So they’ve finally recognised Palestine as a state — it’s about time.
What we need now:
Stop selling arms to Israel
Stop sharing intelligence with Israel
Stop participating in the genocide being committed by Israel.
Greens demand boycotts, divestment and sanctions. Stop the killing — now!
How do we fix this mess?
A misogynist, racist, human rights violating, climate denying liar, who happens also to be the president of the US, arrives in Britain for a state visit later today.

No other party says the basic truth: migration is good for Britain.
The real problem? Inequality, soaring bills, underfunded public services.
That’s driven by the greed of the super rich and the Labour government who serve them - not by migrants.

I've been in Newmarket today with Clare Higson - campaigning for Danny Kent in Thursday's election. He's a local fire fighter who cares about his community - he would be a fantastic councillor and is calling out Reform for their weak record in local government. ✊
