I’m backing Ellie & Adrian for The Green Party 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 climate action

Can't believe what I'm hearing. Swift bricks aren't even controversial. They're a cheap, easy way to restore our dwindling bird population. Yet neither Tory Minister, nor Lab opposition, will commit to make them mandatory. What planet are they on?? RSPB Hannah Bourne-Taylor

Coffey's complacency is shocking. Govt's been in power 13 years - not 1 English river is in healthy condition & not 1 meets good chemical standards. Privatisation has failed - put water back in public hands so investment goes where needed #SewageScandal Feargal Sharkey We Own It

Half of England is owned by just 1% of the population. 24 Dukes own 1 million acres of land. The rest of us are shut out of it. Until that changes, we can't ensure that the nature we're blessed with is able to thrive well into the future. That's why we must extend #RightToRoam.

We're heading towards nearly 3C of catastrophic temperature rises. In just 1 year, Sunak has greenlit a new coal mine, the biggest undeveloped oil field in North Sea, & 100+ new oil & gas licences. His Govt is adding fuel to the flames of this emergency. Me on #politicslive 👇

Big 4 bank profits were up 700% in first half of this year compared to 2020, so I’ve just asked the Chancellor to introduce a windfall tax on banks’ excess profits, to fund support for households struggling with energy & housing costs If you agree he should please RT! 🙏

Our constituents are watching tonight as MPs vote on whether to back a full ceasefire. I’ll vote for that ceasefire - to move towards a political solution, stop the killing, free hostages, protect civilians & ensure aid & fuel gets in. We must stand on the right side of history.

In one of the richest countries in the world, nurses, firefighters & many more are relying on food banks. A 1% wealth tax on the super-rich could raise up to £70bn to ensure public sector pay keeps up with inflation. Yet Govt makes political choice not to. Me on #PoliticsLive 👇

For Labour leadership, even talking of rejoining EU is seen as anti-democratic. The Green Party says loud & clear: if rejoining is right for our economy, environment, workers' rights, public services & more, we should do so when time & conditions are right #BrexitInquiry European Movement UK

In 13 years as Green MP, I've called out incompetent Ministers, challenged Government cowardice over #Brexit, demanded more affordable housing, helped secure ban on fracking, stood up for refugees – and always put #BrightonPavilion first. Some of my highlights in Parliament 👇📽️

Please come & help make history at the Gorton and Denton by-election! 💚. We have a brilliant candidate, Hannah Spencer, we have momentum & we know that the politics of hope *can* win over the politics of hate. We can win this! Manchester Green Party 🐝 The Green Party

The majority of the public, Tory & Labour voters alike, want to turf out the profiteering polluters running our water companies - yet only The Green Party has policy to end the legalised scam of privatisation. Predictably the PM had no answers We Own It #Brighton #pmqs

Braverman accuses me of "faux outrage" when I challenge her on shameful lack of safe & legal routes. Trust me, Home Secretary, my outrage is real. What's "faux" is your claim that Govt is treating refugees "compassion" when the reality is this divisive, dog-whistle legislation

The Home Secretary, on the face of this Bill, invites Parliament to rip up international law. The only act of a Parliament that has any kind of moral integrity is to rip up her illegal & immoral Bill, which has no place on our statute book. #StopTheBill #RefugeeBanBill JCWI (Follow us on Bluesky @jcwi-uk.bsky.social)

The mind boggles at the words King Charles was forced to read out in #KingsSpeech today. "This Bill will support the future licensing of new oil & gas fields, helping the country to transition to net zero by 2050" - what?? Time to end this governing by gimmick once & for all.

I’ve been so touched by all your kind messages and the support from people stopping me in #brighton today - from the bus driver to people out & about enjoying the sunshine. Thank you so much - and thank you to everyone who has helped me make a difference 💚 🙏

Minister says water privatisation has enabled "clean & plentiful water". What?? Since privatised, water firms have borrowed a staggering £53bn, much of that to help pay £72bn shareholder dividends - while sewage pours into rivers & seas. Privatisation has utterly failed We Own It

Just heading into House of Commons for #PrivilegesCommittee debate. Any Tory MPs not turning up or abstaining in this debate - one which goes to the heart of defending democratic principles in this country - is guilty of not just cowardice, but complicity in Johnson’s contempt.

Memo to Rishi Sunak - I'm not asking you to take lectures from me. I'm asking you to listen to experts, businesses & the public. They all want bolder climate action, yet you can't even bother to make it a top 5 priority. You're complicit in this #climatechaos. My #PMQ 👇
