So excited that Bristol's Green City Leader, Tony Dyer is meeting with NY's Mayor Mamdani and 48 mayors from the around the world. One agenda item is city owned grocery stores which could provide access to affordable decent food to combat food poverty. So good to see progressives sharing ideas.

Very very disappointed that this scheme has been spiked by Bristol Labour's nonsense. Evidence led policy is essential to reducing and eliminating the gridlock that plagues the city and those of us on the fringes would like reliable bus services that aren't stuck in traffic in town

Been in Birmingham today, meeting with other Green councillors to look at policy development for new Green administrations, sharing ideas from Greens already running councils. A pang of jealousy over Birmingham’s new trams, but they did cheer me up after Thursday.

Tonight Labour voted with the Tories to block plans to deliver cleaner air, faster buses, safer cycling and nicer walking, and enabled future mass transit. It was the old Labour administration's idea in the first place! They care more about petty political pointscoring than what's good for Bristol.

Bristol labour sunk to new depths tonight. Voting against or abstaining on three sustainable transport projects, that would improve air quality, improve bus times, a safe route for children to get to school, and even improve traffic. An absolute disgrace.

Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this Government. Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.’ I've written to Wes Streeting urging him to ditch this dangerous deal.

Nice to see that the progression artwork at Ashley Down station, designed by the Lockley’s neighbourhood trust, and members of the first Muslim Scout group, has Ben been replaced after it was vandalised. We’ve been working with officers to get this done as quickly as possible.

Excellent fact finding trip to Nottingham to see how they have improved their transport and public realm. inspiring to learn about how their workplace parking levy has funded an extra tram route, hoe they’ve laid on more buses and improved active travel. Also got to go on Vicky McClure’s tram! 🚈

A statement about the Peacehaven mosque attack from @cllremmaedwards.bsky.social on behalf of Bristol's Green Party Councillors:

Statement about Peacehaven mosque attack from Cllr Emma Edwards on behalf of Bristol's Green Party
Councillors
We are deeply upset to hear about the horrific firebomb attack on their mosque in Peacehaven this weekend and stand in solidarity with the Muslim community there. Also recognising that this affects all Muslim communities in the UK and here in Bristol, at a time when hate crime is on the rise.
This was not merely a "hate crime" - it was an act of terrorism.
Any attack targeting a place of worship and the innocent people within it is designed to instil fear, divide communities, and undermine the very values we hold dear in Britain.
The refusal by authorities to call this what it is — terrorism - reflects a dangerous double standard. When the victims are Muslim, the language changes, the outrage softens, and justice feels conditional. That must end.
Islamophobia is not an isolated prejudice; it is a threat to the fabric of our society. We must confront it with honesty, policy, and solidarity — not silence.
As Greens, we stand with all those who reject hate and work for peace, truth, and equality. No one should ever fear for their life while praying.
