Brilliant to see local Green Parties like @reading_greens go from strength to strength!
Greens are already the 2nd largest party on Reading Council, and in less than 3 weeks I'm looking forward to celebrating a record breaking number of Green councillors here & across the UK π
Another year gone by with the mercury soaring past 30Β°C on the solstice here in Reading. The public must realise that climate change results in more tax, inflation & cuts to services. The climate crisis is the cost of living crisis. We cannot afford not to act. #showyourstripes

Staff and customers at @Barclays on Broad Street kindly donated treats over Christmas and continued over January by collecting store cupboard essentials for families facing financial challenges during the difficult winter months.

We are devastated to share the news that JAHA founder, Nick Cooksey, died suddenly and unexpectedly last week.
He had recently had a major breakthrough, taking us a big step closer to achieving our aims, making the timing especially poignant.

Our quiz night at @SirenCraftBrew is coming up next Wednesday. There is still time to get a team together and book if you would like to join us.
Whether you're a quiz whizz or just enjoy an evening out in good company, you'll be very welcome!

What we're seeing on our streets is fascism, and naming it is the first step to defeating it.
These are not protests but white supremacist riots. They are attacking communities, targeting muslim citizens and asylum seekers and, like all fascists, holding the law in contempt. 1/
Two of the things I like most about Reading are its sense of community and its diversity.
With race riots kicking off in other urban centres around the country, this call to @LBC from Darren, a doorman from Reading, is so refreshing.

Good question. A lot of us have been wondering and starting to worry.
This video from bee expert, ecologist @DaveGoulson, has some answers...

You can count on @DaveJMcElroy to speak from the heart, no matter how controversial the topic.
The Green Party was calling for an unconditional ceasefire in Gaza well before Labour and the Conservatives. We put people first. π
