EARTH DAY REAL HOPE. REAL CHANGE. Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ
Good news on Earth Day: 99% of growth in global electricity demand last year was met by solar and wind.
We'll keep fighting the vested interests of the fossil fuel industry and their efforts to spread climate denial to protect their profits.
For people and planet.
Nearly 60k people have signed a petition calling for water to be brought under public ownership.
Water is a human right and resource, not a money extractor for private companies.
It's time we take back control of our water.

'What you get when you vote Green is councillors with two vested interests: to protect people in the community and to protect the planet and the environment.'
@zackpolanski.bsky.social on what you'll get when you vote Green on 7th May.
The @bylinetimes.bsky.social Investigations Editor Nafeez Ahmed tells Adrian Goldberg why the Iran War isn't a re-run of the 1970s oil crisis, but rather a harbinger of energy crises to come, precipitating a collapse in society, unless bold decisions are taken now podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/b...
This is good news, although the most eco-friendly option is still to keep your current car – or, if you need a new one, buy a second hand electric car 💚 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Ciara and Callum quote as co-chairs of the young greens.
WOW.

This is how we make change happen.

Labour’s "build baby build" approach to the housing crisis misses the point. We have enough homes; they’re just unaffordable.
The government should take control over empty properties and turn them into affordable housing that people can actually afford.
RAF recruiters want to make genocide fun for the whole family.
Show up to protect our youth from being propagandised by the war machine – and tell the RAF to sling their Chinook 🚁
LOCAL ELECTIONS 2026 VOTE GREEN FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at 78066, London SE16 9GQ
Today we launch our campaign for the May elections.
Locally and nationally, Labour is cosying up to developers and failing to provide the secure, affordable homes we need.
We deserve better.
On 7th May vote for council homes, rent controls and an end to leaseholds. Vote Green.
So can Reform still be classified as a working-class-oriented anti-establishment party, or have they just given up pretending now?

CALL IT WHAT IT IS: APARTHEID Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ
Israel's new law imposing the death penalty on Palestinians convicted of fatal attacks is a dangerous development of its apartheid system.
It is discriminatory, racist, and cruel.
Expressions of concern are not enough. The Labour government must act to end Israel's impunity.
Buckinghamshire Council has proposed an expansion to High Wycombe's conservation area, and they are welcoming resident feedback.
If you're from High Wycombe, feel free to have a say on how you would like your conservation area to be expanded.

Zack at the Together Alliance
Saturday's Together Alliance march was incredible.
We know that the far-right are looking at the USA - the mass arrests, the political violence, the deportations - and they see a blueprint.
Here's how we stop them:
Together with Together Alliance on Saturday’s March Against the Far Right – the biggest in history 💚
March Together. For Love. For Hope. For Unity. @mothinali.bsky.social it was a pleasure marching with you💚
