Climate change is already here, and we need to adapt — stronger infrastructure, better flood defences, and real resilience. But we also have a choice: keep heading toward catastrophe or change course now. There is still everything to play for.

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 💸 4.5 million UK jobs were paid below real Living Wage in 2024, 800,000 more than in 2023. 💚 The Green Party would introduce a £15 minimum wage for all to lift people out of poverty and reinvigorate local economies.

Cllr Naomi Bennett has commented on the plans for the Civic Quarter to be paused. "There is a clear risk that large amounts of money will be spent on consultancy fees, but it will be unable to proceed any further with the project".

The UK has the leakiest homes in Europe. Insulating every home that needs it, as well as transitioning to heat pumps as gas boilers come to the end of their life, will bring down bills AND emissions and keep us on track for net zero according to the Climate Change Committee.

In hindsight, going down to Coldham’s Lane to see how the roadworks are going in a full suit might’ve been a bad idea, given the rain 😅

Families across Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire will yet again see their energy bill increase. Under Keir Starmer, bills have increased by £260 since July. Where's the real change he promised. It's time for energy to be brought into public ownership.

‘I met a traveller from an antique land,/ Who said - “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone/ Stand in the desert.”’ 🌵 Romsey Labour Club is a shadow of its former self, much like the party it’s named after. The Cambridge Greens are fighting for the area to have a fresh voice 💚

“By taking the decision over the future of the Beehive Centre to the Secretary of State, it shows she doesn’t even trust a Labour-run council to make decisions. If they can’t trust their own city councillors to make decisions for themselves, why should we?” Green Cllr @elliottonguk.bsky.social

Last week, I spoke at a meeting of Cambridge City Council's Planning Committee, discussing residents' concerns with the redevelopment of the Beehive Centre. Surprisingly, the Secretary of State called-in the application at the last minute, taking it out of our hands 😲😲😲

We desperately need to see the end of the bloodshed in Ukraine, but the Ukrainian people need to be front and centre of any settlement. We cannot have Putin or Trump dictating the future of Ukraine.

When Labour says they'll bulldoze through local communities and ignore those trying to stop developments, is that what they meant? Labour in Cambridge are in disarray. They don't know what they stand for anymore. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

With local elections in less then 75 days aways, voters should remember how each councillor voted. Residents and campaigners don't want it. Why are Councillors ignoring residents in Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire? Want real change? Vote Green on May 1!
