I feel like we have daily defection from Labour to Greens now!
And then there were four!

Exciting news 💚

A big welcome to new @nclgreenparty.bsky.social councillor, Alistair Chisholm.

As Alistair says, so many people feel let down by Labour. With Alistair joining the Greens, it makes us stronger as a local party to work together for Newcastle.
Ouseburn ward councillor Alistair Chisholm has announced he is quitting the Labour Party and joining the Greens

It is a political choice to keep children in poverty whilst billionaire and multimillionaire wealth grows larger.

@greenparty.org.uk has today written to the Chancellor urging her to use the next week's Budget to tax wealth fairly, cut bills and deliver real change.

Zack, Carla, Ellie and everyone in the Greens are saying what needs to be said
A Government of cowards.

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.

They can't get away with this.

“It isn’t people seeking sanctuary who are tearing our country apart. It’s toxic, racist narratives and the scapegoating of migrants for crises they did not cause.”

Carla Denyer challenges the Home Secretary's new immigration reforms saying they just fuel far-right narratives.

Mahmood really is one of the absolute worst MPs
Green MP Carla Denyer accuses Shabana Mahmood of trying to "out Reform Reform" and says "toxic racist narratives and the scapegoating of migrants" are to blame for "tearing our country apart" not migrants.

Mahmood: "I couldn't care less what any other political party has to say about these matters"

Having just watched this full video, I have to say this was really genuine, sweet and sincere, and Jordan's empathy towards kids, teenagers, people with drug addiction problems, climate activists and more really shone through
When do you actually just see two men on a screen talking about how much they love their partners?
