🤑 The average FTSE 100 CEO is now paid 122 times the salary of the average full-time UK worker. ⚖️ The Green Party would introduce a 10:1 pay ratio, meaning the highest-paid employee cannot earn more than ten times the lowest-paid.

This is definitely worth a read. The leadership contest and debates, at times combative, has been a good thing for the Greens

New data has suggested more than one in four parents will go without food or heating to afford school uniform. Meanwhile, the rich get richer and richer and richer and richer. Child poverty is a political choice. This government could make different ones.

Honestly, the level of ‘Don’t Knows’ for the current Green Party leadership after four years and numerous GE debates is concerning. I have the greatest respect, admiration and gratitude for Adrian and Carla but it’s time to change our approach and gear-up with Zack Polanski.

For Starmer to be more Unfavourable than Corbyn with recent Con and Reform voters says so much about how lost his premiership has become. He’s alienated just about everyone.

The Israeli military have begun the first stages of their planned ground offensive in Gaza City, forcing Palestinians to flee. And the UK government watches on as Netanyahu carries out his genocidal plans.

I founded an international women's film festival which called out inequality and changed the narrative around gender in the most powerful medium of its day. I regularly speak for a wealth tax, against disability cuts, for proper funding of public services, and more. #Rach4Deputy

Migrants didn't cut council funding. Migrants didn't cut NHS funding. Migrants didn't close youth centres. Migrants didn't sell off council houses. Migrants aren't filling our rivers with sewage. Farage and co. will tell you to point the finger at migrants. Don't fall for it.

🗣️ “This is yet more toxic, inflammatory, dangerous rhetoric from Nigel Farage” Green Party MP Ellie Chowns criticises Reform’s plan to leave the European Convention on Human Rights as part of their approach to combat illegal immigration.

I hope Thangam Debbonaire brings up how she claimed the Greens spread ‘lies’ during the Gen Elex about her being sent to the House of Lords if she lost her Bristol seat… after being sent to the House of Lords when she lost her Bristol seat. Those pesky psychic Greens!

Nigel Farage wants to spend more than £10 billion of your money every year deporting people. Why would Reform prefer to waste billions being cruel to people instead of taxing the super-rich properly and making life better for EVERYONE? (Spoiler: Farage is super-rich)
