You know how many politicians rarely say what they mean. Well there are exceptions. Here is straight talking about the anti-strike laws and why this corrupt government is scared of opposition. @GreenJennyJones talking truth to power
My complaint to the police complaints body IOPC about why #metpolice refuse to report, or subsequently investigate, a christmas party at Downing Street when they had officers guarding the place inside and out.
The government objected to @GreenJennyJones calling them liars for ripping up environmental protections they promised to keep, but had no problem with her calling them "systematically corrupt". Jenny outlines how Tory Party donations = policy change = pollution = share rise.
If MPs are keen to spy on poor people's bank accounts, why don't they try it on themselves first? @GreenJennyJones Red flags for undeclared incomes?
Plans to spy on bank accounts of the poor, disabled and carers (due in the Autumn Statement). @BigBrotherWatch#ToryCorruption
Just for the record. @GreenJennyJones was right. You can call the government liars in the Lords. After all, what else would you call it? Glad to see the apology from the Government whip.
You can also say the government are "systematically corrupt". Any other suggestions?
Health and Care Bill, Lords last night.
"Privatisation hasn't worked. It hasn't delivered on promises to increase quality and decrease costs... Most people do not want a privatised NHS, they want a public service because that will give them the best results." @GreenJennyJones
Quick question "If a company wants a government contract. Is it better to have a friend in the cabinet, or just give a large donation to the Conservative Party or both?" #corruption#ToryCorruption@GreenJennyJones
The lies we can see, can be challenged. With targetted digital marketing the lies are hidden on individual timelines. Have entered an era where "...truth and integrity are impediments to being elected" @GreenJennyJones calls out #BorisTheLiar in Lords
#ElectionsBill#Brexit
"This bill is an attack on democracy within parliament. Rather than taking back control, they are taking away parliament's sovereign power to vote for or against laws... We need to cut our losses and rejoin the EU." @GreenJennyJones
"If the water companies pollute, then they should be fined, but the consumers shouldn't pay those fines" @GreenJennyJones "Water companies can use shares to pay the fines and if they keep creating a mess then the public will own those companies, at no extra cost."
#sewage
"We have a government that is passing rules for us, while not obeying laws itself. The police protect the powerful, while getting more oppressive powers to use against the voiceless. This is an autocracy, not a democracy." @GreenJennyJones#PoliceBill#ProtestIsNotACrime
Lords defeated government 4 times on the #IllegalMigrationBill last night. #GreenJennyJones telling the Minister that his policies, are not the will of the people.
"The only decent thing to do is... don't break any more laws"
#Rwanda#SuellaBraverman
Lords defeat government draconian laws #PoliceBill. A staggering 14 defeats for the government in one historic evening, with a further 5 government amendments being withdrawn. Includes 4 new offences that are now out of this Bill and can't be reinserted.
