I have made @PSCupdates's Councillor Pledge for Palestine!
I am committing to advocate for Palestine and to combat complicity in Israel's crimes.
Follow this link to ask your local councillors to do the same: https://t.co/ydOVko9WCr
You don't need a big party machine with lots of money to run a decent campaign. Just hard-working, dedicated people who focus on their community and the issues that mean the most to them.
Progressive, community politics beats hatred and division. 🧡💚
Yeesssssss!!
We won by 144 votes.
Unbelievable result
Provide an alternative to Reform
Thanks to the @TheGreenParty@ZackPolanski & the other independent for stepping aside to beat Reform
@councilsUK@ElectionMapsUK
If anyone is in any doubt how the Labour Party treats its Cllrs the take a look at this
This is the Labour official who has been watching over our every move and controlling the Labour Group
We walked away from this - they cannot control us anymore
SIX CLLRS RESIGN 🥀
‘Today we end decades of Labour stranglehold on our City
Starmers Labour takes ordinary people’s votes for granted in our communities, our City & the Country
There are now progressive alternatives
This is the beginning of the end for Labour in Nottingham
@CllrJWilliamson@MyWakefield Welcome! It's a tough thing to do,but it's so freeing to be able to keep to your values and hold your head up. Solidarity from @broxtoweindys !
If anyone was believing the hype, this is the view of a recent senior Nottm City Councillor who sees #Broxtowe as a rotten borough and Beeston, Stapleford, Kimberley and Eastwood as “meaningless suburban towns”. It is a remarkable insult and shows what the City thinks of us.
So proud of @broxtoweindys delivering our @broxtowebc budget to cabinet tonight.
• No cuts to jobs & Services ✂️⛔️
• Building new council houses 🏘️
• Lowest rent in East Mids 💷
• ethical investments 🌳
• 100 Broxtowe events+free play days
• Sound finances for Broxtowe ✅
Help us fight the National Party machines and let us,our residents & our communities have a voice & a seat at the political table in May.
Never before has it been so vital to break the 2 Party system and provide a strong community alternative to Reform

So many passionate, community minded people (familiar faces and new) coming together to share ideas about how we can have positive impact in Broxtowe and beyond. Feeling really grateful and inspired 😁
Not even a month old and what a crowd for our first members meeting.
Give people hope, agency & a sense of community & they will turn up
The revolution starts in the back room of the local British Legion ✊
She’s listened to the ‘non -dom community’ but not the WASPi women, the pensioners, the charities demanding a rethink on the 2 child benefit cap, the working class communities left behind.
It’s astounding that this is the LABOUR Party, a LABOUR government!
Sink the Bill?
The Climate & Nature Bill?
This Bill?
🏭reduce greenhouse gases
🌎reverse damage to natural world
🙋♀️launch climate citizen assembly
When will backbenchers get a backbone and show some leadership & courage?
Where is the fight back? What will it take?
Nobody is ‘hard to reach’. We have to make our methods of communication reachable.
Another example of small politics 👇
Regular Community Meetings 👇
Bringing the local Cllrs, the Police and Council Officials out into the heart of the Community.
No-one voted for this. We expected it from the Tories, but not from @UKLabour. Make no mistake, this is a choice and they’re “choosing” not to rebuild QMC until 2037 🏨💔
Build from the grassroots up
Get back into your communities
The political systems have failed us
Rebuilding a genuine civil society means constructing & supporting organisations deeply rooted in communities & built around people
This is what our Cllrs do 👇
Our Broxtowe ��️
