Staff at @StMungos provide a vital lifeline for some of the most vulnerable people in #Brighton & #Hove, and elsewhere. I stand in solidarity with those calling for a fair pay deal and taking strike action today #StMungosStrike

I’ve been so touched by all your kind messages and the support from people stopping me in #brighton today - from the bus driver to people out & about enjoying the sunshine.
Thank you so much - and thank you to everyone who has helped me make a difference 💚 🙏

In 13 years as Green MP, I've called out incompetent Ministers, challenged Government cowardice over #Brexit, demanded more affordable housing, helped secure ban on fracking, stood up for refugees – and always put #BrightonPavilion first. Some of my highlights in Parliament 👇📽️

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 👇

🚨Urgent & deeply worrying news - Iranian citizen #MohammadGhobadlou, arrested protesting for human rights, has been moved to a solitary prison & could be executed within hours. @FCDOGovUK you *must* step in & urge embassy @Iran_in_UK to stop this execution

Insulting verbiage from Minister. Says #CovidInquiry alone can judge relevance of material then says Govt will in fact judge it. Says he respects Hallett then takes her inquiry to court. PM is undermining public confidence, hurting bereaved families & stopping us learning lessons

Halting & reversing nature’s decline is critical to our survival. The Climate & Ecology Bill, which I first introduced to Parliament in 2020, will protect & restore our precious natural world before it’s too late. #CEBill

10 years ago I was arrested for protesting in opposition to #fracking in #Balcombe standing up to the fossil fuel drilling giants. Today Balcombe residents say no yet again. Support their Judicial Review crowdfunder to stop climate-wrecking oil drilling👇

Govt is taking a wrecking ball to our environment - failing to stop sewage scandal, pushing reckless #REULBill & approving 100+ new oil & gas licences. This #WorldEnvironmentDay Govt must change tack - & start by backing #CEBill to protect & restore nature for future generations.

@Keir_Starmer and @RachelReevesMP will you be bold and commit to pass legislation in the first 100 days of government that ushers in the Green New Deal? https://t.co/mIteh9tGeZ

UK citizen & activist Alaa Abd El-Fattah has been unlawfully imprisoned by Egyptian authorities for 10 years. COP27 last year was chance to secure Alaa’s release, yet Govt failed to take it. 7 months on he remains behind bars. Why is Sunak letting this injustice go on?

Hunt's recent budget slipped out a grotesquely unfair requirement for UC recipients to be available to work 30-hour week when their child turns 3, or face sanctions. Many single parents already struggle with current 16-hour requirement - yet Ministers utterly uncaring as usual 👇

Congrats @GreenJennyJones - I’ll be voting against this attack on democracy👇
RT @TheGreenParty: 🚨 The Government are attempting unprecedented action to force through an amendment to the Public Order Act that has already been rejected by Parliament.

Partygate rule-breaking. VIP contracts for mates. Care homes left unprotected. Covid Inquiry is vital to ensure lessons are learned & bereaved families get justice. So every Govt delay or obstruction is a mark of shame. We need the truth, the whole truth & we need it now.

🚨 BROKEN: Yet another Tory manifesto promise. Govt pledged to ban live animal exports, yet Ministers have just announced they're dropping the Kept Animals Bill which would have done so. This is a total betrayal of trust from the Government. The campaign isn't stopping here.
