"When people like Kamala Harris send our sons and daughters, our young people, to fight in stupid wars, it is the young generation that carries the burden of that. We're gonna stop sending our young people to far away lands. We are not the policemen of the world."
Today is International Women's Day.
The Green Party celebrates all the incredible women in the Green Party and beyond who are working every day to accelerate action for gender equality.

Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire.
Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines.
Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

30 years ago Spitting Image dared to broadcast the truth about Israel.
Now no one dares.
The truth: we need migration.
The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it.
Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality.
Reject it. Draw the line.
🧵 Farage is whipping up anger against the ECHR with false claims (see thread).
As The Bear brilliantly writes: “The ECHR [is] the foundation that protects you from your own government.”
That's why leaving the ECHR would be a Really Bad Idea.

We hope he's right. Latest polling shows that 60% of the British public want to change the voting system.
But this won't happen without a grassroots movement organising to demand it.

And have they said how many trillion it will cost if we don't reach Net Zero by 2050?
Proportional Representation is about fairness and making sure that who gets elected really reflects what people want.
But it's also about more than that: creating a new kind of political culture where diverse voices can be heard and work together.
Well put, @carolinelucas.bsky.social.

Kenyan #journalist Alvin Kaunda was reporting live from Nairobi when a curious baby #elephant, Kindani, decided to join the broadcast. The playful elephant stuck her trunk in Alvin's mouth, making for a hilarious moment! A joyful reminder of wildlife's charm and the work of the Sheldrick Trust!
Nigel Farage has told ITV News the first thing he would do as prime minister if he won a general election would be to remove the UK from the European Convention on Human Rights
That alone is good reason never to vote for Reform UK.
THIS IS WHY

I've been reflecting some more overnight on the For Some Women Scotland case. 🧵
We've focussed on the big names , Shell , Exxon , BP , but these companies are run by people . People who hide behind those brands to keep their anonymity
These corporations , and their leaders , are committing ecocide & they must be held accountable

The video of Israel using silenced weapons to murder the 15 aid workers who are clearly in ambulances.
These are blatant War Crimes, Israel must be sanctioned and all aid cut off to them now.
Our grandson is autistic and as wonderful a grandson as you could wish for. He is smart, kind, considerate, helpful, holds down a job, and lives in his own flat. I realise there are different levels of autism, but people just need to be kind and patient with them or any other type of person.
✍️ Autistic people: we are people first
This Autism Acceptance Day, see us for our vibrance, not just our diagnosis. We are more than autism – we are colourful, loud, and full of life

Awful scenes coming out of Gaza as Israeli govt announces its intention to seize more Palestinian territory and displace civilians yet again. The UK government is still shamefully complicit. We must stop arms sales, recognise Palestine, and hold those responsible accountable.
