Stop Silvertown Tunnel Traffic and Pollution(@SilvertownTn) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Khan isn't in the least anti-car. The opposite, in fact. His biggest project, by far, is a £2.2bn road tunnel. He has ruled out pay-per-mile road charging. The percentage of TfL's income paid by drivers vs fare payers is set to decrease, not increase. He just has good PR people.

Delighted that socialist former Labour MP Lynne Jones has joined The Green Party.

A huge welcome to our growing movement.

Brilliant to see so many new people joining: join.greenparty.org.uk

Thatcher said her greatest legacy was Tony Blair.

And now we've got Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves doing an even worse tribute act.

The Green Party say tax the super rich, nationalise our public services and strengthen workers rights.

When I say Islamophobia is mainstream, I mean it is *MAINSTREAM* in the British media.

Presenting a candidate saying “God is Great” as some dangerous thing.

Politicians have been thanking God in election victory speeches for centuries. But when a Muslim does it 🤷‍♂️

And every time someone criticises me for saying 'as a Jew' all they're saying is they're not this same type of Jew.

And that's fine. It doesn't make you any less Jewish.

It does make you silent & complicit in injustice though.

Stop trying to erase Jews who disagree.

I'll spell it out:

I'm the 'type of Jew' who's proud to be Jewish & of my Judaism.

I'm the 'type of Jew' that recognises injustice anywhere is injustice everywhere.

I'm the 'type of Jew' that comes from a long tradition of left wing Jews that have campaigned against fascism.

A Labour MP for 18 years, now joined the Greens. Your Mission Impossible for today is to find any mention of this in the British media.

Agree with this from Carla Denyer

Britain needs more MPs committed to PR, taking power out of London and protecting the country’s wonderful natural habitats.

Even 5 Green MPs massively shifts the dial on important stuff like that.

The fact that these attacks have started the same week the Green Party have had historic results makes the real motives here more than utterly blatant.

And again, as a Jewish person - this treating of antisemitism as a game makes me feel considerably less safe - not more so.

I'm a Jewish person who is deputy leader of a national party.

I'm also a Jewish person who criticises the Israeli governments actions *because* of my Judaism not in spite of it.

Never again means never again for everyone. The conflation & politicisation must stop.

I was on today’s BBC Politics South talking about the 2024 Local Elections, our existing voting system not working, and why we need to adopt Proportional Representation to make sure all votes are equal.

Zack is totally right here

Those of us who remember 1992 remember a very different Labour Party : one that constantly talked about electoral reform & highlighted how didn’t work…

…strangely enough when elected in a landslide on 1997 using FTPT that became a bit…

Labour want you to think there's nowhere else to go for young voters fed up with their u-turns.

These results show that's not true. 1/2 of voters in Bristol Central are under 35, we can win a GND Champion here & we're ready to do it

Join us on Tuesday: actionnetwork.org/events/youth-f…

Important to note - if Siân Berry wins in Brighton Pavilion this year, her AM job goes to Green mayoral candidate Zoë Garbett (who is fourth on the proportional Assembly list)

Why aren't the media talking about this bit of the local elections? 👇

Candidates on shoe string budgets beating well funded campaigns, from the established parties, making up more than a third of the seats that changed hands at the local elections.

Greens and Indies cleaned up

Great work - comfortable re-election: 1st, 4th and 8th list positions (of 12).

And three second places in constituencies - Lambeth & Southwark, North East and Greenwich, and Lewisham.
