Why isn't Andy Burnham working for us?
He knows our water and energy bills are unsustainable. He knows that we are being ripped off, but doesn't acknowledge it, and certainly doesn't do anything about it.
Andy, you are alienating your voters!
Deliberate misinformation from @BBCNews . Polanski can’t overturn the motion whether he wanted to or not. The motion can’t be removed or amended for two years. @BBCNews knows this but chooses to frame their headline as a personal attack.
@ZackPolanski did well to stand up to @bbclaurak questioning. The insistence on Green democracy and how that works - bottom up not top down - is beyond the understanding of those used to autocracy.

"Even voters who know little about Palestine will struggle to understand why Labour is turning on its own local administrations.
The impression it creates is not of a party that’s been renewed as a force for ‘hope’, but of one that remains petty, vindictive and self-serving."
I’ve met so many people recently who aren’t really interested in politics but want the Genocide in Palestine to end.
They are also outraged at the banning of Sally Rooney’s books.
The Labour government is misreading the mood of the country.
Most of us do have a moral compass.
Alex Gibney: “There was an estimate that what [Elon Musk] did by suddenly cutting USAID would cost through disease and starvation as many as 14M lives. Even if you discount that, we know within a year of those cuts where they were literally burning food going to starving children, 500K children died. This is really a crime against humanity, but he makes a joke about it, I put USAID into the woodchipper. What he put into the woodchipper were children”
Labour are really showing themselves up.
They're comparing those of us demanding an end to the genocide with Reform and Tommy Robinson.
Keir Starmer may have gone - but his politics and our Governments commitment to arms licences very much remain.

Labour still hasn’t grasped the political effect of weaponising antisemitism: all people take away is that, if you’re horrified by the genocide in Gaza, Andy Burnham and Bridget Phillipson think you’re basically a Nazi.
Nobody buys this, and it just throughly pisses people off.
The Labour Party has fundamentally miscalculated. In Sheffield and other cities it is now faced with the prospect of collapsing local government because the Greens have criticised Israel.
This is now no longer about the Zionism is racism motion. It's about whether the political/media class has the right to dictate to us what we are allowed to believe.
Antisemitism is serious.
That’s precisely why it should never be weaponised as a political football. Labour doing so should disgust people across every community.
And all this while they continue to arm a genocide and lock up pensioners.
Did you know that we have a book club 📚👀? Join North Staffordshire Green Party today if you'd like to find out more and get involved!

I’m so ashamed of this country. I harbour so much resentment for @Keir_Starmer. And I’m so embarrassed for @andyburnham. Lift the proscription on Palestine Action & stop lying about genocide, Israel & terrorism. Solidarity to Sally Rooney.
Did @itvpeston ever cover any of the multiple meetings between Farage’s funders & the Russian embassy back in 2018? I can’t recall but maybe I’m mistaken. Was Farage ever asked why he voted in the pro-Kremlin bloc in the EU parliament? Or why Arron Banks thought Crimea is to Russia what the Isle of Wight is to Britain? Or why LeaveEU denied Russian involvement in Skripal?
All of this is clearly true. We are under attack because we are the only none establishment party.
Although I do worry about the taxing of ents, I’m not sure it’s the right thing to do. What have the peaceful tree herders done to deserve this? Protect the Ents!
The Green Party is under enormous attack. We
- represent the majority that hates the killing of innocent children
- will tax billionaires
- will cap ents
- will renationalise water, gas, electricity and the NHS
- stop mining and using fosssil fuels
No wonder we are under attack!
The point about Polansky is that his views are so bad that he shouldn’t even be allowed into the political arena. Democracy is simply not strong enough to cope with him being there, so we must get him out before democracy gets a chance to decide. This way, we keep ourselves safe.
