Really glad Ed Miliband agrees that airport expansion can only take place within environmental limits. We know airport expansion is completely incompatible with reaching our climate targets, and therefore I look forward to hearing him confirm that govt won't back any expansion.

Latest polling from @findoutnow.bsky.social #GreenParty closing in on #LibDems. Just One Percentage Point difference in voter intention. #Davey largely invisible. 4 @greenparty.org.uk MPs and 2 Peers making a huge impression. Campaigning only just starting! #VoteGreen #GetGreen

Latest polling from @findoutnow.bsky.social has @greenparty.org.uk just 2 points behind @libdems.org.uk on TEN PERCENT This is a strong start to 2025 and would give us (under MRP) 2 more MPs in #Bristol 1 new MP in #Huddersfield But as we know we can DOUBLE our MRP polling in real elections.

The #ClimateCafe comes to Holyrood! Very grateful to meet the founder and director Jess who is sharing info to MSPs on climate cafes and the global network. These are informal spaces where likeminded people #DrinkChatAct on climate.

Breathing a sigh of relief that after 15 months of bloodshed, there will finally be a ceasefire in Gaza. My thoughts are with all of those who lost loved ones in this horrific violence, and those who will continue to suffer as a result of the destruction of hospitals, schools & land needed for food

I am encouraged by the news from Doha this evening on the ceasefire & the release of hostages. It is now essential that we bring in much-needed aid to Palestinians & that international partners step up to the plate by rebuilding of Gaza & bring lasting peace.

The PM told me in October that negotiations on a new NHS dental contract would start as soon as possible Since then - silence. People waiting in pain for dental treatment need to know when things will start to get better. At the very least, the Govt should set a date

"The first casualty is truth... it's not about different views... the truth is the truth and the BBC should be really promoting that" – former Green Party Leader @carolinelucas.bsky.social calls out the corporation on Newsnight for referring to Trump's claims rather than referring to them as lies.

As Gaie's MP I tried everything I could to challenge this decision to send her back to prison - including writing to the prisons minister Lord Timpson and the probation service. But they would not budge a millimetre. 🧵... www.channel4.com/news/77-year...

An honour to be named Bristol24/7's Person of the Year! As I said to the paper this week, 2024 has been the best year of my life so far... as well as being fairly stressful and intense on occasion 😅 Looking forward to a wee break, then roll on 2025!

Is Lord Walney, the govt’s “independent” anti-extremism adviser, meeting with the fossil fuel companies being challenged by the peaceful protesters he’s calling extremists? The govt won’t tell us, so today I’m asking him directly. My letter ⬇️

This is dangerous and puts trans youth in an incredibly precarious position. Streeting is ignoring trans voices, ignoring the risk the ban poses and ignoring the desperate need for gender affirming care. The ban must be challenged and immediately reversed.

So called 'senior bankers' were responsible for the 2008 financial crash and continue to rake in mind blowing sums in bonuses. And that's who Rachel Reeves has picked to tell public services to spend less money. The country didn't vote for Austerity 2.0.

A lot could be said about today’s 'new milestones'. But there has been little focus on one major omission: the UK has no credible plan for how we will cope with extreme changes in the climate. That’s why I’m calling for an extra mission: a National Adaptation Plan A short 🧵

On farming & inheritance tax, MPs should focus on - land being bought up to avoid tax - how to close loophole without jeopardising ordinary family farms - farming should provide a decent income - how to create a food system that rewards sustainable farming I set out my views in detail for @EDP24👇
