In 2010 #Brighton Pavilion made history by electing me UK’s 1st Green MP & it’s been the honour of my life. My open letter to residents & friends explains why I’m not standing at next General Election. With love & gratitude, I hope I've done you proud 👇

RT by @CarolineLucas: Abuses will continue.
Thames Water to get green light to hike bills by 33% by 2030, bailout funded by customers. Fleeced again.
Company raising capital from customers who won't own anything.
Sewage dumping, dividends, exorbitant exec pay will continue.

RT by @CarolineLucas: Water bills to rise by a whopping 36% over the next 5 years. Yet water company bosses have received over £25m in bonuses and incentives since 2019. It’s yet another gigantic corporate scam at the public’s expense. We are being ripped off.

RT by @CarolineLucas: I was shocked to find that this government COULD find out how Israel is using the F35 Strike Fighters whose parts are made in the UK - it's just chosen not to. Until we suspend all arms export licences to Israel, the UK will remain complicit in the killing of civilians.

What a shameful day. Starmer came to power pledging to restore trust in politics - this is destroying trust & wrecking lives. A massive injustice was done to #Waspiwomen - it’s a political choice not to remedy it

RT by @CarolineLucas: The failure of the water industry is a stain on our country.
The Govt has an opportunity to fix it, but they are choosing to ignore the obvious: profit has no place in water.
The public wants public ownership. The Green Party wants public ownership. When will the Govt catch up?

RT by @CarolineLucas: Latest @EnvAgency data finds 6.3 million homes are at risk of flooding from rivers, sea & surface water. Yet UK's adaptation plan lacks ambition, has no vision & isn't working
Adapting to a rapidly changing climate has to be a Govt priority. Nature is our ally in this. We must protect it & seek out nature-based solutions

RT by @CarolineLucas: On behalf of @TheGreenParty MPs I joined this event today. We, with colleagues of many parties and none, call on the UK govt to stop arming Israel.
I then took part in a debate on this in Westminster Hall, where dozens of MPs spoke passionately. But no movement from government.

Thank goodness for @susannareid100 making a positive case for immmigration. Why can’t Labour see that chasing after answers from Italy’s far right & repeating their anti-migrant rhetoric won’t stop small boat crossings but will boost Reform & Farage in the polls? @bbclaurak
