The devastating consequences of climate breakdown are already here and the UN this week has warned that global warming will breach 1.5°C. Labour's response: pushing ahead with more fossil fuels by approving Jackdaw.

“We need to make the transition as fast as possible, not least because genuinely, the future of our kids depends on this.” Ellie Chowns makes the case for accelerating the transition to clean, renewable energy following Labour's approval of Jackdaw on #BBCQT.

No doubt he has a promising career of crying from major outlets about how he is being "silenced". He chose to cause harm to a student, which misgendering is. Despite Labour's implementation of Section 28 2.0 against trans individuals this should be a firing matter. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Why why why oh why are EmPlOyErS acting like service providers when it comes to single sex spaces and transness. It's bad enough, without bullshit not the law bollocks on top of bad law.

The NHS's revised guidance on single-sex wards is cruel, unworkable and LGBTIQA+ Greens calls on Labour to withdraw it and reform the Equality Act.

Hello. I am a green. I have much to digest and contemplate. I will be doing so slowly, and soberly.

Time and time again when I'm knocking on doors people tell me they've still got their kids living at home with them. The extreme cost of housing is putting lives on hold across this country. We need an emergency brake on rents. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I'm attending a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social event: Members Meeting - Bill McQuire. RSVP here: actionnetwork.org/events/membe...

Join us for the premiere of the Green Party's Autumn Political Broadcast 👇 youtu.be/9Q1h2OsWpWc

📺 Watch our Party Political Broadcast tonight. Tune in on ITV1 and BBC One, or via our social media channels.

This El Niño is a warning. As the planet warms, the risks to communities, economies, and supply chains across the globe become harder to ignore. The answer isn’t more fossil fuels - it’s clean energy, warmer homes, and restored nature.

Octopus farming is extremely unethical and stupid. These creatures among the smartest species in the entire planet, with complex emotional lives. To subject these being to a lifetime of confinement and suffering in barren tanks before a slow and agonising death needs to stop. Please sign this 👇🏼

Putting climate firmly back at the centre of the UK’s political conversation. Zack Polanski tops the Politics & Government section of The Independent’s Climate 100 list.

WOW. Massive thank you to the hundreds of people who volunteered in Holborn & St Pancras. And a huge thank you to @owenjones.bsky.social for joining us! Just getting started. See you tomorrow (Sunday) in Tavistock Square! actionnetwork.org/events/1309-...

Leafleting in my old stomping ground, Camden for @zackpolanski.bsky.social !

Labour has delayed its plans to allow new North Sea drilling until after the Holborn and St Pancras byelection. A Green win on 8th October will add pressure on Labour to reverse this shortsighted and dangerous plan. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

“The climate crisis is very much on the ballot in this election.” Irrespective of the way you usually vote, if you care about the climate, the most powerful way to oppose more North Sea drilling is to vote for @zackpolanski.bsky.social at the coming by-election 👇

It's on. I'm running to be the next Green MP for Holborn & St Pancras. donatetothe.greenparty.org.uk

Green MPs, Peers and Leaders have written to the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero to demand that the Government doesn't approve the Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea. Approving new drilling at Jackdaw will not take a penny off energy costs, and will fuel the climate emergency.

Yummy.

GOOD. Law Project.

Other parties get their funding from their billionaire backers and big business. We do politics differently. If you believe politics should answer to the people, support the Green Party to help us build an alternative. 💚 donatetothe.greenparty.org.uk

It's Day 3 and we've knocked on thousands of doors. The response is already incredible. We can absolutely win this. Join us on Sunday for our huge day out! t.co/gi7awKPvrq

Labour stands up for corporations and big money. I'm running to stand up for people and our communities. www.camdennewjournal.co.uk/article/excl...

The Green Party is, once again being attacked by people who want to force their “gender-critical beliefs” on a party which explicitly rejects them in its constitution. Please contribute to this legal fundraiser to help them defend the party against this pernicious form of entryism.

Good stuff - pls support

Is it "pragmatic" to approve new oil and gas drilling in the North Sea that could cost between £119 billion to £336 billion in climate damage? Sounds more like climate and economic vandalism.

You don't know the half of it Nothing less than a war-footing will have any impact in relation to adapting to the all-pervasive climate mayhem that is coming And even that will barely scratch the surface @chrisgpackham.bsky.social @zackpolanski.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Small businesses are feeling the squeeze whilst large banks are raking in obscene profits. It's time for windfall tax on big bank profits to end rip-off Britain.

Sex Matters say they work to “protect everybody’s human rights”, but they’ve been attacking trans people. We think they're breaking charity law, so we've made a complaint to the Charity Commission. Take action 👇 https://goodlaw.social/anrx

“Those other countries around the world that we currently rely on to produce our food and vegetables, their climates are changing as well" As our harvests worsen and other countries hang on to what they have, we are going to get ever deeper in the sh*t www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Training goals so far bode well.

Lights out and away we go! #Clacton

Really enjoyed Graduation.

Oh

Good stuff, my American friend.

A new poll has just dropped for Greater Manchester. Labour - ⬇️ 25% Greens - ⬆️ 15% Reform - fighting a bin in Clacton 🗑🥊 Sign up to our actions days to help get Geraldine Coggins elected Mayor of Greater Manchester.

As postal votes land on doorsteps, Greater Manchester's residents deserve to know exactly what they're voting for on July 30th. While Labour produce empty cartoon pledges, our fully costed Green manifesto sets out a bold plan for a fairer Greater Manchester. Vote Green on July 30th. 💚

After the "seismic majority" in Gorton and Denton, Greater Manchester is now very firmly in @greenparty.org.uk sights: #GetGreensElected - #VoteGreen. Hope to see you there soon! www.the-independent.com/news/uk/home...

Here's what the landlord lobby don't want you to know: If rents went down by 20%, renters would save £2400 a year. The government would save £2 billion a year. And landlords would still make 4.5 times as much profit as the average business.

We need to take back Greater Manchester from big money - and give it back to the people. Reform have thrown in the towel. And Labour have let people down. Geraldine Coggins has a plan to make it happen. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

You know what to do. Let's make it happen. Join.greenparty.org.uk
