There is now a fragile ceasefire in Gaza, but 80 Palestinians have already been killed by the IDF.
Gaza must be rebuilt for the Palestinian people, the occupation of the West Bank must end.

⚠️Bold Politics: How National Budgets Work⚠️
So worth a listen for plain language explanations of how national budgets work, how wealth taxes can help, & how reducing inequality can benefit us all.

🚨Responses Needed!🚨
Barratt Homes are running a consultation for their propsed Corssings Road development in #Chapel-en-le-Frith. We're asking supporters to leave their comments to protect naure, & demand brownfield-first developments & affordable housing.
#AffordableHomes #BuildSustainably
Access to politicians. Just being that wealthy gives you a seat at the table with pretty much anyone you like.
Abolish landlords! Sounds a bit dramatic right? But this is what we voted for at conference last morn. Let's unpack this >>>
The abolish landlords resolution aims to reduce the private rental share, significantly expand council housing. Council housing should be widely available to all - not just for those in desperate need.
How will it work? Introduce national insurance on rental income, as well as land value tax on property owners. End buy to let mortgages to reduce financial incentives for private landlords. Give councils right to buy when private landlords sell. Transfer housing stock to public ownership. Give tenants the right to buy their homes, with rent paid discounted from the purchase price & government backed funding. Abolition of right to buy to protect council housing stock. Create a state owned housing manufacturer to build quality homes.
Green party logo. We believe that secure, affordable homes are a human right. We would aim to create 150,000 new social homes annually through building & buying private stock. Transition would be a phased approach, managed sustainably. New homes should be built to high energy standards, & older homes retrofitted. New homes should integrate community benefits.
🛑Abolish Landlords!🛑
It’s a dramatic headline, but behind it is a fair, practical plan to provide affordable housing for all.
Here's how it works👇
Update: 128,000.

Image of solar panels on a roof, & a green field. Text reads: rooftop solar panels could cut bills & protect our green spaces. Solar farms can damage biodiversity. Why not start with leisure centres, car parks, all new build homes. Put an end to wasted space!

Derbyshire County Council just rejected plans for five new solar farms. We agree that green energy shouldn’t come at the cost of nature.

Could you explain a bit more about what you mean by that? Do you mean we're giving them publicity? I'd like to understand your position a bit better.
A piece treaty is not the end. War crimes have clearly been committed, rebuilding needs to be done.
Solidarity with the victims of genocide.
Interesting discussion on how the Abolish Landlords policy will work. We have around 900 empty homes in #HighPeak, as well as huge competition from holiday home owners. This will help.

On #BBCQT - Fiona Bruce said that the audience and public didn't want to press Reform UK on their dodgy links to Russia.
I disagree.
RT if you agree it's in the public interest for Reform to explain about their links to Russian money and bribery!
Zack you are on point!
