⚡ BREAKING ⚡

Our latest research finds more than £30 billion for public spending each year could come from a very unexpected place:

A central bank-issued digital pound!

That’s enough to fund a certain green investment pledge 🙃

Let us explain…🧵

Cate is an experienced Stroud District Youth Council leader, and it’s been such a privilege to work closely with her, including on detailed performance monitoring for Stroud District Council

I hope #Stroud Central will #VoteGreen on Thursday for this amazing young woman💚 stroudtimes.com/meet-the-woman…

In South Glos and across the region we will all have an opportunity to vote for our next Police and crime commissioner. Find out more about the The Green Party candidate for the region Katy Grant. southglos.greenparty.org.uk/2024/04/29/vot…

🗳️ On Thursday, voters across the country go to the polls to elect councillors, Mayors and Police & Crime Commissioners.

📈 The number of elected Greens has grown exponentially over recent years.

💚 Help us keep that momentum going by voting Green on Thursday

I like Steve & enjoyed interviewing him. But imo it’s shameful - & risky - that local Labour have been bounced by Labour HQ into ending the de facto electoral pact with Stroud District Green Party that has kept the Tories out of power at @strouddc for over 10 yrs (1/2)

Hi Mel Stride

Work is only good for your mental health if you are treated well at work

Being exploited, bullied and abused can lie at the heart of mental ill health - in the workplace or anywhere else

As can waiting in pain for an operation

Ignoring this is just cruelty

Shocked at Dan Poulter defection. Takes a lot for someone to change party.

But has he only just realised this govt has been undermining the NHS?

In elections it's The Green Party challenging Conservatives in rural Suffolk & we're arguing for investment the NHS needs.

🚉 'Privatisation of our rail sector has failed.'

Carla Denyer discusses the need for full public ownership of our railways AND proper investment.

📺 'We need to have a political system that people can have confidence in.'

Adrian Ramsay speaks to BBC Breakfast about the priorities of the next generation of Green MPs.

Really tired of having this conversation with people who tell me I have to vote for a party I don't believe in because of the electoral system.

We won't get a better electoral system by voting for a party that has no intention of introducing one.

📺 'Young people can't even think about getting there.'

Ellie Chowns discusses soaring house prices, the need for rent controls and the political choices that have caused the housing crisis.

Looking forward to joining this @HackneyGreens action day on Sunday to get @a4Antoinette elected as a councillor and support London Green Party and Zoë Garbett for London Mayor and Assembly

🇮🇹🇵🇹 Today is Liberation Day in Italy and the 50th anniversary of Freedom Day in Portugal.

💚 As Greens, we promise the citizens voting in the European elections on June 6-9 that we have the courage to stand against the far right.

Can’t be put more simply: Greens would scrap Ofsted. Keeping single-word ratings? I can’t believe what I am reading this morning. I grew up with teachers and have governed a wonderful school and this is not serving better standards.

My rating of this Government: Inadequate.

Krishnan Guru-Murthy: Shouldn't the Greens be doing a lot better?'

Ellie Chowns: 'We have been doing a lot better. We've quadrupled our number of council seats in the last 4 years!'

True - Greens can & do win in every part of UK. #VoteGreen

📺'Local government is really struggling.'

Green MP candidate for North Herefordshire Ellie Chowns outlines the challenges facing local government after years of Conservative cuts.

💚On 2nd May, #VoteGreen for a party committed to proper funding of local services.

It's good to see Labour finally moving in the right direction on rail. But their proposals fall far short of the full public ownership The Green Party has long been calling for - and make no commitment to address the significant investment needed in our railway services.

Labour MPs voted with the Tories to force the water regulator to prioritise 'growth' over reducing environmental harm.

Why?

'Because they did not want to be accused of being anti-growth.'

If you value the natural world, don't vote Labour - #VoteGreen . theguardian.com/environment/20…

Hi Sam Coates Sky

I don't want to complain to Ofcom but this looks like it breaks their rules for the short campaign

Also unfortunate that you portray this as a campaign between men. Surely not appropriate in 2024

Why no pic of Carla Denyer and Adrian Ramsay?

Oh NBD just Hilary Clinton sharing our Carbon Brief analysis
