Final weekend. One last push.

This is about whether you want local plumber Hannah Spencer or the extreme Reform candidate.

It's hope vs hate.

It's Greens vs Reform.

Hope can win.

Reform could gain another MP this Thursday. That's why we're urging Labour, Lib Dem, & other party supporters to lend their vote to the Greens this time in Gorton & Denton. We've carried out extensive research and it points to this being our best chance of stopping a very real threat from Reform.

People of Gorton and Denton, please make hope normal again on 26th February and vote for Hannah Spencer. πŸ’š

Thank God they have sorted out the pension inequality because we wouldn't want women to ever be at an advantage, would we?

We knew who was vital to this country in 2020. How can that be forgotten?

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

The Government is planning to send King Charles to the US to celebrate with Trump. Giving him a royal visit right now sends a terrible message that his behaviour is acceptable. We can stop this if enough of us speak up. Will you add your name to the petition? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ca...

I hope no one here needs this information but if you think you may need some support here are some useful helplines open over Christmas. Take care of yourselves and each other.

I used to work for Waterstones and now for the NHS. I have never had 2 weeks off for Christmas. There are loads of us out there still working in spite of the "big getaway" that obsesses the media.
