We may not quite be Coldplay DUA LIPA SZA but if you're coming to Glastonbury Festival this year don't miss Angela Rayner 🌹 Caroline Lucas Stephen Bush John Harris & me at Glastonbury Left Field
Saturday 1.30pm. A Change is Gonna Come!

It's been yet another awful news week in UK politics, so thought I'd share a story from #Brighton that did make me smile this week: looks like 4 Peregrine Falcon chicks have hatched at Sussex Heights this year! You can view the nestbox camera here: sussexheights.co.uk/sussex-heights…

This video is a powerful reminder that we should never take democracy for granted. If you have the right to vote, use it - whether it's tomorrow in the UK, or, if you're an EU citizen, at next month's European elections Europarl UK. youtube.com/watch?v=LoiAAD…

'How much more suffering has to happen before he acts to prevent further UK complicity?'

Green MP Caroline Lucas asks Rishi Sunak if Israeli troops move into Rafah, 'will that be the moment when the Prime Minister finally finds the moral backbone to ban arms exports to Israel?'.

I've submitted further objection to the planning application Royal Mail submitted in #Patcham #Brighton . With so many inconsistencies in their supporting documents, I'm not confident RM would be responsible custodians of such an ecologically sensitive site carolinelucas.com/caroline/parli…

Israel does have the right to defend itself. It does not have the right to break international humanitarian law, bomb aid workers or act so disproportionately that over 34,000 Palestinians have now been killed

Sickened Home Office have posted a promotional video about detaining asylum seekers to send to an unsafe country, Rwanda. This is tantamount to state-sponsored human trafficking & it's being done the day before elections for party political purposes.
We are better than this.

Important debate in Parliament today on the shocking levels of youth homelessness. This is a huge problem in #Brighton & it's time we had a national strategy to end youth homelessness, matched with nationwide reform of our broken private rental sector The Clock Tower Sanctuary

This was a very serious question about a senior UK politician getting death threats through groups set up and promoted by Tory staffers. The PM didn't even bother to give it a proper response. He pledged to stand up to extremists - but apparently not if they're in his own party.

Sunak was rightly laughed at during #PMQs when he had gall to actually say 'we can't have cherry picking of important international agreements' - oblivious to the irony he's been doing exactly that with the immoral, illegal Safety of Rwanda Act he made law last week.

It's important that reports like this one from BBC News (UK) tell people how much the Rwanda scheme is actually costing us. It's not £3k. Eg. IPPR estimates £228k. People deserve to know how much extra this Government is willing to pay to be this cruel. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

The #G7 commitment to phase out coal power by early 2030s falls far short of what the #climateemergency demands.
For a liveable future we need to urgently phase out *all* planet-choking fossil fuels - coal, oil & gas - & richest countries must lead the way independent.co.uk/news/energy-ap…

Great to see the new Brighton & Hove Albion Foundation community hub is now open. The Foundation are such a force for good in the city - more information and opening times can be found here: bhafcfoundation.org.uk/bhafc-foundati…

UK dictionaries exclude humans from their definitions of nature. But language matters & if we want to repair our relationship with nature - we also need to redefine it & recognise that #WeAreNature . Join the campaign and sign the petition here: wearenature.org

Great to catch up with Sian Berry at the climate change hearing today N ok to airport expansion #glbalwarming #greenparty

At the Gatwick expansion hearing on climate change today supporting local Greens Green Cllr Scott Cllr Paul Chandler Jonathan Essex, CAGNE GACCgatwick and many others from XR and beyond.

The business running the airport wants to make it as big as Heathrow and we all say NO!

Record numbers of homeless people in UK - and record numbers of children with no place to call home. What a damning indictment of 14 years of Tory failure and inaction in the face of a nationwide #HousingCrisis . The Clock Tower Sanctuary

Brighton and Hove Citizens making such an important point about key workers: we will lose them if we can't get rents under control. #housing #Brighton Brighton & Hove Citizens brightonandhovenews.org/2024/04/26/com…
