Well we did try to reduce council tax for residents last night. We proposed a increase of 4.49% rather than 4.99% funded by the release of a provision. Sadly Labour voted against. Residents have suffered so much, would have been nice to offer a glimmer of hope of times getting better.

The Green Party's policy on drugs is to decriminalise. A person hooked on heroin will currently go to prison where there is little support. Instead they should be supported to detox and recover. Less deaths, less chance of relapse, cheaper for the taxpayer.

It's all about deception with Reform. They fabricate fake people on social media via bots. And now they've fabricated a pensioner in campaign literature in Manchester, all hidden. If voters want honesty in politics, this alone should turn them away from Reform.

I'm not often surprised with the incompetence of Reform, but this is one instance where I am. These are apparently seasoned politicians. I wonder how often they voted the wrong way when they were conservatives.

Definitely a gamble posting any membership numbers for the Green Party as it will already be out of date before I finish typing. What an amazing day today though!

This is Zack Polanski telling it how it is. The Green Party is funded from small donations and members, not large rich donors. We are a party that will tax the very rich. And now it all makes sense. join.greenparty.org.uk youtu.be/qxt4HCjd7VA?...

Reform have less than 1% of the seats in Parliament, but feature in a quarter of the news bulletins at the BBC. So much for impartiality. t.co/3yUj54UkQb

Just how much longer can the wealthy get wealthier and the poorest get poorer? There has to become a point when there's nothing left to transfer. I think we are close. Also 80% of UK millionaires support a 2% wealth tax on assets over £10 million. #wealthtax #greenparty

What a disappointment the Labour cabinet are. My heart goes out to disabled people who are now terrified of what will happen. Such a rushed bill and labour can't even say how much the bill will save.

New MPs earnings data has just dropped. Nigel Farage still comfortably the top earner. His 10 additional jobs have earned him an estimated £977k since the election.

This is an absolute travesty. When you have a choice of taxing the rich, who likely won't have their lifestyles affected at all, or causing huge mental harm and wellbeing to some of the most vulnerable people in society, it astound me that you choose the latter. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

It's even more important now to monitor and compare the performance of all elected Mayors, both new and existing. We need to ensure that they work hard and spend their budgets wisely and efficiently.

Turnout is often low for local elections, but it's a nice evening for a stroll to the polling station. If you're thinking of voting for Reform, though, ask yourself what relevant policies they have. Your local council isn't going to "stop the boats". www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I try to avoid listening to Trump. But I tuned in tonight to listen to his Tariff Talk and was just struck by how his conversation jumps about to just be an incoherent mess of words. The Emperor's New Clothes.

Labour are far from perfect and have made some terrible decisions. But the focus has got to be on Reform who are a greater risk and seem to be dragging other political parties down to their level.

Energy to waste incineration goes against a circular economy, produces emissions and increases air pollution. Teesside is in line for a cluster of them in a deprived area. It's time for Labour to step up and stop this craziness. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
