Fire engines outside Baynton House tonight Spoke to a fireman and it seemed to be a false alarm (thank goodness) but he raised that they struggled to get in due to people parking illegally including on the pavement. In a serious fire they would have needed bigger fire engines...

Fossil fuel giants and their billionaire backers are boiling Britain. We need action to reduce emissions - but we also need emergency safety measures too. Cool spaces in every community and a maximum working temperature. It's time for Government to step in.

Workers deserve better. Higher pay. Strong rights. Collective power. This is what the Green Party Workers’ Charter is about - building an economy that works for people, not the wealthy few.

Green Party Workers’ Charter 2026 graphic on a dark green background. At the top, white text reads: “GREEN PARTY WORKERS’ CHARTER 2026.” Below, a bold line reads: “Workers deserve better.” The main text says: “Higher pay that covers the cost of living. Real protection and dignity at work. The freedom to organise and fight back. Steps toward a system that works for workers - not shareholders and the wealthy few.”
Further text reads: “The Green Party puts people before profit, and always has. We stand for real equality - a society built for people, not corporations. And we’re not waiting for change - we’re fighting for it now.”
At the bottom: “A fair society and a sustainable one are inseparable - and these three commitments reflect that.”

Green Party Workers’ Charter 2026 slide with dark green background. At the top: “GREEN PARTY WORKERS’ CHARTER 2026.” Large bold heading reads: “1. HIGHER PAY.”
Text underneath says: “Raising wages is essential to tackle the cost of living crisis and make our society more equal.”
Further text reads: “For years pay has been held down and cut, hitting living standards and feeding spiralling inequality.”
A subheading reads: “Our 2026 campaigning pledges:” followed by bullet points: “End poverty pay”, “Raise public sector pay”, “Pay Justice.”

Dear Shabana, Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.

Dear Shabana,
I notice today that you referred to me in your speech on immigration at the IPPR think tank.
You said: “A party leader should not be on the beaches of France encouraging people to
make a perilous crossing on small boats.”
I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised especially after the hateful Labour campaign in Gorton
and Denton, but this is just the latest in a string of lies peddled by a discredited Government
who intentionally fan the flames of racism and division.
When I went to Calais, I was not there to encourage people to travel to the UK. I was there
to see at first hand the suffering your Government and successive Governments have done
in demonising migrants in a pathetic bid to pander to the base instincts of Reform and the
flawed strategy of Morgan McSweeney.
As you will know, if you even bothered to research my visit instead of taking Reform talking
points, I was there to witness the brutality of families living in tents in freezing temperatures. I
filled water tanks and picked up litter.
What that visit did do is confirm my belief that if we are to smash the boat gangs and stop
the boats, we need to offer safer and managed routes for migrants to come to this country.
Showing compassion as a politician is not a crime. In fact, we need to see much more of it.
It reminded me of a young MP who in October 2015 spent three days in Lesbos helping
migrants fleeing war-torn Syria. She posted videos on X, talked about handing out water and
croissants to refugees and food parcels.
When she returned to the UK, she wrote a very moving piece in the New Statesman. She
said “we have to work with our European partners and create new, safe, and legal routes for
refugees to get to Europe. We cannot abandon them to their fate, left as prey for smugglers
whilst risking death on the seas.”
She said “maybe we can make ourselves feel better by saying no-one is making them get on
the boats. And again, the Home Secretary is not entirely wrong when …
