🚨 Bradford Council report raises equality concern about Reform/Tory flag policy: “Removing the automatic right to fly some of those flags, e.g. the Pride flag, could be said not to advance equality of opportunity." Greens respond to new flag policy ⬇️
Telegraph & Argus headline: “Council bosses to decide on new flag policy this week”. Graphic shows a collage of flags, including the EU, Ukraine, Pride and other community flags, with a red X across them. A quote from Cllr Matt Edwards reads: “Reform and the Tories have teamed up to divide our communities. Changing the flag policy was a Tory demand, and Reform have been quick to pick it up.” Bradford District Green Party branding and join.greenparty.org.uk appear at the top and bottom.

Andy Burnham says he needs to wait to see the evidence before he calls what is happening in Gaza a genocide. But the UN already have the evidence: Israel is commiting four out of five acts of genocide under the 1948 Genocide Convention. Burnham must call it what it is: genocide

Yesterday Zack Polanski called on the government to put in place a three year emergency brake on private rents. No sudden rent hikes. No evictions under the guise of rent rises. No more uncertainty, no more fear: just vital breathing space for renters.

Change doesn’t happen because those in power suddenly decide to be bolder - it happens when. Greens push them to be better. And on climate, that couldn’t be more urgent. Vote Green to keep fossil fuels in the ground, where they belong

A £276 increase in bills in January would be the final straw for millions across the country. The Prime Minister must turn words into actions and stop bills going up on his watch.
Green graphic image with Hannah Spencer's photo quoting her: 'The Prime Minister must commit to stopping bills rising'. Full quote reads:

“Andy Burnham keeps talking about giving families breathing space. But actions speak louder than words and bills are still going up on his watch when people can’t afford it.  

A £276 increase in January would be the final straw for many people in the constituency I represent and for millions across the country.

The Prime Minister must commit now to stopping bills going up in January, starting with moving more costs off energy bills, properly funding a national home insulation scheme, clamping down on rampant profiteering by energy companies, and rapidly scaling up cheaper, cleaner energy.”
