Wow. What a campaign. Thank you to the 1000+ volunteers today and everyone throughout the campaign. The Green Party got 10% last time. Whatever happens tonight - we made Labour work like they never have before. I'm so proud of you all. 💚🙏🏽

I think Labour will now make the mistake of thinking they don't need to worry about the Greens. But in reality they will soon realise that is wrong.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

Fort Hood Shooter’s Execution Will be Public and Streamed Live, Pentagon Says
If carried out, the public execution of Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan by firing squad set for Dec. 3 would be the first in modern U.S. history.

Congratulations to Sagal. I wish her the very best in representing this amazing place. I'm proud of the campaign we fought. To go from 10% to 33% of the vote share during the PM's 'bounce' is good - but our ambitions are far higher.
