🚨I’ve just been to 10 Downing Street to deliver a letter to the PM - urging him to take up #EllasLaw and to make clean air a human right for all. The longer it takes him & his Govt to clean up our dirty, toxic air, the more lives will be put at risk - he *must* support this Bill

RT @CleanAirLondon: 59 MP’s have now signed @CarolineLucas’ Early Day Motion calling on the Government to support the ‘Clean Air (Human Rights) Bill’ #EllasLaw! Today is #SecondReading but we’re 8th so will probably be postponed 😡 HT @EllaRobertaFdn @GreenJennyJones << Please ask your MP to sign!

It was a delight to join #Brighton’s own @marcthevet in support of @APDAWG1, to learn about the vital work of rescue dogs & urge continued support of our rescue organisations and shelters. And even more of a delight to hold little Charlie!

RT @TheGreenParty: 💬 “Economic growth for its own sake will mean supercharging environmentally destructive industries, when what we need is rapid investment in home insulation and clean and renewable energy."

RT @GreenLondonAMs: 📢 #RentFreezeNow! 🏘️
@sianberry raises the urgency of rent controls and praises the work of @LDNRentersUnion in bringing together people across the political spectrum to sign the letter to Government demanding a temporary ban on landlords increasing rent 👏👏👏

Disappointing @bhlabour voted with Tories to kill off LTNs in @BrightonHoveCC budget, foregoing opportunity to make scheme work for everyone in later committees. Local climate assembly made schemes to cut neighbourhood traffic a priority, now Lab & Tories have undermined progress

Inspiring meeting to discuss an evidence-based approach to drug policy with the amazing people @Cranstoun_org who work to support people & save lives. Offering Overdose Prevention Centres should be seen as vital public service not a criminal offence #socialjustice2023 #Brighton

“Government must seize Russian assets, wherever appropriate, to finance reconstruction of Ukraine & send unmistakeable message that Russian dirty money not welcome in UK”. Pleased to sign this cross-party letter to the PM ⬇️
RT @margarethodge: Today, on the 1-year anniversary of Russia's barbaric invasion of Ukraine, a cross-party group of MPs are calling on @RishiSunak to take a much tougher stance on Russian dirty money.
This must include seizing Russian asset…

Wonderful news that #ElhamModaressi - #Iranian artist detained without charge, tortured & denied health treatment - has been released. But others are still at risk - Iranian regime must end all unjust imprisonments & executions.

Pleased to support Patience Wheatcroft in her bid for Chair of @euromove. As #Brexit continues to unravel, it’s more important than ever that we have a strong European Movement - hers would be a powerful voice for the Movement both inside & outside parliament

Such a shame that @bhlabour now seem to want to scrap local liveable neighbourhoods, and have deleted their warm words of support for LTNs they published on their website 6 months ago… unless maybe their account has been hacked?!?

Ministers shouldn't just be politely asking profiteering private water firms to upgrade outdated sewage infrastructure - nor wanting more 'plans'. Govt should be *forcing* them to do it. While water firms are swimming in cash, the rest of us are swimming in shit. @Feargal_Sharkey

This will be a powerful & poignant ceremony in Ella's memory - tireless campaigning by her mum Rosamund @EllaRobertaFdn serves as an inspiration to so many. #EllasLaw can & must be Ella's long-standing legacy - to make clean air a human right for all.

I asked the Home Secretary whether she would start collecting data on children going missing from hotels. The response doesn't even come close to answering the question. If Ministers can't even answer simple questions, how on Earth can we rely on them to keep children safe?
