Green Party MP Carla Denyer: 'I’m in politics because I want to make the world a better place' Philip Baldwin speaks with queer politician Carla Denyer about LGBTQIA+ representation in politics, coming out and more.

I once thought politics wasn’t for me. Now, I’m proud to represent my constituents and @greenparty.org.uk in parliament. I told @gaytimes.bsky.social @philipcbaldwin.bsky.social about coming out, my journey into politics & how we can make the world a better place🏳️‍🌈🌍

I will be holding the government's feet to the fire to make sure they get this right, it is delivered at speed, and bill-payers are finally able to properly reap the full benefits of clean and affordable renewable energy.

And the voluntary nature of the proposal raises questions in a crisis-ridden energy market where sellers have the upper hand.

Government has been too slow to act. It is nearly two years since the election - two years in which they could have prevented a crisis like this rather than just respond to it. Households are once again paying the price.

Government to ‘double down not back down’ on clean energy in face of gas spike Key to the plans is breaking the link between gas and electricity prices

As someone who’s been calling for the price of electricity to be decoupled from the high price of gas since 2022, I’m relieved to hear that the Energy Sec is looking to address this. But this announcement deserves two cheers, not a full-throated three 🧵

Brilliant to see local Green Parties like Reading go from strength to strength!

Greens are already the 2nd largest party on Reading Borough Council, and in less than 3 weeks I'm looking forward to celebrating a record breaking number of @greenparty.org.uk councillors here and across the UK 💚

Letter on UK Parliament headed paper dated 16 April 2026, addressed to Energy Secretary Ed Miliband. Green MPs urge him to maintain the ban on new North Sea oil and gas licences and not approve projects like Rosebank, Jackdaw or Cambo. The letter argues new fossil fuel extraction will not lower bills or improve energy security, and says claims about protecting jobs are inaccurate. It highlights that 93% of recoverable oil and gas has already been extracted and that remaining resources would be sold internationally. The MPs warn expanding fossil fuels harms workers, billpayers and future generations, and call instead for investment in renewable energy, warmer homes, future-proof jobs, and making polluters pay. Signed by Carla Denyer, Ellie Chowns, Siân Berry, Hannah Spencer and Adrian Ramsay.

Our MPs have written to Ed Miliband urging him not to backtrack on the ban on new oil and gas.

More drilling won’t lower bills or secure our energy future. It’s time to invest in renewables, future-proof jobs, and make polluters pay.

In 2024, as @greenparty.org.uk co-leader and newly elected MP I pushed for rent controls to be included in the Renters’ Rights Bill, but Labour wouldn’t listen.

This Saturday, I’ll join thousands of tenants, and 50+ unions and grassroots groups, to demand rent controls now.

Cambridgeshire MP to introduce bill to protect UK chalk streams The 10-minute bill is set to go before Parliament on 25 February.

I co-sponsored this bill which aims to give chalk streams UNESCO world heritage status. These important habitats, 85% of which are in the UK, are at risk of drying out. Let’s protect the homes of plants, fish and aquatic mammals🌱🐠🦦

I signed this letter calling on British and Irish govs to take action on Israel’s continued violations of international law. Specifically: 1) the issuing of tenders to build a new illegal settlement in Jerusalem, and 2) the Israeli gov’s ban on international NGOs in Palestine.

I will continue to work with my constituents and local groups to resist the impacts of these policies on migrants, who are valued members of our Bristol community.

Others felt that neither Home Office nor advice agencies are equipped for the current immigration caseload, let alone the additional work that these changes will bring.

There was real concern for the mental health impacts of the government’s inhumane changes to immigration policy, and the ramifications for vulnerable groups, like children and survivors of domestic violence…

I recently met with people from across the immigration advice sector in Bristol – who shared detailed accounts of the harms that will be caused by government’s new immigration policies, and what they could do instead.
