Wakefield District Green Party is campaigning for Real Change for Ordinary People. And we’re here to offer a helping hand for local people. https://wakefieldgreenparty.org.uk/ Real Change For Ordinary People: A Helping Hand for Local People

The costs of basic essentials are spiralling out of control and too many in our district are struggling to get by day to day.

That's why a Green council in Wakefield would be offering more support to help people claim the essential help they are entitled to.

Greens working hard for #Richmond and #Twickenham this week 💚

Your Green councillors, candidates and volunteers were out asking for opinions and hearing from residents about their concerns this weekend. Change is coming, and it starts on the ground.

Let's keep going! Will you join us?

Keighley News headline: '3 year old joins litter pick in Bingley West' below a photo of Green Party volunteers with litter pickers and bags of rubbish.

🚮 Cath Bacon, Bingley West candidate: "During a Green Party litter pick we were delighted to welcome our youngest volunteer – a three-year-old who proudly helped collect rubbish with the rest of the group. It was a lovely example of how caring for our local environment can begin at any age."

A group of young Londoners standing in a semi circle smiling.

So good to catch up with @alanclarkg.bsky.social and @jo-fang.bsky.social along with the awesome @londonygs.bsky.social tonight to hear about their great work supporting doorknocking across London and answer their questions about being a councillor and an Assembly Member. 💚 👌

It has been embarrassing to see other parties fighting about who's most eager to give a giant tax break to the fossil fuel giants... the very industry that has brought us to the point of global crisis.

It's encouraging to see the public aren't taken in by the industry lobbyists' demands.

A political quote graphic from Green Party NI. The background photograph shows a close-up of an elderly person’s hands — wearing fingerless gloves — touching a cold radiator. The image conveys fuel poverty, cold, and domestic hardship. Large white quotation marks appear in the upper left corner. A thin white rectangular border frames the image. In large bold white text over the lower half: “Renewable energy built and owned here in Northern Ireland can’t be blockaded. It can’t be sanctioned. It doesn’t depend on despots or military alliances. It is ours.” Below the quote, in bold white: “Cllr Brian Smyth” and beneath that in regular white text: “Lisnasharragh, Belfast.” At the bottom centre, the Green Party Northern Ireland logo — a green leaf beside “greenparty” in white, with “NORTHERN IRELAND” beneath in smaller text.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Families in Iran and across the Middle East are dying in a conflict rooted in oil. Some politicians here backed the strikes that triggered it.

Their constituents now face 50% gas hikes, surging food costs, and refugees fleeing the bombs they applauded.

The Herald article: Chris Packham backs Greens' ban on greyhound racing in Scotland

Every greyhound deserves a happy and healthy life.

With the support of Chris and so many people across Scotland, the Greens will finally end this cruel gambling-led sport for good.

I have seen similar results from UK private testing. Patients understandably expect tests they see heavily advertised to be accurate and meaningful. Often they aren't

Bombs falling on Iran will not bring democracy. They will only endanger the brave Iranians who have already risked their lives protesting for freedom.

We must not repeat the mistakes of Iraq and Afghanistan by blindly following Donald Trump’s America into another dangerous war.

Perfectly put...💚

Gas price shocks after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine showed the danger of relying on fossil fuels tied to volatile global markets.

Renewables offer something fossil fuels never can: stable energy where the price never changes.
