She's joined us because we're the party of hope - with a plan.

Classic it's fine dog character but instead of sitting in a burning room, they have a fire extinguisher and are putting out the flames. The caption reads: "It's NOT fine, and you have a responsibility to act."

We've lost so many third spaces, especially in small towns like Royston.

War is the biggest environmental crime on Earth. Every bomb dropped poisons the air, the soil, and the water. Cities burn, ecosystems collapse, and generations inherit landscapes filled with toxins, rubble, and trauma. War doesn’t only kill people. It destroys the living systems that sustain life itself. In a time of climate and ecological emergency, escalating conflict is a direct assault on the planet and on our shared future. Extinction Rebellion stands against war. Extinction Rebellion stands against ecocide. A livable world cannot be built on endless violence. Peace, justice, and ecological protection are inseparable.

A President and a Prime minister, that both ran on ideas of peace and ending war, working together to set back any progress towards peace in the middle east.

A message we need today

A group of approximately 20 people of diverse ages and backgrounds pose indoors in a blue-walled room. Most are seated or standing while holding up black posters with colorful text that reads, "MARCH FOR LOVE. FOR UNITY. FOR HOPE. TOGETHER" and "LOVE IS BACK." The bottom of the posters mentions a march on Saturday, 28th March in Central London. The atmosphere is collaborative and organized, with pamphlets and bags visible on the tables in the foreground.

A large, dense crowd of protesters gathered in a public square in front of historic stone buildings under an overcast sky. Many individuals are wearing beanies and winter coats. The crowd is a sea of signs and flags; prominent light blue flags feature the "National Education Union" logo, while participants hold numerous black posters with the slogans "HOPE IS BACK" and "MARCH FOR LOVE. FOR UNITY. FOR HOPE. TOGETHER."

A large group of activists stands together in a high-ceilinged hall with brick arches and pillars. In the center, a large purple banner for the "TUC London, East & South East" is held high. Every person in the group is holding a sign, creating a wall of black posters with bold pink and white text reading "UNITY IS BACK" or the multi-colored "MARCH FOR LOVE" design. The setting appears to be a formal meeting or community space, with several people in the front row smiling at the camera.

Organised. United. Ready to fill the streets with hope and unity.

Let’s be clear: if the Palestine Action hunger strikers die, the government will bear moral responsibility | George Monbiot The three remaining hunger strikers have been convicted of nothing. Yet with astonishing cruelty, ministers refuse to listen to their reasonable demands, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

If the Palestine Action hunger strikers die - which they could do at any moment, as they are now very close to the end - it will be the government that killed them. Today’s column explains why. Please share, and write urgently to your MP.

Boycott Eurovision. News clipping from Sky News: Israel allowed to take part in Eurovision 2026 - as several countries withdraw. Scottish Greens.

Once a symbol of unity and hope across Europe, the Eurovision Song Contest has been turned into a pink-washing front for war criminals in Israel.

After today's decision, there must be a global boycott of Eurovision.

Unity is stronger than division.

That’s why we’ve formed Together Alliance with 50+ organisations and thousands of individuals — all pushing back against the far right.

#Together we show where this country really stands.
