Judge asks Kirklees Council for more information over privatisation of dementia care homes - Huddersfield Hub Campaigners took the council to a judicial review and a judge was presented with more than 900 pages of evidence

@kirkleescouncil.bsky.social shouldn't pursue any arrangements with a private care provider until the Judicial Review is completed.

The Council needs to respect the legal process that is underway.

The case for privatising the homes has not yet been made.

Great to see on BBC Politics North a Green Win in the Huddersfield Constituency being predicted in yet another poll at the next General Election.

Lots to do in Huddersfield before that but good news in what is largely a gloomy time for people in the UK.

@kirkleescouncil.bsky.social Labour Leader responding to my question on why the Council didn't apply for Govt funding to insulate local peoples homes.

Apparently there is a really good reason but she can't tell us what it is!

I was one of the @greenparty.org.uk nominees to the House of Lords in the last Parliament

I will not be seeking reselection in the Party's current process.

Instead I will focus on helping ensure Huddersfield elects a Green MP at the next General Election.

It is absolutely bonkers that there are plans to fill in Queensbury Tunnl when it could be made a safe accessible cycle route.

@westyorkshireca.bsky.social funding should be used to support this project.

Could a Green prime minister be in the UK's future? Green Party leadership contender Ellie Chowns spoke to the Big Issue about why "eco-populism" isn't the way forward.

"The Greens are a political party whose time absolutely has come. In fact, it’s overdue."

Having won one of the biggest electoral swings in British political history last year, I know how we can win voters over!

Green Party members. Still time to vote for Ellie and Adrian in the Leadership Elections

Putin should be arrested & surrendered to the International Criminal Court as soon as he lands on US soil.

That should have happened when Netanyahu landed on US soil.

They both know they are safe with a convicted felon sitting in the Oval Office.

International Law sadly has no status in the USA

Fantastic to be here in Cardiff, with @elliechowns.bsky.social and so many amazing Greens, on the road to a Senedd breakthrough and helping get Matt Youde from Grangetown elected

London heatwave killed 263 people – with climate crisis to blame for most, study says Study finds around 1,500 of the 2,300 estimated heat deaths in Europe during recent weeks were the result of the climate crisis

Last month’s #heatwave killed hundreds in the UK – & we’re now entering the 2nd heatwave of the summer.

The climate crisis is here & now – & we need to do much more both to build resilience to its impacts & to cut the emissions that are driving it.

Labour, Tory and Reform stands at Local Government Association Conference.

Always suspicious of parties that mix politics with patriotism.

Politics should be about ideals, ideas and implementing them.

No flags required!

It's amazing to see so many people turning to the Green Party as their political home. Please join us if you want real hope and real change!

We have a leadership election coming up in the @greenparty.org.uk It’s a strong field, but for me the future of our party clearly sits best in the hands of @elliechowns.bsky.social & @adrianramsay.bsky.social, who have shown how to win & use power to secure positive change #TogetherWeWin

They said we’d never win a second seat. We proved them wrong — and then won four. 🌱
I’m proud of every Green councillor and campaigner who made that possible.
Now let’s go further. Let’s win far more — together.

I asked David Lammy a direct question. His response did little to reassure me.

I've written to him demanding clarity and have asked him to guarantee that any further potential military involvement in the Middle East will be subject to a free vote in Parliament.

I would make the Green party a force at the heart of British politics. That’s why I’m running to be co-leader | Ellie Chowns Adrian Ramsay and I are lifelong campaigners who know how to win elections.

The power and hope of activism must go hand in hand with electoral nous to win the change we need at the heart of our politics. Here's why I'm standing to co-lead the Green Party: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Wow, what an inspiring day! The biggest ever Green Party action day.

Brilliant to be building on the huge successes we've had in Suffolk and Norfolk and to be ready for the next big elections to come.

Thanks so much to everyone who was part of it

Thanks to Jonathon Porritt for backing us as the leadership team this moment demands.

Climate. Justice. Fair taxation. Peace.
We’ll lead with purpose — and never back down.

Screenshot of a Guardian news article titled: "Greens claim planning bill 'dangerous', as former Starmer adviser says it will make nature protection more 'impactful'". The article reports that legal analysis of a UK planning and infrastructure bill could endanger over 5,000 protected nature sites. A highlighted box states: "Revealed: 5,000 English nature sites at risk under Labour’s planning proposals". Green Party co-leader Adrian Ramsay is quoted calling the bill dangerous, warning it gives developers a licence to bulldoze nature while failing to address housing affordability. The article notes that around 24 Labour MPs may seek amendments to strengthen environmental protections.

With nature in crisis we desperately need to enhance legal protections. Labour is planning a catastrophe – failing to deliver the affordable homes needed to address the housing crisis & weakening environmental safeguards so that greater profits can be leveraged from the devastation of nature.

Really pleased the government has listened to my and others' long-standing campaigning and will require solar panels on all new homes—a no-brainer policy. Now we must go further: ensure new homes have proper insulation, flood resilience, and protection from overheating.

We've reached £10k on our Crowdfunder to repair The Newsome Centre vestry roof.

25 days to raise £5759 to hit our target.

125 people have backed us so far. We're nearly 2/3 of the way to hit our target

If you can get us closer, it would be really appreciated.

Green MPs and other parliamentarians outside the House of Commons protesting against war crimes in Gaza.

The Israeli government’s war crimes in Gaza must stop & the UK must end its complicity. Proud to support Red Line for Palestine around Parliament today. Green MPs are pressing our government to immediately enact a full arms embargo & sanctions.
#StopArmingIsrael

We’ve doubled our councillors. Quadrupled our MPs.
We’re winning where they said we couldn’t.

But to keep fighting Labour’s cruelty and Reform’s hate, I need you with me.

Adrian Ramsay championing chalk streams with Norfolk Wildlife Trust.

Britain's precious chalk streams are globally rare and ecologically vital, but only 11 of 220 are protected.

With excessive abstraction and persistent river pollution, we need bespoke protections for these fragile rivers.
