Lovely response from local people as we have been going round for @greenparty.org.uk
With @greenparty.org.uk on our highest poll rating ever in the latest YouGov poll the projected result for Huddersfield is a Green Party Gain from Labour.
This is encouraging but a lot of work to do between now and the next General Election to make that result a reality.
@kirkleescouncil.bsky.social failed to apply for a share of ยฃ500m Warm Homes Local scheme
It would have helped local people have warmer homes
I asked the Kirklees Labour Leader why she said the Council would apply for the next funding round when there wasn't one. youtu.be/zIVjejuv0eo?...
@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.

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.

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.

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!

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.
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...
