North Northants Council refuses to back calls for Zane’s Law North Northants Council (NNC) has become the first public authority to refuse to back a proposed ‘Zane’s Law’, says the father of the boy after whom the proposal is named.

Astonishing that the Reform-run administration of North Northants Council refused to back Zane's Law.
Especially as we were in Corby, the 'star' of the Netflix drama Toxic Town.

Stoked to have won the @cyclinguk.bsky.social largest pothole photo competition, with this pic I took of my pal Cllr Emily Fedorowycz lying in a huge pothole in Kettering. 😀

We had to keep dashing into the road with a stepladder and my phone on timer in a fully extended tripod to get the pic! 😅

Polling on 18-25 year old voting intentions. Greens well ahead and Reform are last.

I don’t want to say the words ‘I told you so’ re when the papers were insisting young ppl were flocking to Reform and I, who work with young ppl, said that didn’t seem correct to me, so I’m just going to leave this here…

Zack Polanski became leader of the Green Party just a month ago but has already taken British politics by storm.

Tonight he appears on Question Time alongside a rogues’ gallery of right-wingers.

So where did he come from - and what does he believe? 🧵

Good and bad news for Zack Polanski: the Green conference was a joy, but now hopes are stratospheric | Adam Ramsay Members loved hearing from a leader who boldly reflects their views and isn’t afraid of the rightwing press. How far can he take the party?, says journalist and Green party member Adam Ramsay

🚀 @greenparty.org.uk has grown from 58,000 members in December to 86,000 today.

Six years ago, consistently polling around 2%. Now, above 10%.

Green councillors leapt from fewer than 200 to nearly 900.

Green MPs from one to four.

This is the beginning.

Ramón Méndez Galain, the humble professor who turned little Uruguay into a renewable energy giant

Uruguay proves renewable energy isn’t a dream — it’s a choice.

And it’s entirely doable — if politicians have the guts.

A humble professor called Ramón Méndez Galain showed the so-called leaders of Europe and the US how it can be done. 🧵

Display case showing DASD fuze, used to make cluster munitions work. Display case shows the fuze has been removed.

Paid a visit to the London arms fair today...

Found a component for cluster munitions, banned under international law, on full display.

Confirmed by staff, and removed swiftly by event organisers. But what else remains?

These vile weapons should never be peddled in the UK.

The Great British fear factory: manufacturing a lawless London Reform UK’s “Britain is Lawless” campaign isn’t about making us safer – it’s about manufacturing fear for political gain

Crime is roughly half what it was in the 90s. Britain is still one of the safest countries in the developed world.

So why does Reform want you to think London’s a hellscape? The Bear provides the answer ⤵️

Sharing endorsement videos is always lovely - but even more excitingly, it’s a chance to introduce some of our next generation of Green MPs.

Every time I hear Emily Fedorowycz speak, I feel hopeful about the future of the Green Party & our country.
