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.

This Labour government continues to dance to Reform’s tune.
This is as bad as anything proposed by Reform.

Sickening rhetoric by Home Secretary. Denying access to human rights isn't "protecting the public". This is Labour further demonising those seeking asylum in language very reminiscent of the far right. Yes, some break the law, so should be prosecuted within the law. Removing rights is not the answer

Absolutely appalling. Even the tiniest, simplest measures to protect nature are unacceptable to this Labour government if said measures upset the lobbyists. 🤬
Swifts have declined 70% since 1994.
They fly from Africa to breed here, only to find we've blocked their nest sites.
A £35 swift brick nest box was proposed for all new buildings.
The construction industry lobbied Labour to block it.
Biodiversity sustains life. Labour sustains economic power.

Time to replace them with a party that actually represents everyone - not just the billionaires.
A party that rejects Reform - rather than copies them.

7. In the biggest news, New York City elected Zohran Mamdani as mayor—a rebuke to his opponents’ anti-trans rhetoric and a victory built on an unapologetically pro-trans platform. Just weeks ago, Mamdani released a two-minute pro-trans ad set to transgender artist SOPHIE’s “It’s OK to Cry."
As Some Dems Run From Trans People, Zohran Mamdani's Latest Ad Shows Real Support
The 2 minute ad features Sylvia Rivera's story, Mamdani's commitment to transgender people, and even music from the legendary late trans artist SOPHIE.
