Red Letter Days are an absolute scam.

The welfare savings in today's spring statement come almost entirely from cutting benefits for the disabled

Let's talk about the US' murder of Yemeni civilians. Not their idiotic security breach.

Green Party co-leader @adrianramsay.bsky.social calls for renationalisation of Thames Water during sewage works visit: "With every passing day, it’s becoming clearer & clearer that 40 years of water privatisation has been 40 years of disaster." leftfootforward.org/2025/03/gree...

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

Thames Water is corrupt. Their investors won't invest to sort them out until AFTER they get a taxpayer bailout!!!!!!! We are paying for their incompetence, their butchering of our rivers with sewage, and their millionaires' bonuses. BRING WATER INTO PUBLIC OWNERSHIP NOW! @greenparty.org.uk

My wonderful sister has written her first novel, a wolf-based thriller... please consider supporting a passionate young writer who isn't backed by the big corporations or capitalist online marketplaces! Thank you! 🐺 mixam.co.uk/print-on-dem... #Novel #Wolves #Canada #DenaliNationalPark #Thriller

THIS is allyship in action THIS is why we will be ok if we stand together, united, and don't allow the bullies and oligarchs to crush us

More of this!

There are currently 133 estates in London up for demolition. At People’s Question Time we heard from an east London resident who has been in temporary accommodation for over a year due to estate regeneration. It's clear, residents must be at the heart of regeneration, not developers. 👇

‘I feel utter anger’: From Canada to Europe, a movement to boycott US goods is spreading

No Other Land, an oscar winning documentary about Israel and Palestine is on free to air TV. The UK based Channel 4 will show it tonight at 23.15 GMT. It will then be on its online catch up service. #Solidarity www.channel4.com/programmes/n...

The meat consumption framing puts emphasis on the individual. And then, you picture a kebab and suddenly you reinforce a massive class bias that it becomes poor people buying cheap meat that's the problem and not the rich and powerful let alone systems & business www.theguardian.com/environment/...

We should tax the rich, not cut foreign aid. Repost of you agree.

On the day the Climate Change Committee call for urgent climate action BP have announced they are going to increase oil and gas production (yes, you read that right) all in the name of "growing shareholder value." BP have today shown they can't be trusted to take action on the climate crisis.

Don't believe the lies that there's no money for those who need it most. If there's money for tanks and bombs, there's money for children in Hackney and around the world.

Letting kids go hungry will not make the world safer Trumpian leadership from Keir Starmer

Rest is resistance. Community is power. You don’t have to carry everything alone. In a world that demands your exhaustion, taking care of yourself is an act of defiance. You are not alone. You matter. And you deserve the space to breathe, heal, and just be! #MentalHealth #Resist #Trans #TherapistSky

Utterly shameful - a sickening betrayal of some of the poorest people. And counterproductive too - as if global security isn’t also dependent on efforts to tackle the climate crisis, global poverty, inequality, and humanitarian needs.

After years of population decline, wildlife is on the up at Hackney Marshes. @petercarlyon.bsky.social spoke to ecologists at ReNature London and the Wildlife Gardeners of Haggerston to find out how they did it.

Well, he *is* a dick

🔥 @carladenyer.bsky.social: "Until Labour are brave enough to deal with forces draining money out of us, people will look for someone to blame. "The ultra-rich siphon off more & more, landlords hike the rent, & Farage will continue to sell the lie that migrants are the cause" t.co/oU9z5QdWYN

🔴Keir Starmer's Reform-Lite Strategy Reaches Breaking Point The Government's attempt to mimic the anti-migrant, anti-refugee politics of Nigel Farage is a recipe for moral degradation and defeat www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/keir-starm...

Shame on Met police LIES and shame on all political parties who oppress the TRUTH This is why we need more @greenparty.org.uk politicians in Parliament, the Assembly, and local councils. Because they speak to truth to power and stand for justice and accountability. You can be part of that.

Yet more performative cruelty. This means someone who fled for their life 25 yrs ago, got refugee status in the UK, and has been part of their community here ever since - maybe married, had kids, started a business - can never be a citizen. That’s not right. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Labour joins the far-right in proudly attacking the most vulnerable people I don’t want this, and I believe most people don’t want this We deserve better from politicians. We deserve better politicians. That’s why I’m in @greenparty.org.uk www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

What made you feel a moment of happiness or joy in the past week? Joy is an act of resistance. Share it to remember.
