From the Green party to Corbyn’s new launch – is it time Westminster took joint leaders more seriously? Strong leaders in business are often those able to allow others in their top team to share responsibility.

As Stefan Stern says, real leadership is collective. Joint leaders bring the skills, experience and perspective no one person can. We agree - and we’ve proved it works. Vote Ellie & Adrian βœ…

Green party members elect new leader: who are the candidates? Whichever candidate emerges at the helm of the Greens will have a defining influence on the shape of any future left-wing alliance.

A group of leading economists is urging Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves to introduce a wealth tax to tackle extreme inequality.

The Green Party has consistently called for a fairer tax system.

Time for Labour to make some different political choices and tax the super-rich fairly.

β€˜Climateflation’ could push up UK food prices by more than a third by 2050, report says Exclusive: Increasingly extreme weather a threat to production and supply chains in Britain and elsewhere

Hotter, drier summers are already reducing our harvests. A new report shows climate breakdown could push food prices up by over a third by 2050, forcing a million more people into poverty. We can’t look away. The government must treat climate breakdown as a national security threat.

Green Party Hopeful Hits Out At Rival's Eco-Populist Pitch With Farage Comparison Writing for HuffPost UK, Adrian Ramsay issued a bleak warning against populism.

Populist politics seeks to polarise & divide. But that's not the way for the Green Party to build broad support for transformative change - and to sustain and further build our exponential growth in election wins.

What happened in Diss last night was wrong. Groups from outside our community came here to create fear and division. That is not who we are. Diss is a town rooted in compassion and decency. We have a long and proud history of offering sanctuary to those fleeing persecution. People have a right to seek asylum in our country, and they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, as we would wish to be treated in times of crisis. 

We have had an asylum hotel in Diss for two years without any issues. The families staying there have become part of the local community, with many of their children attending local schools. However, late last week we were informed that these families would be told to leave the hotel at short notice.  I am frustrated by the lack of communication from the Home Office to the families and to me as constituency MP, and I have raised my concerns with the Minister. 

 We must reject division and focus on what unites us. I will keep raising questions with the Home Office and work with the town and district councils and local community groups to ensure everyone is treated with respect. Together, we will welcome new arrivals and show what I know Diss to be: a compassionate and inclusive town that helps everyone feel part of our community.

Peggy’s right β€” if we’re serious about influence in Westminster, we need leadership that knows how it works and how to win.

We’ve come too far to risk our credibility now.

Reform is showing themselves to be the political voice of the vested interests of big oil and corporate profit. - Green Party β€œIf Reform ever had a mask, it has now well and truly slipped.

Reform is the political mouthpiece for big oil and corporate profit.

Neither Andrea Jenkyns nor her party grasp basic climate science. It's not a surprise when they've taken Β£2.3 million from fossil fuel interests, climate deniers, & major polluters since 2019

This month we've seen more heatwaves.

Temperatures will keep rising unless we stop burning oil and gas.

The government can't claim to care about our future while backing new fossil fuel projects. That is why @UKLabour must stop new oil & gas extraction, starting with Rosebank.

I'm so pleased to see this. I got into politics at 16 & joined the @greenparty.org.uk, campaigning before I could vote.

I've long called for votes at 16 because young people need to have a say on the future of our country and the world.

250,000 children were pushed into poverty because of the 2-child benefit cap.

I plead with Labour MPs to do the right thing, follow on from Kinnock & Drakeford and back a wealth tax for the super-rich so we can fund support for the most vulnerable.

Dear Keir - following #PMQs today, a reminder of the letter we you sent last week after you repeated false claims about the Green Party's manifesto. Unlike Labour and the Conservatives we were honest about the need to raise taxes on the wealthiest to fund the services we all need.
