. Apart from anything, the Greens have low income concessionary membership at six pounds. With a bit of saving, it's affordable for people like me. ❤️

Elon Musk is set to become the world's first trillionaire. At the same time hundreds of millions starve and live in poverty.

That is obscene.

However, there is hope. The Greens are standing up to inequality. Join us today to stand up too.

Labour were broken a long time ago.

Time to replace them with a party that actually represents everyone - not just the billionaires.

A party that rejects Reform - rather than copies them.

Time to make hope normal again.

Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations!

His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind.

It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.

Today is the 75th anniversary of the signing of the European Convention on Human Rights.

The ECHR is an agreement between nations to uphold the basic rights and freedoms of everyone within their borders.

The ECHR is also something that Nigel Farage tried to have us all abandon last week.
