£2000 bills are coming if we don't sort out the broken water industry. 😱 Water is a product that we can't live without. Yet we're powerless when the private profiteers squeeze us for every penny - we can't exactly switch suppliers! 💧 We need public ownership NOW!

As we celebrate 80 years after VE Day: Fascism and far-right is on the rise, stoking hatred. War clouds hang as megalomaniacs want to redraw borders. Hard-won social rights are being lost. Poverty, deprivation and intolerance are on the rise. Don't let their sacrifices be in vain.

This insanity needs to be stopped. Israel is barbaric and no friend of any nation. Israel must be stopped & Palestine must be defended.

The Court of Appeal has this week ruled that anti-protest laws which completely ignored the will of Parliament are UNLAWFUL It has not been mentioned on a single news show this morning. If they won’t cover it let’s do it ourselves

Thursday isn’t far away now! It’s going to be a close call, so we need every last one of your votes. Vote Green for real change in our region.

"This is our chance to send the Government a clear message that we deserve better." Young Greens lay out just some of the reasons you should vote Green on 1 May.

Perils of privatizing the NHS and chase for profits Botched cataract surgeries, lack of after care. People blinded. Performing unnecessary operations. Inflating costs for the NHS. Profiteering Serious concerns about patient safety. Expand NHS capacity, don't privatise. archive.ph/a94C2

In a world where Fascism is increasingly rearing it's ugly head - let's sing it loud and proud. All you Fascists are gonna lose! 🎵 Repost if you stand against Fascism ✊

Reeves to make case for trade deal in first meeting with US treasury secretary. Must not sacrifice the NHS; food/environment standards, worker rights. Any deal must be approved by parliament in a free vote. Trade deal with the EU preferable to US. Can't trust Trump. Our future lies with Europe.

We are going to see a deluge of cases brought against institutions that (I think lawfully) want to continue to adopt trans inclusive policies. We will run an accelerated process to hire an equalities lawyer to advise them and (try and) ensure trans voices in those cases.

A private equity firm just bought £1.6 BILLION worth of the NHS. It will make bigger profits by hiking rents for hospitals and NHS facilities. Previous govts privatized the estate. That means less money for frontline healthcare. NHS already drained by PFI and private contractors.

Bird shooting isn’t a tradition — it’s a mass killing spree dressed up as aristocratic fun. Tens of thousands of birds bred, released, and gunned down for pleasure. Prince William. David Beckham. Jeremy Clarkson. All part of it. Disgusting.

The Good Friday Agreement was signed 27 years ago today. It was an act of delicate diplomacy, which delivered peace and security to a part of our country where those qualities had long been absent. Those achievements should never be taken for granted.

💚 Vote Green on 1 May for real hope and real change.

BREAKING: Public ownership of water companies would reduce bills by £3–5bn a year. A report by the University of Greenwich and @weownit.org.uk shows households would be £113 a year better off with nationalised water companies. The Green Party wants to see water back into public hands

The EU is a powerful trading bloc with the heft to stand up to Trump Brexit Britain has no alternative but to appease him and to change our domestic policy to keep him sweet This makes us closer to a vassal state than EU membership ever did

URGENT - there are growing concerns that the NHS will be included in trade talks with Trump 🚨 EveryDoctor has set up a way to tell Keir Starmer within seconds that you do not want this. Please click here, and then share! bit.ly/TellKeir

This NHS hospital is going to sack 4% of its workforce, this is awful news! These workers are needed, the work is there. The NHS needs investment urgently, hospitals across England are being forced to make cuts. 🧵 #SOSNHS www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

More taxes? Yes please! Patriotic Millionaires want to do more for the country “Tax our wealth” – that’s the message from millionaires across the UK whose campaign is hitting the road ahead of the government’s spring statement @patmillsuk.bsky.social @joing.bsky.social

Difficult choices for who? The Prime Minister couldn't answer my question when I asked why he's choosing to make life harder for older people, children and disabled people instead of making the super-rich pay their fair share.

We're in London today with a big old bus to tell our Govt this country cannot afford cuts. Instead they should tax us, the super rich. A 2% wealth tax alone could raise up to £460mln a week. @Keir_starmer - invest in a fairer economy. Patriotic Millionaires say Tax Our Wealth

Scores of Labour MPs raise concerns over welfare changes. Cuts are a political choice, as there are alternatives. Please ramp up pressure on local/nearby Labour MPs. Insist on meeting them face-to-face.

Repost if BlueSky is now your main social media 🙏

Labour MPs must be aware, we will not stand by them or forgive them if they vote for such heartless and cruel cuts. Repost to make it known 🔄 www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Gotta say these are pretty powerful. I imagine the UK would have a similar visual if we did this for our NHS hospitals. The thread/list from @cwebbonline.com that follows is powerful too. It takes a village to raise a child. It takes a world to heal the human race. Everyone matters.

BREAKING🚨 -We've investigated the financial links between MPs and the private health sector, and can now announce which MP received the highest donation amount from individuals+companies with links to the private health sector between 2023-2025. It's Wes Streeting. Our Health Secretary. £179,575🚨

Sounds like a plan @patmillsuk.bsky.social 👏

If you oppose NHS privatisation, please could you repost this? I’m fed up of being told that we’re ‘radical’ - most people oppose NHS privatisation! Let’s send a message to those destroying the NHS! 🚨💙

French lower house votes through wealth tax. A 2% minimum tax rate on the wealth of individuals whose net worth exceeds €100m. It is not yet law. UK needs to do similar to reduce inequalities. Instead govts penalise low/middle income families and make poor pay more for crumbling infrastructure.

USA too?

A government that cuts aid to fund war, and cuts public services instead of taxing the rich, can not call itself a labour government. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Well done France! UK next please!

“We are witnessing a very sad moment in American history. The President of the United States is aligning himself with the dictator of Russia, Vladimir Putin, to undermine the independence of Ukraine and its democracy”

HSBC net zero goal delayed 20 years, as CEO offered 600% bonus. Bankers already live on another planet and are willing to let the earth burn to fuel their lust for profits. Shareholders don't care, customers have no representation on boards, regulators and govts let them wreak havoc.

It's a fallacy to say that we have to choose between builders and blockers. We could choose to have to right sorts of development, in the right place, at the right price that would meet our housing needs while protecting our precious natural environment.

Repost if you agree we should nationalise water 🔄 💦 💚
