How strong is support for the greens?

New polling shows something is in the air.

It's hope and a plan.

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.

Battle for London’s ancient woods – London Daily Digital

Gorne Wood has become a symbol of a wider struggle over who #London green spaces are for, and whether protection on paper is enough to safeguard them in practice @cprelondon.bsky.social @xrlewisham.bsky.social ldd.news/london/battl...

Developer urged to sell Lewisham woodland to local community Gorne Wood in Lewisham is among 50 parks and green spaces in the capital said to be under threat.

Good to see Lewisham Council finally putting some pressure on the landowner to sell Gorne Wood to the community at a fair price

This comes after I wrote to officers and @lewishamgreenparty.bsky.social met with @fourthreserve.bsky.social at the site 1/2

@lewishamgreenparty.bsky.social brought a motion to council to stand against immigration raids in Lewisham.

@lewishamlabour.bsky.social chose to filibuster instead of protect our neighbours

Everyone in Lewisham deserves safety and dignity

Only @greenparty.org.uk will protect migrants and refugees

Absolutely delighted to share the news that Cold Blow Lane tunnel has been permanently pedestrianised!

Pleased to back my friend & comrade @liamshrivastava.bsky.social to be the next Mayor of Lewisham, our 1st Green Mayor! As a committed antiracist antifascist organiser, his leadership has been an antidote to managed inequality under Lewisham Labour
