15 years ago today the Tory & Lib Dem government tripled tuition fees.
Young people, our economy and society are robbed of the learning and skills university offers whilst graduates face average debt of £53,000. Education should be a right, not a privilege. Scrap tuition fees.

What would The Green Party do differently from Rachel Reeves?

Pretty much everything.

But here's some pointers in the meantime.

Some people don't like the word 'Islamophobic'. I'm trying to think of another word that describes 'attacking a mosque' or 'attacking people because they "look Muslim".'

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Nigel farage wants you to think that Britain has an immigration problem.

It doesn't.

Britain had a problem with millionaires hoarding wealth, egged on by politicians and the press.

Britain has a problem with racism.

Britain has a @Nigel_Farage problem.

RT if you agree.

Sending all of our thoughts and solidarity to everyone who has been affected by far-right violence this weekend.

Huge thanks and kudos to the many community leaders who have faced down hatred with cool heads and compassion. ����💚💚

Free legal advice:

You don’t have to attend a riot to be prosecuted for conspiracy to riot. You don’t have to be present at a terrorist incident to be guilty of encouraging it.

A lot of Twitter warriors will be getting some unpleasant knocks on the door over the coming weeks.

I am appalled by what has taken place in cities across the UK this weekend. We have seen racists terrorising local communities, raiding shops owned by people of colour, and what look terrifyingly like attempted lynch mobs.

The racist protesters have been chanting “stop the boats". We all know where this poisonous rhetoric has come from.

This MUST be a wake-up call to all politicians who have actively promoted or given in to the rhetoric of immigration being a threat to this country.

My home city of Bristol is a proudly diverse and welcoming city. The hatred and organised political violence of those who came to intimidate our communities has no place here and we stand proudly against Islamophobia, racism and all forms of hate.

I thank the police for their efforts to contain those intent on violence and maintain safety in the city, and thank those who came out in peaceful support of the UK as a tolerant and welcoming country.

Our work now is to unite - in Bristol and nationally - to support those who feel unsafe and targeted by this hatred, and to build that unity against the far-right’s racism, Islamophobia and violence.

“Merseyside police working flat out on a murder inquiry shouldn’t have to waste their time dealing with an attention-seeking backbencher from Essex, one who wrongly blamed riots in Leeds on “the politics of the subcontinent”.Spot on ⁦@gabyhinsliff⁩👇 https://t.co/n5MwgnVfpy

An interesting thread challenging the 'safety' of unconscious bias.

[Tom Scott 🇺🇦 @Tom___Scott]

Who is brave enough to back Brazil’s global tax on billionaires? asks @GeorgeMonbiot.

@TheGreenParty most definitely is - a #WealthTax on the ultra-rich is our party policy.

Labour will find some flimsy excuse not to upset its billionaire donors. https://t.co/Qw7uKoBmDb

Go on, try it!
Maybe you'll then want to do it once a week and who knows, it could be the start o a new fitter, more environmentally friendly you!
What have you got to lose?
