TW: Suicide/Murder/Transmisia Today is a very tough day. A year ago, a 17-year-old girl from Portland named Charlotte left her home with just her phone and bus pass and was never seen again.

Turns out a few days ago Darren Grimes gave me a mention in one of his videos. Darren says: “…Brooke is talking about Local Politics, actual things that matter to people! Cleaner streets! Tidier establishments! That’s good use of a local councillor’s time.”

I went to town this week, spotted some homophobic graffiti in a Public Car Park. Things like this graffiti might make locals feel unsafe. Returned today to remove the offensive graffiti. Just one small thing our local Greens are doing. Let’s take PRIDE in our local area. join.greenparty.org.uk

I'm running as a candidate for the next Campaigns Officer role at @lgbtiqagreens.bsky.social. I've been involved in several LGBTIQA+ campaigns over the last year, and would like to use my skills to further the aims of LGBTIQA+ Greens. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
A poster of Brooke Linnet smiling, wearing a green t-shirt, hidden disabilities supporter lanyard, trans flag pin badge and she/her/hers pronoun badge. She is sat in front of a green background with a transparent trans flag texture. The text on the image reads: voting open elections close 8 March. Brooke Linnet for Campaigns officer. The image contains an imprint which reads: promoted and produced by Brooke Linnet as part of her campaign for election to the LGBTIQA+ Greens committee. This is not an official communication from the green party of England and wales or the green party of northern Ireland.

I appeared on the BBC a while back, we're talking like... 2004/2005... Wonder if the BBC Archive team may be able to find the recording of me from then. and now I play the waiting game. 😲

It’s a pretty cool little box that works like a smart meter in-home display, and you can get live stats on your energy usage in the Octopus app. octopus.energy/blog/octopus...

Currently spending the afternoon in London. I was supposed to be taking a friend out today to see Avatar at the BFI IMAX this morning , but due to a misunderstanding over Christmas, we fell out. Change of scenery is nice, I guess.

Here's a three-for. A couple of rather sorry-looking cars I saw whilst out delivering leaflets in Southampton.

Imagine getting upset about a tube sign being written in Bengali. Citizens of the commonwealth were welcomed in to the UK to help rebuild our country during a labour shortage after WWII.

Refugees are welcome here. I joined a group of demonstrators from Stand Up to Racism in a counter-demonstration in defence of refugees in #Southampton. Let’s stop the boats by creating safe, legal routes for asylum seekers, and processing their applications effectively. #refugeeswelcome

Happy #NationalComingOutDay! As someone who is partially out for just over a year, last week at the Green Party Conference was a big moment for me. I decided that our @lgbtiqagreens.bsky.social social would be my first time out in public wearing a sparkly green dress. It’s okay to be you.

A number of news outlets reporting today on @nationaltrust.org.uk providing Vegan Tampons in the Men’s Loos. It is great to see a reminder of how inclusive the National Trust are for the LGBTQIA+ community. Anyone who menstruates should be able to go through their period with dignity. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Over the last 3 days I’ve been spending time with Swindon’s Children’s Scrapstore where I have been unboxing, dating and sorting 10 x Amazon Returns Pallets containing drinks.

Isn’t it all rather interesting how David Lammy, who has received £32,550 in donations from Israeli sources has now concluded that Israel isn’t committing genocide in Gaza?

On Saturday, I took to the streets of Swindon to defend the Thistle Express, an alleged “Asylum Hotel” from a group of Anti-Immigration protesters. 📸 @jamiebellinger.com
A protester holds up a sign written in Latin which reads “FASCISTAE ITE DOMUM” which in English transcribes to “Fascists, go home”

Thanks so much for clarifying, and the link. Doesn't help that I'm recently been automatically banned on X for supposedly being a fake person. Have submitted that page for archival now.

Thought I'd rejoin Twitter... because reasons... and apparently I've been instantly banned because I'm not a real person. Truly bizarre.

Whilst @linkedin.com supposedly do have a "contact form" to request support, when submitting it just redirects me to a wiki which effectively tells me "sign in and upload your id" before seemingly dumping my enquiry.
A meme photo of three orangutans sat around a coffee table in the BBC Breakfast studio with the caption "sign in, upload ID"

On the 18 January I’ll be in Gloucester outside Marks and Spencer’s to show the public @animalrising.org’s latest investigations into farms accredited by RSPCA’s Assurance Scheme. There are at least 8 other cities confirmed in a day of coordinated demonstrations.

Out and about at a meeting in the town centre today, stopped to eat my lunch amongst the pigeons. Pigeons are pretty smart animals, possibly more so than some breeds of dog. Be kind to all kind.
