Gaza death toll in early part of war far higher than reported, says Lancet study Research suggests more than 75,000 killed in the first 16 months of conflict, 25,000 more than announced at the time

Gaza death toll in early part of war far higher than reported, says Lancet study.

There are no excuses.

It was obvious at the time that Israel was engaged in the mass slaughter of civilians.

The guilty men and women will pay the price.

National Action Days - Green Party Now is the time to get involved and get Greens elected. See below for action days across the country and sign up now to be part of a winning team.

When I ran for leader, I said we're going to make the Labour Government more worried about losing seats to the Green Party - than to Reform.

We're making this happen in Gorton & Denton. This is about our country.

Volunteer in the next 9 days!

In a pretty grim decision - with one very considerable silver lining - the High Court has dismissed our challenge to the EHRC Interim guidance.

A number of resources follow in a 🧡.

I am pleased the Government has done another u turn.

Attempting to cancel elections, on top of scrapping jury trials, mandatory ID cards, criminalising peaceful protest and harassment of journalists is part of a disturbing authoritarian trend of this caretaker Prime Minister.

More proof that Reform UK can't keep its grubby little fingers out of the Russian money-pot.

And this particular man is up for election in #GortonandDenton in 10 days' time.

Show him the door.

Reform are always obsessively challenging others to debates.

But my invitation to debate Nigel Farage - leader to leader - still hasn’t been taken up.

What are they running from?

The Green Party will stop Reform.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social: β€œThis is more confirmation that Reform and Goodwin are not just part of an extremist anti-British project,” Polanski said, β€œbut are also enriching themselves on foreign far-right money.”

A new study warns UK winters are becoming significantly wetter β€” with rainfall rising 7% for every degree of warming.

Yet Reform dismiss the scientific consensus and want scrap action to stop the climate crisis.

Zack Polanski says Labour has 'thrown in the towel' in Gorton and Denton Speaking to the Manchester Evening News, the Green Party leader believes Hannah Spencer represents 'the future' for Gorton and Denton

Mandatory ID cards. Scrapping jury trials. Calling genocide protesters β€œterrorists."

There’s a strong authoritarian edge to the Labour Government. With no plan to help people, clearly thrown in the towel in Gorton & Denton.

It's Greens Vs Reform.

Zack Polanski says Labour Party is β€˜over’ after taking β€˜votes for granted’ The comments come ahead of the upcoming Gorton and Denton by-election with the Greens and Reform UK looking to take the seat from Labour

Labour are done.

And Reform offer no solutions - their extreme division will just make things worse.

The Green Party want to lower bills, protect our NHS and rebuild our public services.

Hannah Spencer, our local plumber, for the win! πŸ’š

Reform politicians are happy to throw insults from a distance.

But when it comes to debating their ideas? No show.

Richard Tice pulled out.
Farage won’t face me.
Now their candidate in Gorton & Denton has ducked our candidate Hannah Spencer.

Vote Green.

This must mean all prosecutions are void ,there has to be a law prohibiting a government from selling arms to a genocidal regime . These messages are an admission of complicity at the very top of government.
Hopefully will lead the way to prosecuting the real criminals.

If we had a functioning media in this country, political journalists would ask Wes Streeting:

"Given you long ago concluded Israel is committing war crimes, does that not mean you must think your government is facilitating war crimes?"

They'd specifically note F-35 components.

Β£240m. With no tender. Palantir.

I wrote to Wes Streeting last week demanding answers.

Every day without any transparency deepens the scandal.

Palantir out.

Wes Streeting privately said Israel committing war crimes, backed sanctions on 'rogue state' The British health secretary privately admitted last year that the Israeli government 'talks the language of ethnic cleansing'

Wes Streeting has admitted that Israel is committing war crimes.

In doing so, he has admitted that his government has broken the law.

The government is legally obliged not to sell combat aircraft components to states committing war crimes.

As Starmer implodes, which commentators are on TV explaining why it's all fallen apart?

The same pundits who cheered him on the first place and thought he'd be a brilliant prime minister.

Shameless all round!

Morgan McSweeney and his downfall reveal what the Starmer project always was.

A project defined by kneeling before wealth, seeking power for its own sake, ridding Labour of any principle or morality.

It is an irredeemably corrupt project which was always doomed.
