The planet has reached its first catastrophic climate tipping point.

160 scientists from 23 countries warn that unless global heating is cut to 1.2°C as fast as possible, warm-water coral reefs will vanish “at any meaningful scale.”

The science is clear: We need to act now.

Imagine if we got the same airtime as Reform....

I'm Jewish. I'm also Mancunian.

Every other national party leader was interviewed by Laura Kunesberg during their conference.

Maybe the BBC thought as someone who also supports Palestine - I had nothing to say?

We stand with the Jewish community and everyone affected by the horrific attack at the synagogue in Manchester today.

Zack Polanski: “We've seen rising antisemitism for years, as well as rising hate crime more generally. This is about civil society, democracy, and bringing people together.”

What a pleasure for our Chair, NICK BROWN, to be invited to talk with the group from @livecheshire. We debated wealth tax, inequality and access to public transport. We desperately need more people, from more diverse communities and groups to be represented in politics.

PAUL BOWERS stands up for communities and the environment.

Essar refinery (August 2025) got £2.5 million for jet fuel, plus £7.2 million for the blue hydrogen furnace. A foreign company, earning billions, taking money from you. Flaring, smells, air pollution are at a high. This needs to stop.

£44million profit on Mersey Rail that should be back in public ownership. PAUL BOWERS will work with Wirral Green Party and CWaC Green Party Councillors & the Unions to push for this. We need affordable, accessible public transport now.
