“Why don’t you target the polluters rather than the general public?” they say. Today Larch Maxey got a 3 prison sentence for doing exactly that. 🧵

My first time at the Green Party conference opening with a speech to get our motion on the Genocide in Gaza moved to the top of the agenda, and won! #greenparty #GPC24 #gpc2024

Judge Ian Graham considers disrupting the murderous oil industry to be a more serious crime than paedophilia or killing someone with a stolen car.

I had more thoughts about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calling me and the Green Party “not authentic” and “predatory”. She says she’s a critic of the 2-party system, so why attack Greens? AOC, let’s drop the Democratic Party talking points & have a real debate on how to break free from the predatory 2-party trap.

A Fantastic speech from our leader Anthony Slaughter, calling out Labour's failure to take meaningful action to support Welsh steel - on both ends of the M4.

Very much enjoyed attending Green Party Conference for the first time. Met so many great people and, dare I say it, I left feeling hopeful about the future of progressive politics. If you're thinking about joining and/or want to learn more, feel free to DM.

Outrageous!

Incredibly powerful speeches to #greenpartyconference The Green Party votes to call out Israel's apartheid and genocide of Palestinians and for a reaffirmation of our commitment to BDS.
