    Yes, Palestine was on the ballot. But so was more affordable housing, safer, cleaner streets and developing an economy that builds wealth and health in our communities. Our plan for Lewisham is underpinned by justice. Read it👇 lewisham.greenparty.org.uk/manifesto

    I have today resigned from the Labour party and joined @TheGreenParty 💚 Labour has lost its moral compass and we need a bold, eco-socialist vision to take on the far right. Statement from me 👇

    Just walked in from mad weekend! Final convo was with someone who initially told me he was planning to vote for Iain Duncan Smith but ended with him shaking my hand, saying I’d won his vote. Don’t let anyone tell you change isn’t possible. #ge2019 #labourdoorstep #votelabour

    I ignored this advice. First and foremost, I am accountable to my constituents and the wider Lewisham community. Community first, party second

    I’ve been contacted by Labour Councillors rightfully outraged that they were advised not to attend counter demonstrations last night. For many councillors this isn’t a choice. It is them, their communities, families and friends these fascists are attacking and targeting.

    Tomorrow's rollout of Live Facial Recognition in Lewisham is deeply concerning LFR has serious racial bias and privacy implications, is legally dubious and has never been debated in parliament. Local consultation has been minimal, with elected members notified just 2 weeks ago🧵

    A Live Facial Recognition deployment will be coming to Lewisham. This technology is used to find people who threaten or cause harm, those who are wanted or have outstanding arrest warrants issued by the court. The deployment will also be supported by local officers.

    This is disgraceful dishonesty from @Heidi_Labour It is well documented that this @UKLabour government continues to send f-35 components and military support to Israel, as reported by @declassifiedUK, @BritPalCommitt, @MiddleEastEye and @CAATuk

    This is absolutely shocking and I’m ashamed to be in the same party as this person. Is this what the NEC meant when it said it only selected the “highest quality candidates” - ones that meet with far-right groups and pander to racist, anti-immigration politics

    Some reflections from me on events in Aldershot this week and how I am listening to concerns being raised by local residents.

    As @zarahsultana said recently, the choice is socialism or barbarism. Winning that fight is dependent on collaboration

    Progressive, collaborative and bold politics is a huge part of the Green Party. The threat we face is Reform & this Labour government. The decisions we make are up to our collective membership. We'll all meet this moment together. theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

    For the conspiracists: No, I’m not a plant 🌱 😆 Yes, I’m a labour activist and proud because only Labour can deliver the change that this country so desperately needs.

    Funny how when asked to explain this principled anti-racist stance, MPs like Angela Smith appear to not know the first thing about Anti-Racism.
