We can't seriously expect people to choose rail when it costs three times as much as flying. We need a clear duty on the Secretary of State and Great British Railways, to improve the affordability of travelling by train and make fares fair.

This man has achieved more in a year outside of parliament than a lot of politicians do in a lifetime. He's rightly taking this moment to thank everyone that tirelessly supported the campaign, but let's put some respect on his name too: big up, Zacky P! We're proud of you x

Also, Green MPs are not whipped. So they are far more independent than most MPs.

We have to #Unlearn the idea that history proceeds, teleoligically, in one direction. And the assumption that the way things are today in the 21st century is fixed. History is made by human and more-than-human action

Honestly this is tiring. You're acting like we have a problem that you in labour don't. Prejudice is everywhere and we all need to act but stop weaponising it for political effect the day before an election. It's clear what you're doing

It's pretty sad to use racism as a political attack. It makes minorities less safe. And if you do it, make really sure your own party is spotless - which it really isn't. Round and round we go.

Zack won with about 85% of the vote - before the membership spiked. So a majority of The "Green party of Lucas" voted for the "Green Party of Polanski". Demonstrating we are one and the same (which doesn't mean we agree on every point).

Important to remember about Star Wars: The Rebellion were the criminals in society, the good guys fighting for what was right, for freedom from oppression. The Empire were the "law abiding" citizens and the law enforcement, the bad guys oppressing it's people under draconian law. Be a Rebel.

I helped with door knocking in the by-election. The instruction for us all was to listen. We weren't running through a list of policies, but asking what mattered to residents (mostly local issues). But don't let that get in the way of this poor faith attack.

Really sad to see you join in the tired attack line from right wing politicians (and those in labour who ape them for votes). Social justice and climate action are entirely connected. This just comes across as "stay in your lane" - not a great look.

The Representation of the People Bill contains some useful measures, but it must go further – put proportional representation on the statute books, shut loopholes that let dark money in, and modernise media platform oversights to stop misinformation and disinformation.
