Green Party co-leaders hail highest number of councillors bbc.in/3JKEb3O

These elections have shown pro-environment parties and mayors who made net zero central to their campaigns made significant gains.

Reform have won 2 council seats out of 2500.

Time to recognise the net zero row back and kowtowing to an extreme fringe was a strategic disaster

The BBC’s local elections reporting is as shoddy as usual – apologetic they can’t spend more time talking about Reform, but nevertheless prating on for five paragraphs.

Only the Greens have exceeded predictions, gaining more councillors in Bristol than Reform nationwide.

73.8% of Lancashire didn’t bother to turn up for the PCC election. If those who did, 9534 people spoiled ballots. I am far from convinced people think this is a job.

Bristol City Council now has a record
*34* Green Councillors - a record for any UK Council

Yet more evidence that the brilliant Carla Denyer can win in Bristol Central at the General Election

GREEN GAIN from Labour in Colchester 💚

So proud of Kemal Çufoğlu who ran an incredibly positive campaign in the face of a nasty campaign from Labour who truly embarrassed themselves.

Well done Kemal and Colchester Green Party!

Homosexual behaviour in animals is extremely common. Thinking that teaching reality about people to children will make them all go gay and humans go extinct is not normal.

Being gay is far more ‘normal’ than wearing a stupid hat indoors, which is considered very rude.
