Rising rents. Mouldy homes. Foodbanks.
Zoë Garbett is running Mayor of Hackney to change that - with Dylan as Deputy.

My climate emergency motion in 2018 came out of brilliant campaigning by so many Londoners.
It’s great the Mayor responded quickly and positively as that has led to clear net zero targets to which Green AMs continue to hold him accountable. Just five years left!

Our Green motion tonight in Hackney calling to scrap the child benefit cap has been gutted by Labour into yet another ‘no money’ excuse. It’s now just a ‘maybe one day’.

The UK is among the worst nations in Europe for child poverty.
