Silhouette of a bear in front of a full moon with white text: 

May you find peace in the promise of the solstice night
That each day forward is blessed with more light
That the cycle of nature, unbroken and true
Brings faith to your soul and well-being to you
Rejoice in the darkness, in the silence find rest
And may the days that follow be abundantly blessed

#WinterSolstice

Last night in Leeds, I joined a powerful demo after recent attacks on brown women across the UK.

I almost didn’t want to speak — because it’s women’s voices that need to be amplified. But this had to be said.

If I say Sarah Everard, most people know that name.
If I say Sabina Nessa, far fewer do

Women in support of the trans+ community - Not in our name

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

Zohran Mamdani's victory is a win for mothers. Is the UK ready to follow? Childcare is an election-winning issue, writes Green Party MP Siân Berry for Glamour.

Zohran Mamdani focused on childcare costs to win the race for New York Mayor, and the UK needs to have the same conversation about how no-cost childcare could help more than just parents.

I should say this is a “record” for YouGov. Both Find Out Now and Lord Ashcroft polling have Greens on 17%.

A memorable night ruined by a racist thug.

I was invited to speak at the EuroAsia Curry Awards on Monday night, it should have been an exciting opportunity. But on my way there, outside Earl’s Court station, I was subjected to an Islamophobic hate crime. I have now reported it to the police

‘Change course now’: humanity has missed 1.5C climate target, says UN head Exclusive: ‘Devastating consequences’ now inevitable but emissions cuts still vital, says António Guterres in sole interview before Cop30

Overshooting 1.5°C wasn't 'inevitable.'

We've been pushed by fossil fuel giants & governments that pander to them.

Every delay, every oil field, every broken promise made this crisis worse.

Keir Starmer, will you promise to leave Rosebank undeveloped?

Transphobes don't just hate trans people, but they're generally quite shit - racists, islamophobes, shit politics, that's what they stand for
When I said our fight is one, I meant it, the same people coming after one minority also target others
Legitimate concerns need space, hate doesn’t

It's the green party leader Zack Polanski who bothers him most. Piers Morgan.

According to The Spectator - I’m the person that bothers Piers Morgan the most.

Green membership doubled, record polling & Piers bothered - I’m delighted!

But we're just beginning. Join us to keep the movement growing and keep bothering Piers!

This week I will be hosting a meeting with the Women’s Environmental Network to push for regulation of period products.

Because no one should be exposed to toxic chemicals every month just for having a period.

A small comedy club stage with a microphone on a stand, a few round tables and chairs, and a projection screen displaying the logo “Angela Barnes: Angst” in white and orange. Behind the screen, a colorful mural shows a person in a red and white striped shirt with their hands raised. The setting has dimmed lighting
