Great to join fellow Green Party County Councillor and a local Parish Councillor at our surgery in Benson this morning; issues raised included footpaths, community cohesion projects, sustainable heating options and bin collections!!
Doing a Councillor surgery with Green Party colleague from the County Council and a Parish Councillor - 3 levels of local government all in one place 😁💚
I think we should allow Trump to choose Iran’s next leader as long as the rest of us can choose America’s. Because it’s clearly far too important a job to be left in the hands of Americans.
Did you watch Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action! Sick of sewage? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...
Dirty Business on C4 was absolutely brilliant and fucking terrifying. It’s imperative we re-nationalise our water companies otherwise the greedy bastards will kill us all.
Old news!

Ask your MP to attend the MP drop-in on 17th March & hear that message directly from sewage campaigners: actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-...
'Dirty Business' exposed the human cost of profit before public health. Great to see our fabulous @greenparty.org.uk candidate in the last General Election, Jo Robb, featuring in episode 2. Our water system won’t be fixed with tinkering. It needs public ownership.
Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump:
"Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."
Greens always put in the hours!
Wow.
The Green Party aren't just in second place on 21%.
They are FIVE points ahead of Labour.
The Gorton and Denton by-election is convincing Labour voters the Greens aren't a wasted vote.
And they're just 2 points behind Reform!
Clear cynical populism from the LibDems here. Driving has been disproportionately subsidised for far too long already!
Even further and faster than I expected. news.sky.com/story/greens...
sewage in brook.
Abingdon Green Party candidate Aidan Reilly has called on Thames Water to clean up a sewage filled watercourse just south of the town. Thames Water data shows it has been dumping raw sewage into Oday Hill Ditch alongside Peep-O-Day Lane for hundreds of hours in February alone.
Abysmal, immoral, cruel, small hearted, tiny minded, ineffective, undemocratic, and just generally utterly indecent. What a bitter godforesaken disappointment these people are.

Just naked racism from Farage and the Mail.
Only British and commonwealth citizens are allowed to vote. It's not 'stealing' to legally take part in your own country's elections
Horrendous racist accusations from the losing party, amplified by the right-wing media. Straight from the Trump playbook.

Imagine devoting your entire career to selling the idea that the British public hates wokery and is clamouring for radical right wing populism, only to then be defeated in an actual election by the most left wing possible coalition of politicians and activists in the country.
It's got to hurt

Photo of Yusuf at a lectern saying “shadow Home Secretary” (Wot?) Reform's plan for a 'British ICE' combines cruelty with stupidity
Project forward to 2036 under a majority Reform government and the picture darkens further. Britain would be smaller, older and whiter; more isolated from Europe; paradoxically, more vulnerable to foreign interterence and less able to fund its own defence. The welfare state would shrink to a skeleton. Charity would fill the gaps. Flags would proliferate; rights would not. The police and courts would be politicised. The BBC could disappear. The NHS would survive only as a minimal safety net. Protections against discrimination would erode - you might indeed be sacked for being disabled. Migrants and even their British-born children could find their rights curtailed unless they were deemed to "contribute" sufficiently. Meanwhile, the wealthiest would enjoy a generous, low-tax regime.
“Rarely has a British political party unveiled a programme that combines cruelty with impracticality on such an extravagant scale.”
Chilling on Reform’s increasingly confident fascism. High on viciousness and greed. Very low on wisdom. A ruinous combination.

"Nobody over the last quarter of a century has done more to defeat the genuine, intolerant, abhorrent, extreme, far-right than me," says Nigel Farage, as he announces plans for the mass deportation of hundreds of thousands of people and a visa ban on anyone coming from six Muslim-majority countries
How anyone can think this is a positive vision for UK is beyond me. Vote for hope, not hate.
Checking my tickets for our trip to Nice this week via Eurostar and the Intercité de Nuit and excited to find I am in Seat 61 on both legs of the journey 😁. My day is complete @seatsixtyone.bsky.social

Playgrounds would become crack dens if greens were in power policing minister says.
Drug deaths have risen every year for 13 years.
That’s 13 years of a failed “war on drugs”.
Labour should be looking at legalisation, control and regulation - not playing politics with people’s lives.
This is a public health crisis. Treat it like one. Not a game.
