Stop blaming the poor. Stop blaming the low paid workers. Stop blaming the refugees and immigrants.
Point the finger where it belongs! At the government and the neoliberal establishment.
Austerity is always a choice and it is always the poor and working class that suffer.
🚨 BREAKING 🚨
The Green Party now has over 190,000 members!
Membership growth, polling surges, by-election wins and defections... the Green Party is making hope normal again.
Join today!
The turmoil within 'Your Party' has caused widespread despair.
But here is some hope!
This is a proposal to move on from yesterday's events - with the grassroots taking over.

🚨 SUMMARY: What happened with "Your Party" today:
- At 11:11, Zarah Sultana posted a link to sign up for "Your Party" membership. The link is on a different domain from what was previously used on other "Your Party" communications
- The membership fees are £5 a month or £55 a year for regular, or £2.50 a month or £25 annually for concessions
- This was followed by an email to subscribers at 11:17
- Sultana claims that "Your Party" had reached 20,000 members at 13:30
- Jeremy Corbyn and four other MPs released a statement at 14:07, urging supporters not to sign up, cancel direct debits if they have, and stating they are seeking legal advice. Zarah Sultana's name was left off the letter
- Corbyn then also emailed members shortly after with the statement
- PoliticsHome then reported that a "formal split" in Your Party now seems "inevitable", according to several sources
- Zarah Sultana hit back at 14:44, branding "Your Party" as a "sexist boys club", and admits she did not have permission from Corbyn to launch paid memberships earlier. She has now asked Corbyn to meet with her
@jeremycorbyn@zarahsultana What are you playing at? Seriously? So much work has been going on already with thousands of people on the ground, inspired by the hope of YourParty but this is seriously concerning & to be honest I am thinking it is best to go with the Green Party.
The proposed Corbyn-Sultana new left party galvanised so much support and hope.
And it is clearly a bit of a shitshow.
Given the country is veering towards fascism, this is unforgivable.
If it's not resolved soon, people will switch off and just bet everything on the Greens.
A protest was painted in town,
A judge knocking justice right down.
Banksy struck bold,
Now ministers scold-
“Quick! Get that outlaw shut down!”

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.
No refugee underfunded a school.
No refugee closed a hospital.
No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.
We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
@DavidLammy David, this stuff doesn't work anymore (if it ever did). It's just hot air. It has no value or power. Israel knows this and ignores it. You know that they know it and will ignore it. This leaves the only reason you're doing it is in order to say that you condemned it.

We will never descend into the gutter of blaming minorities for the problems in our society.
It is the unity of all communities that can take on the rich and powerful — and win.

A hallmark of an authoritarian state is where "terrorist" is stripped of its meaning, and applied to people and movements which are clearly not terrorists.
