Several coaches are travelling from Birmingham to the Together Against The Far Rght protest on Saturday 28 March.

6 years of work on an extremely moderate plan to mitigate car traffic. But some car owners from around the country didn't like that idea and said so in a "consultation," so now it'll be just more and more of this.

I guess the people in charge don't want anyone to want to move here. Who would?

Kings Heath Low Traffic Neighbourhood phase two to be scrapped A Birmingham council report says part two of the Kings Heath plan can't go ahead in its current form.

The Kings Heath and Moseley scheme has always been ambitious and we continue to be disappointed that it has taken six years to get to this point.

The way Birmingham City Council has handled the development & delivery of Moseley & Kings Heath low traffic neighbourhood is beyond contempt. They managed to unnerve both opponents and supporters who had invested vast amounts of personal time in consultation www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The blatant Islamophobia that Keir Starmer is demonstrating through smearing Mothin Ali would be shocking - but it's becoming a pattern.

Smearing a caring man of principle for standing up for peace.

Refugee status to be temporary as Shabana Mahmood rips up rules on UK asylum Home secretary announces 30-month protection limit, with refugees required to leave if their home countries are later judged safe

These plans are cruel and immoral. Refugees deserve to be able to rebuild their lives instead they'll have to live in uncertainty for years.

The Gorton and Denton by-election showed that voters don't like these policies either.

BBC *finally* report on the dozens of Iranian schoolgirls killed — about 32h later.

Excellent statement against the war on Iran by leading British trade union figures.

🥳 Brilliant news! Just as I'm about to head out for some more door-knocking as well!

It took just one phone call from Donald Trump for Starmer to jump into yet another Middle East illegal war, failing to learn the lessons of the tragedies of Iraq, Libya and Syria.

Green party membership in UK passes 200,000 after byelection victory Party leader Zack Polanski says surge in numbers ‘proves that the future of progressive politics belongs to the Greens’

We would actually be negotiating with the union for a start. Labour are refusing to do so. We recently put in an amendment to a motion at council to demand this and they voted it down.

UK will allow US to use bases to strike Iranian missile sites, says Starmer UK will allow US to use bases to strike Iranian missile sites, says Starmer

'The UK has agreed to a US request to use British military bases for "defensive" strikes on Iranian missile sites, Sir Keir Starmer has said'

“Something massive is happening right now”

According to #MattBadloss, at least 12% of the people of Gorton & Denton who voted @greenparty.org.uk are "Islamists", whatever that means, or "woke progressives", ie people who demand respect for human rights, social justice, equity, good community, democracy.

Keir Starmer's attempt to paint the Greens as extremists yet again reveals his intolerance of political difference. His instincts are illiberal and authoritarian.

Now there is hope! It's no longer a choice between grim and grimmer. We can vote for who we want and win. Anywhere.
It's just one constituency, but the Green victory in Gorton and Denton is an electric shock to our political system.

Do you want to help stop Reform here in Birmingham as well as Manchester?

The local council elections are coming up in May and we are standing in EVERY ward in Birmingham - and we need more volunteers to help us defeat the despair and division of the far-right.

I'm not on here too much these days, things have been a little busy 👀🤭

But the love and support I'm feeling on here is incredible. Being a woman, in politics, online is often utterly grim.

So thank you to everyone who has my back. It means the world 💚
