Dubbed the Yorkshire Mamdani by Peter Oborne.
We need real grassroots community activism, people from within the community standing up to make change, bussing in activists from outside is not a sustainable approach!
People that speak the language, communicate on a level, part of their community!

Green Party stands in solidarity with those seeking asylum - Green Party Ahead of more planned demonstrations this weekend outside hotels housing asylum seekers, Green Party spokesperson on Policing and Domestic Safety, Amanda Onwuemene, said: โ€œThe unrest we are seeing out...

The unrest we are seeing outside hotels housing asylum seekers and in our communities is unacceptable. The protests are the result of the deliberate spread of myths and lies about asylum seekers and refugees and are being stoked by far right

Today, 6th August 1945, the US dropped the bomb on Hiroshima, then on Nagasaki on the 9th of August 1945.
We have to learn from history!
We can never repeat these tragedies.
We can never repeat these horrors.
WE need more energy into the campaign for nuclear disarmament โ˜ฎ๏ธ

There are some people who know the cost of everything and the value of nothing! How do we teach future generations about gardening and growing things ( and how easy it is!) without allotments ?
Tragically, not everyone has a garden or balcony.

โ€˜This is what a councillor is supposed to doโ€™: Mothin Ali on false accusations of rioting The Green party councillor for Gipton and Harehills in Leeds was accused by the far right of taking part in rioting when he was trying to calm tensions

I voted for @mothinali.bsky.social for deputy leader. He doesnt get enough credit for calling for calm during last summer's riots. We need people like that in our party

The threat to Allotments should be taken very seriously, for many Allotments are the only access to land
We should all have a right to land, to grow and to flourish. These proposals will have a disastrous effect on people's physical and mental health, increase food prices

They're right to be angry, but they're angry at the wrong people, the government, the elite, they're the ones we need to hold to account

There is no immigration crisis. Our successive governments are either bombing or aiding in the obliteration of countries in the Global South, then whipping up racist hatred against those very victims. The problems are what the rich are doing to the poor.

Speaking with an 'auditor' on Friday's protest against the far right at the Britannia Hotel in Seacroft, Leeds.

We're going to keep coming out until all our communities are safe.

I'm not a massive fan of test cricket (prefer one dayers), but the courage Chris Woakes displayed has to be admired. To come out one-handed is truly courageous!
Well done, England, Mohammed Siraj just worked his magic a little too well!

I won't sign pledges for any of the special interest groups, I've explained a number of times, I don't agree with pledges done for internal lobbying, we have a manifesto, we have policies and a constitution agreed by all members, that's what I stick to.

Back out in Harehills today handing out our information leaflets.
We'll keep going until we see some changes.
Also paid a visit to a number of local businesses, especially the staff at Greggs, to see how they are after their recent troubles.

Today on Samudaripen (Romani Holocaust) Remembrance Day, we remember and honour all the Roma and Sinti who were murdered by Nazis. Never forgotten.

We should take the lessons from history and stop it from being repeated, as it currently is in Gaza, and do everything we can to stop it

We are looking for people to become our next Members of Parliament. Who will win back the trust and engage on social media?
The Green Party has a chance to reach out to areas like Grimethorpe, Goldthorpe, Cudworth, Thurnscoe, West Melton, Wath White Bear, Brampton. No one left behind.
