Hull & East Riding Green Party

There was promise of 700 jobs here. Can’t imagine, with this news, it’s going to be even half that

Unprecedented numbers of new members signing up. There’s still time to join and vote in the leadership (and other elections)

This is the very least we must do.

Solidarity…

Wasting an opportunity like this to boost walking, wheeling and cycling (and the local economy), while announcing massive subsidies for electric cars?

Priorities 🤷‍♀️

Reeves says rules and red tape are ‘boot on the neck’ of business At the Mansion House dinner she calls for regulators to allow more risk to clear the way for economic growth

Cutting "red tape" (aka public protections), as Reeves is doing, does not save money. Instead, it transfers costs from the rich to the poor. Other people pay for financial recklessness, filthy rivers, air pollution, lax building standards and consumer rip-offs.

Several local members were able to hear in person or via Zoom the party’s leadership contenders this afternoon. We are fortunate to have such quality candidates @zackpolanski.bsky.social @elliechowns.bsky.social

Gorgon CCS underperformance hits new low in 2023-24 In the last financial year, the Gorgon CCS project captured only 30% of the CO2 it removed from its reservoir, its weakest performance to date. As a result of technical challenges and underperformance...

🧵The world’s flagship carbon capture and storage project (in Australia) promised to sequester at least 80% of the CO2 from an LNG plant.

Since starting up in 2019 it’s failed to do that—never came close—and it’s failing worse over time. Capture rate has now sunk to 30%.

There’s all sorts of reasons to confront Rachel Reeves given her recent policy statements but there’s no place for the misogyny swilling about at the moment…

More than 80% of UK farmers are worried that the “devastating” effect of the climate crisis could damage their ability to make a living, a survey by the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit has found. It says that over the last five years 87% of farmers have experienced reduced productivity

TO REPAIR OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE EU Restore freedom of movement Rejoin the Customs Union Get the UK 'rejoin ready REAL HOPE. REAL CHANGE Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ

Nine years ago today the UK voted to leave the EU.

Since then our economy has shrunk, our creative industries have been damaged and our freedoms curtailed.

Now is the time to be having mature conversations about rejoining the EU and repairing the damage done by Brexit.

7 good reasons to join the Green Party

1. For wealth taxes on the super rich to support our public services.
2. For a just transition away from fossil fuels.
3. For welfare not warfare.
4. For Gaza.
5. To win lots of elections, building on 850 Councillors and 4 MPs.

REAL HOPE. REAL CHANGE. INVEST IN RENEWABLE ENERGY NO NEW NUCLEAR Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of the Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ

The Government are putting £14.2 billion (🤯) into the new Sizewell C nuclear power station.

Nuclear power is hugely slow and expensive.

Labour should be putting this money into insulating people homes and renewable energy to bring down bills AND emissions.

How many can it be shared between?

Only one thing to say this evening: live, love, laugh and be happy. Congratulations #HullKR

Labour is no longer a party of the left.
Starmer has been ruthless in making that a reality.

To those Labour members still clinging to a sinking ship:

We’re building a real alternative. Come help us do it. 💪
