So this entire final is going to come down to whether or not David believes Joe and Nick... #celebritytraitorsUK #TheTraitors #CelebrityTraitors

Bristol Labour councillor defects to join Greens Alsayed Al-Maghrabi's defection means the Green Party holds exactly half of the seats at City Hall

πŸ’š Delighted to welcome our new councillor in Bristol!

πŸ₯€ Alsayed is one of 20 councillors to leave Labour & join the Greens this year.

🎀 β€œI will never stop standing up for equality, justice & the right to speak truth to power."

Huge welcome, Alsayed!

Farage's motion on leaving the European Convention on Human Rights failed: 154 votes to 96

All 4 @greenparty.org.uk MPs voted against it, because we believe international agreements on human rights are a good thing.

But only 63 out of 401 Labour MPs did:

I'm less bothered about the lack of whip as there are other ways to keep people on message - I think the other point about making sure the manifesto isn't just everyone's pet policy is a good point though

Bit rich for a party with no policies, no structure, nothing to start acting like they've got the moral high ground here. Oooooh, Zack's not good enough but Adnan is fine is he??

Really disappointed with Zarah lately, feels like she's coming up with policies on the fly to try and justify the party's existence

Ah, okay, still seems like an utterly bizarre move to join a party that hasn't expressed a view on Scottish independence either way, Corbyn and Co are presumably pro-union??

Also who in Your Party supports Scottish independence?? I don't think any of the MPs do??

Green Party leader Zack Polanski holds news conference YouTube video by Sky News

Great to hold a press conference in Swindon this morning to welcome the new Green Party councillor group.

Swindon now has 3 Green Party councillors. They didn't leave Labour - Labour left them!

It's Liberals fighting Social Democrats, which is genuinely fascinating to see..!

Honestly think Zack not having any roots in labourism is an advantage rather than a problem

Yeah, I think Zack has proven that he has a very real and genuine commitment to social liberalism, it underpins everything he says
