For posting the below, I've just been expelled from The Green Party for at least 5 years.

I have consistently worked as hard as I physically could for the good of the party – putting it above my health, career, personal ambitions and personal life.

Handing out Keep Our NHS Public postcards and leaflets with the brilliant Patricia, who was 7 when the NHS was created.

I’m not saying the fact that she cycled across the width of Hackney to be there is proof an NHS keeps the public healthy, but it definitely doesn’t hurt…

The rich WANT to be taxed more...

I say let's take them up on the offer and give public services the funding they need.

Hackney has one of the highest levels of child poverty in the UK. We must support families and invest in our children’s future, especially during the current cost crisis.

Postal votes finally arrived 🙌🏼 Wishing Zoë Garbett best of luck for Major and Liam Davis all the best in the Hoxton East By-election 💚

I’m also voting for Rebecca Jones for North East GLA🦈🔶 for the North East Constituency. We need more kindness and integrity in politics and Rebecca has that 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Happy ! 💜🧡

It's fantastic & fabulous to see a week of celebrating visibility & being for LBTQ women & NBies, who have oft been ignored & obscured by many societies.

From art and culture to people and the places they make, Lesbian Visibility is essential!

Today is Earth Day 🌍 We only have one home and we are running out of time to save the billions of species who we live alongside, as well as ourselves.

Here are two of my favourite spots in Hackney: Khadija’s Garden and The Tree Musketeers Nursery.

Ableism alive and well across the X-verse. Some fact checks:

♿️ 54% of disabled people in the UK are in work
♿️ Your disability status is not determined by whether you claim benefits
♿️ Disabled people are less likely to be hired, despite wanting to work more

25% of the population is disabled.

Modern working practices were designed for able-bodied married white men who had stay-at-home wives.

Studies show that the disabled want to work more than the average person, but for many reasons we’re not always able to.
