🚨 The government is preparing a new Elections Bill, promising to strengthen Britain's democracy.
But it currently fails to address the elephant in the room: the voting system.
We're asking the Democracy Minister @samanthadixonmp.bsky.social to fix this.

Hey! I just called on the UK government to scrap anti-protest laws which attack our hard won democratic freedoms. Please can you defend the right to protest too by signing the petition? act.gp/3pIM9ns

Gas companies are mugging us off. They're raking in high profits while our household bills go up, our pubs close down and our high streets hand on by a thread. I've had enough, haven't you? Let's make the UK Government reign in greedy gas for good. act.gp/3JHKh8p

.@TheGreenParty now has more members than ever before. In these dangerous times, people are desperate for a party that speaks truth to power, has courage of its convictions & will take on the far Right.
There's never been a better time to join our movement join.greenparty.org.uk
It's simple, if you throw paint on a plane then you get proscribed and any 80 year olds defending you get arrested.
If you ask people to burn down hotels, and they try, you get an interview in the Telegraph and positive coverage in the BBC.
That's sensible, proportionate policing.
A dog will look you in the eye and let you know when they've had enough. Only a few seconds long, but I'd say he's not ready to give up.

A badger in Northumberland was found dead after being trapped in a snare, struggling in agony. This barbaric practice is still legal in England.
Scotland and Wales have banned it. England must follow suit. Sign the petition:

“Oxfam’s latest inequality report showed that the total wealth of UK billionaires increased by £35mn per day in 2024. Increasing taxes on the super-rich through a modest wealth tax could generate an estimated £24bn a year.”

Those costs won’t magically disappear because the government decides to squeeze eligibility - disabled people already face a disproportionately high risk of poverty. This plan will push even more disabled people into poverty - not into jobs

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

We need a proper ban on hunting! Share if you agree!

Right now, foxes are being chased to exhaustion and torn apart by hounds—all in the name of ‘tradition.’
Boxing Day remains the biggest day of the year for the fox hunting community.
Please RT to raise awareness and follow us to help end this cruelty for good.
I want the sun to shine on me? Too obvious huh?
