Everything you need to know about what happened at Your Party’s founding conference It wasn't a chilled affair...

My round up of what happened at Your Party's founding conference 👇

My piece in this weekend's @mstaronline.bsky.social about what's underpinning the current rise of the Green Party and why now is the time for socialists to join.

Oxford City Council backs city's minority communities in vote A Green party motion called on Oxford City Council to oppose far right rhetoric.

On Monday, Oxford City Council near-unanimously supported the Green Party motion which made clear our city stands against the far right and against regressive migration policy - from banning asylum seekers from working to scrapping family reunion.

TUC calls for new legal protections for trans people following Supreme Court ruling The motion passed unanimously

Delegates at #TUC25 have voted for a motion which will see the TUC "campaign publicly on its policy for gender self-declaration"

Greens have ‘better aligned values’ with trade unions than Labour, Carla Denyer claims "It's clear that the Green Party and the trade union movement are very strongly aligned in our vision for what needs to change in the UK"

Speaking to me at #TUC25, Green MP @carladenyer.bsky.social said: "It's clear that the Green Party and the trade union movement are very strongly aligned in our vision for what needs to change in the UK"

Exclusive: Zack Polanski wants trade unions to affiliate to Green Party 'The Labour Party as a party of change is beyond dead'

I spoke to @zackpolanski.bsky.social at #TUC25 about the relationship he wants to see between trade unions and the Green Party.

Richard Burgon: Labour leadership ‘will move heaven and earth’ to stop left candidate getting on deputy leader ballot Left Foot Forward spoke to Richard Burgon at TUC Congress in Brighton

Green Party members: I'm keen to hear who you're voting for in the leadership and executive elections.

In lieu of Bluesky having a poll function here is where you can indicate which way you're voting:

Carla is explicitly referred to in the paragraph you've quoted from.

YouTube video by Bright Green Ellie Chowns and Adrian Ramsay: The Green Party needs credible, experienced leadership

Said interview isn't relevant to the piece, but you can see me asking Adrian directly about this multple times here:

Just to be clear, the piece doesn't attribute the Greens' electoral success to Adrian Ramsay over Carla Denyer. It's an article about Adrian, not Carla - hence why I've dedicated a lot more words to him!

I'm not sure what about the below paragraph is 'aggressive', but I'm sure others can draw their own conclusions!

I've also not mentioned Molly Scott Cato in the piece because it's not an article about Molly Scott Cato and she has nothing to do with the central argument.

Adrian Ramsay’s success could be the reason for his downfall Has the Green Party's success under Adrian Ramsay's leadership opened the door to Zack Polanski's more ambitious leadership bid?

A few thoughts on the Green Party leadership election for @left-foot-forward.bsky.social on the eve of voting opening

Carla Denyer confirms she’s not re-standing for the Green Party leadership She's standing down after four years in the role

Big news in Green Party land this morning as @zackpolanski.bsky.social has announced he's standing to be the next Green Party leader
