Starmer must go.

Graphic with pipes dumping sewage in a river and overlay text: "Sign the Petition: Hold a Referendum to bring the water industry into public ownership
Most of us want to see our water back in public hands, but never actually had a say.
That’s why I’m backing the Sewage Campaign Network’s petition for a referendum on water ownership.
Let’s reach as many people as we can: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/76...
The UK must immediately and unequivocally suspend support for the US military.
The Government have tried to appease him, then they tried to say they're standing up to him.
Words aren't enough - it's time for action.
“His people aren’t us… his people are the wealthy elite.”
@mothinali.bsky.social cuts through Farage’s ‘man of the people’ act.
There are definitely certain challenges but for a party that has always embraced democratic, member-led politics, I think it's a challenge most are up for.

".. they had a cosy relationship with the water industry"
Robert Forrester, Environment Agency whistleblower, explains why the agency downgraded 98% of serious pollution incidents by the water companies to minor incidents #GMB
We live in Rip Off Britain.
We have to lower people's bills and tax wealth fairly.
This morning I'll be starting to lay out our vision of how to do this.

I helped with door knocking in the by-election. The instruction for us all was to listen. We weren't running through a list of policies, but asking what mattered to residents (mostly local issues). But don't let that get in the way of this poor faith attack.
Really sad to see you join in the tired attack line from right wing politicians (and those in labour who ape them for votes). Social justice and climate action are entirely connected. This just comes across as "stay in your lane" - not a great look.
So sorry this has happened. Looked like an important and beautiful building. Glad everyone is safe though ❤️
The Representation of the People Bill contains some useful measures, but it must go further – put proportional representation on the statute books, shut loopholes that let dark money in, and modernise media platform oversights to stop misinformation and disinformation.
Noooooooooo! And I haven't even eaten a beefsteak tomato yet. Pray for me. I guess i'll console myself with some plant based tubes and mash.
A few days ago we announced 200,000 members.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social letters to the "soft left🧐🤣" labour leaders are 🔥
You just know she's gonna keep getting things done. 💚😍
The choice is stark. Reform are the party of foreign wars and high bills.
The Greens want de-escalation and energy security through renewables. Solar and wind prices don't fluctuate when rogue US presidents launch illegal bombing campaigns.
Absolutely love this team. Go in there and smash it! Good luck! 💚
At this point, maybe we could bring back the lettuce. Would last longer and draw the UK into fewer (zero) wars?
The leaflets were focused on proving greens were the vote to prevent reform. Doorstep conversations were more local issues and anger at labour/fear of reform. More detailed policy angles featured in the 3 hustings that Hannah took part in.
Legalising and regulating drugs is about reducing the harm and deaths caused by drug use, and treating addicts rather than criminalsing them. It is appalling that Labour and Reform are playing politics with people's lives.
Great point. I can entertain concerns about the content of videos but the complaints of a non English video - would anyone have complained about a video in British Sign Language or Welsh?
Keir Starmer: the Greens are extremists
The Greens: we want people who work hard to have a nice life.
The absolute best. Wish I could bottle this feeling. Well done Hannah, and all the volunteer team.
Dear Lucy Three weeks ago you wrote me a bizarre letter in an attempt to hold on to voters who Labour have for too long taken for granted in Gorton and Denton. First, I’d like to give my apologies for the delay in getting back to you. I've been busy on the ground with Hannah Spencer talking to voters about the issues that matter to them – lowering bills, protecting the NHS and rebuilding our public services. You'll appreciate most of your letter is out of date now, but I'm sure you'll have seen the poll that came out today, that puts us in first place and Reform in second. Labour are a distant third and it’s now clearer than ever that your party cannot win in Gorton and Denton. If you are as concerned about stopping Reform as you proposed in your letter, the course is now clear: in the spirit in which you wrote to me, you should now urge your members and former voters to back Hannah Spencer on the 26th February to stop Reform and make hope normal again. Kind regards, Zack Polanski Leader of the Green Party of England and Wales P.S – Hannah looks forward to saying hi in Parliament!
Dear Lucy Powell,
A response to your letter:
This is very surreal - and massively appreciated!
Join the Green Party.

It's been a bit weird seeing my old home town of Denton in the national news so much. As a child, I grew up in the Dane Bank area until the age of 10 and we had strong family connections to here. My grandparents lived most of their lives there, having bought a 1930s semi there from new 🧵
If you need your faith in politics restoring, watch this, I implore you 🥰
Absolutely beautiful podcast with Zack Polanski and Hannah Spencer
We need real people representing us in parliament 💚 💚 💚
This one is a battle for the soul of the nation
Says the gazillionaire who loves Britain so much he became tax resident in Monaco so he didn't have to contribute to Britain's resources. Physician, heal thyself.
