The war on drugs clearly isn’t working. We need an urgent review of the 50 year old Misuse of Drugs Act, & to start treating drug addiction as a health issue rather than a criminal one, & get drugs out of the hands of criminal gangs #Newsnight

Making the case for wealth taxes on @SkyNewsPolitics just now.

Honoured to speak at today’s rally in #Nagasaki on 80th anniversary of US dropping nuclear bomb which killed over 70,000 by the end of 1945 & tens of thousand more since then. Shamefully our own Government continues to drive nuclear proliferation, making the world more dangerous @cnduk.bsky.social

I’m backing Ellie & Adrian for @greenparty.org.uk led by MPs with a national platform, a track record of overturning electoral odds & the ability to speak to all - a team committed to bringing the party together, facing down the far right & championing urgent nature & climate action
