Thank you @GWDeclaration for the enthusiastic encouragement to RON me! My response? Trans Right are human rights. An attack on trans rights are an attack on women’s rights, on lesbian rights, on queer rights, on feminism. 🏳️⚧️💪
Watching politicians and mainstream media suddenly change their rhetoric on the genocide makes me feel like I’ve truly gone crazy. Can someone please confirm that a few weeks ago they villainized us on the front pages for being against this while they were very much pro-genocide.
A lot of the people that say we should keep politics out of football have spent the entire evening trying to politicise England Women’s football team winning a tournament
Proud to say I am absolutely pro trans rights. Trans rights are human rights. 💚
Today I am pleading with Green Party members to only rank candidates who are explicitly pro trans rights. Everyone else goes below RON. None of this ‘legitimate concerns’ bullshit. Your solidarity shouldn’t waver just because a candidate is solid in other areas.
Myself and Melanie Earp, as candidates for Management Coordinator on GPEx, promise to stand up for trans rights and intersectional justice in the Green Party The other candidate is a founding signatory of the GWD, a transphobic group I hope members make the right choice

CHLOE KELLY, SHOUT IT LOUD!!! England are EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS! 🏆 #BBCFootball #WEURO2025
Is that so
Now we know why Rishi Sunak refuses to negotiate with NHS staff. He wants the strikes to go ahead, so he can blame doctors and nurses for his failure. #PMQs
No one is uniting NHS workers more than this man. With every single tweet, NHS workers are getting more annoyed, and more resolute. United we stand. #SOSNHS
A message to all NHS staff ahead of BMA strike action.

Dear Wes Streeting… What really undermines our movement is a Labour government that turns its back on workers and lashes out at unions instead of listening to them. This is a defining moment. Stop attacking those who keep our public services running.
Dear resident doctors…
Claudia’s advice during my own campaign was critical to me being elected, beating the Tories and Labour in a seat we’ve never held before. I place a lot of weight on this endorsement and yet another successful campaign organiser coming out in the support of Zack. #VoteZack
Claudia Fisher is a Green Party councillor in Horsham. She was also the former Field Organiser for the South East. I'm really delighted to have her backing in the Green Party Leadership Race. #BackZack
“If you don’t like the changes that we’ve made, I say the door is open and you can leave” - Keir Starmer, Feb 2023. Was the expectation that no one was meant to have a political life outside of the Labour Party?
Corbyn’s new party is designed to put Farage in No10 ... Sultana, Lali and others are using the same playbook/rhetoric that the KPD used to pave Hitler's path to victory... I am not exaggerating ... 1/... thenewworld.co.uk/paul-mason-cor…
Wikipedia is one of the few remaining unalloyed Good Things about the internet... so *of course* it's being put at risk by the Online Safety Act.
Wikipedia is currently in a legal battle with the UK government to try and stop the platform being censored in the UK - or even completely blocked - thanks to the Online Safety Act.
2 out of every 5 people arrested for rioting last year had been previously reported to the police for domestic abuse. Remember that when they tell you it's all about legitimate concerns and protecting women.
NEW: @wesstreeting has been slammed by several trade union general secretaries after claiming doctors' strikes undermine the trade union movement. 'Don't question the mandate of the doctors when your own constituents came within a whisker of removing you.'
The Online Safety Act is a clumsy, naive, and ultimately ableist piece of legislation. We’re already seeing instances of over-censorship and people who need support being shut out from receiving it. It needs repealing and rethinking.
Well done to everyone who campaigned to ensure age verification for pornography was in the Online Safety Act! Today it comes into force and while no doubt there will be some who get around it, it means young kids in particular won’t be stumbling on violent and harmful porn.
