Labour just don't get it. They don't get how scared people are with extreme weather becoming our new normal. We need voices in parliament that will force them to take wildfires seriously, not quietly shirk responsibility.

The UK's @greenparty.org.uk wants a 1% annual tax on assets over £10 million, rising to 2% above £1 billion. It would hit fewer than 1% of households, fund the NHS and make Britain fairer. Another world is possible.

Labour and Burnham have been silent on capping political donations while Reform gets £72 million from Farage's billionaire mates. We need @zackpolanski.bsky.social in Parliament to hold Labour to account, not another Labour backbencher to wave through Burnham's policies without scrutiny.
A quote from Rachel Millward, Deputy Leader of the Green Party. It reads, "Reform is a vessel for the super wealthy. They will always act in the interests of the super wealthy. Labour could have stopped this years ago by capping donations. Burnham promised to do it then backtracked. Will he now admit this was a mistake? Burnham and Labour have been quiet on a donations cap for the last 24 hours. The public needs to know where he stands."

Given our consistent engagement on the adult social care crisis and willingness to work together to solve it, it's deeply disappointing that the Greens weren't invited to today's cross-party talks. We need all hands on deck to tackle this issue - the Greens remain ready to work cross-party to do so.
Dear Andy, 
29 July 2026 
I welcome your commitment to addressing the challenge of fixing social care, an issue which has 
for too long been neglected and treated as a political football. There are no shortage of reports and 
proposals on how to change things; what has been missing for far too long is the political will to 
do so. I am therefore glad to see that you have committed to spending political capital on securing 
positive change. 
I also agree that cross-party working is essential to best face this challenge. Indeed, I have 
repeatedly called in Parliament for cross-party talks, and I have represented the Green Party at the 
(so far, only two) cross-party meetings convened as part of the Casey Commission’s work, in 
September 2025 and May 2026. I expressed my strong desire for more frequent and in-depth 
cross-party discussions at that most recent meeting, as well as consistently calling on the 
government to show greater political leadership on this issue. 
It was therefore disappointing to learn yesterday that only two political parties had been invited to 
meet with you today, at very short notice, to discuss social care. I am puzzled as to why you did 
not extend an invitation to the Green Party, given our long track record of positive engagement in 
this area and our frequent expressions of interest in, and support for, cross-party work on social 
care. Failing to extend an invitation to your first cross-party meeting on the topic is, frankly, not 
consistent with your stated commitment to working cooperatively across party lines. 
I remain very keen to work constructively with you and other cross-party colleagues to find 
solutions to the crisis in social care, so that we can meet the needs and uphold the interests of 
people who draw on care, their families and other unpaid carers, and all those who work in the 
care sector. 
I look forward to hearing from you.

This morning we have seen the horrific reports from Belfast of people driven from their homes based on nothing but the colour of their skin, with some politicians, including some in the House of Commons, using a truly horrendous individual incident to blame a whole community.

Bold text: As Green MPs we condemn this scapegoating as racist, wrong and at odds with British values. 

Headshots of the Green MPs appear alongside a list of their names:

This country has heard enough from Tony Blair.
This country has heard quite enough from Blair, says Polanski
Zack Polanski has hit out at Sir Tony Blair's criticisms of the current Labour Party, saying his intervention is "pretty grotesque" - and too long.

This morning, the former prime minister issued a stinging rebuke of Sir Keir Starmer's Labour Party, warning that it has "no coherent plan" and is in the "wrong position" to win a second term in government. 

Asked for his reaction by our political correspondent Rob Powell, the Green Party leader told Sky News: "I think it was 5,600 words too many. Tony Blair is a former prime minister who dragged this country into an illegal war in Iraq.

"I think it's pretty grotesque to see him selling the future of our children and grandchildren down the river through the kind of climate delay tactics, talking down clean energy and the security that we need. 

"I just don't think this is a sensible intervention in a day where we're speaking in these extreme temperatures, to have someone who should hold a position of responsibility or a former position of responsibility to be speaking like this."

Despite it being obvious that the time of two-party politics is over, the govt laid out no plans to introduce a fairer voting system in the King's Speech. That's why Green MPs tabled an amendment on the need to bring in proportional representation and make every voice heard.
A screenshot of the Parliamentary Order Paper for 14/5/26. Text reads "1. King’s Speech (Motion for an Address): Adjourned Debate [13 May]

Until 5.00pm (Standing Order No. 9(3))

Proposed subject for debate: Getting Britain working again

That an humble Address be presented to His Majesty, as follows:

Most Gracious Sovereign, We, Your Majesty’s most dutiful and loyal subjects, the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, in Parliament assembled, beg leave to offer our humble thanks to Your Majesty for the Gracious Speech which Your Majesty has addressed to both Houses of Parliament." Underneath that further text reads "Amendment (b)

Dr Ellie Chowns

Siân Berry

Adrian Ramsay

Carla Denyer

Hannah Spencer

At end add ‘but respectfully regret that the Gracious Speech fails to include measures to introduce proportional representation for all national and local elections before the next General Election.’"
