I feel hopeful that people as smart, articulate and kind as Jordan are committed to empowering the next generation.

Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations!
His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind.
It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.

"Polanski has blended anger with hope.
โHope is much more difficult to sell than outrage, but heโs finding a way to do it that connects with people.โ
Let's make hope normal again!

Time to join a movement that is ready to take the fight to the established parties and provide an alternative that makes hope normal, that puts people and planet first.
No more waiting around for a saviour, we have to do the work ourselves, so what are you waiting for

Racist #Trump caps refugee admissions at record low - with most to be white South Africans. Hopefully #AndrewWindsor will now be forced to testify and bring this whole pile of disgusting cards down.

As long since observed, if corporations were human, we could rightfully regard them as dangerous psychopaths.
Stop expecting these entities to do the right thing. We either regulate them better or they behave like this.
Not sure about these "what will happen if my dad takes up Thai Chi tomorrow" adverts on YouTube. Considering he died a few years ago, I would be astonished.

Hydrogen from a biomass plant via a private wire might look โgreenโ on paper โ but it just diverts power from the grid, which is then backfilled by gas. Clean accounting, not clean energy.

Developers to get subsidies if they include 20% affordable housing instead of current 35% target.
