Both of the actions you see in these photos potentially amount to the offence of ‘public nuisance’. One is punishable with “long, long prison sentences” & the other is rewarded with huge bonuses & billions in profits. Why the disparity? What does this mean for the rule of law?

I've just attended a powerful briefing with legal experts in Parliament about the Government's ongoing export of parts for F-35 fighter jets then used by Israel in Gaza. They were clear these violate international law and must end. I'll be campaigning to ensure that happens.

This has nothing to do with ‘cycling culture’ and everything to do with unregulated capitalist enterprise. When I was Hackney Cabinet member for Transport, Lime failed our procurement test and I delivered the first geotagged on-road cycle hire bays in the U.K. What happened?

Hackney South MP Meg Hillier - to whom I came 2nd for The Green Party with 24% in the GE - just backed Keir Starmer to CUT pensioners winter fuel allowance. And voted AGAINST lifting the 2 child benefit limit. #Hackney has one of the highest #poverty rates in the UK.
