The Green Party is ready for government with a different vision for society. The Green philosophy has always been that there's enough resources on this planet for everyone to have a decent life, for us to look after climate and nature, if we share them out fairly.

Cargo bike use in London is booming - up 126% since 2022. This week I joined 50 businesses - from Royal Mail to delivery firms, waste companies & tradespeople - to celebrate & raise awareness of this clean, green & economical alternative to diesel vans. #CargoBikeCruiseLDN

3️⃣ Meanwhile global emissions have continued rising, meaning action now has to be much more urgent to compensate - CO₂ emissions are cumulative!

 The carbon budget for 1.5°C is pretty much gone, and the carbon budget for even 2°C is running out fast. (chart a bit outdated by you get the idea)

I sometimes wonder how much the fact that Health ministers are usually drawn from the demographic that uses the NHS the least (able bodied, white men, young-middle aged) is a factor in it's issues. It probably plays a part in the obsession with apps and convenience over continuity and human contact.

It's important to understand that before Margaret Thatcher Social Care in the UK was basically nationalised. 100% of children and 64% of Pensioners were in Nationalised Social Care. And that it was destroyed by FORCING Councils to sell it off by freezing their budgets.

Farmers are told these chemicals are the only way. But from my field experience, I see the truth: pesticides are a temporary fix that creates a permanent problem. They kill the pests, but they also kill the beneficial insects, degrade the soil, and lead to superweeds. It's a vicious cycle.
