We have a real chance to elect Hannah Spencer as the Green Party’s 5th MP.

This by-election is clear: Green vs Reform. Graft vs grift. Hope vs division.

Join Hannah and @zackpolanski.bsky.social in Gorton and Denton this Saturday and help us make hope normal again ⤵️

The PM already seems to have turned a blind eye to Mandelson's relationship with Epstein in order to cosy up to Trump, & the govt's actions today further prioritise a relationship with the US over transparency with the British public. We need urgent action to clean up politics.

Given what we now know about one of ‘our’ main negotiators, why should we think this was negotiated with our interests in mind?
so hang on a minute, the UK (significantly, erm, “represented“ in negotiations by Mandelson) has just signed a trade deal with the US that gives into their demands for NHS to pay way more for medicines…. & yet Streeting won’t even tell us the barest details? 🤯

Greens in and around Manchester are powering a magnificent campaign to get Hannah Spencer elected.

This is already one for the ages!

Matt Badloss can do one.

Gorton and Denton deserves Green and the care that brings.

Good Luck Hannah 💚

Pleased to see the jury make this decision.

We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries.

People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover.

We have 400 volunteers on the streets of Gorton and Denton today.

Labour are out of it. It's Greens vs Reform.

Lower bills, tax the rich, protect the NHS. We will win.

1. This short thread is about the issue that dominates almost every aspect of politics, and causes or exacerbates most of our problems: the extreme wealth of a small number of people. Here’s the amazing thing: almost the entire political class aligns with the ultra-rich against the rest. 🧵1/10

If Labour won’t nationalise water, their “big overhaul” is a con.

Sewage in our rivers. Bills going up. Profits protected.

Public services should be in public hands.

So true.

We in UK do not have an independent nuclear deterrent. Our nuclear weapons will be used or not used at the direction of the USA. Those weapons are the forward arm of U.S. defence. They do not defend us - in fact they make us the bullseye. And we pay for them.

What's really striking is the age of people at your meets vs the other parties. Greens = all ages, but a noticeable lot of young people. And that's where the passion is, that's where the energy to go door to door & leaflet & stand in elections is! Terrific.

⚡2026 is a turning point. UK #climate & environmental activists face both crisis & opportunity.

Fascism rises, the #climate agenda is under attack, & political representation is urgent.

The left has no representation in the Labour party. They betrayed their base, spat in their face and still demand their loyalty and vote. Keir Starmer is shameless, clueless and gutless.

That's why I joined the Green Party, enough is enough
