A mature & healthy, well established Acacia in King William Walk is subject to a Conservation Area notice for removal. Its “removal” would result in a clear & permanent loss of local green character. There are better methods than removal.

The only realistic option is to nationalise our water supply.

[The Green Party @TheGreenParty]

89% of the world's people want to see governments around the world take more action on the climate crisis.

We're the majority. The climate denial of the Tories and Reform is the minority

So, starting this Earth Day, let's speak up and show governments we want climate action NOW

[Greenwich Green Party @GreenGreenwich]

Greenwich Greens were on BBC London live with Eddie Nestor yesterday morning representing the concerns of residents about the threats to health posed by Silvertown Tunnel which opens on Monday.
Do report increased noise, air pollution and congestion do us.
And to @MumsForLungs.

[George Edgar @GeorgeEdgar23]

100%. A short-sighted view of what security means and what our national interests are.

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

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

Hi Ed.

[Sian Berry @sianberry]

The Chancellor’s stated goal today is ‘raising living standards in every part of the UK’ but more and bigger airports will serve only the very richest aviation bosses and the most frequent flyers whose wealth doesn’t help people’s daily lives get better.

[John Vink @vinkjohn]

Father François Ponchaud passed away today. He rang the bell about the Khmer Rouge exactions in his book ‘Cambodge Année Zéro’, published in 1977. I was privileged to photograph him working in his beloved Cambodia:

I don't often repost a Conservative, but Ben Gascoigne is right.

It was fantastic to welcome @natehiggins to our meeting.Such an inspirational & hard working councillor who has done sterling work since being elected, including using the law to challenge Newham council to implement the right of all parties to be represented on all committees.
