RT by @CarolineLucas: Some headlines from these council elections:
🔴 We'll have a Labour govt soon
🟠 Lib Dems did better than Conservatives
🟢 Greens progressed strongly especially in their General Election target seats
Bizarre that metropolitan journalists thought Reform a more important story

RT by @CarolineLucas: Here’s an important bit of data visualisation that I don’t think I’ve seen from anyone yet. I’ve crunched the numbers and put them in a chart myself. This is the proportional change of seats for each party:
🟢 +69%
🟠 +25%
🔴 +19%
🔵 -48%

Yet again the Govt is doubling down on planet-choking oil & gas - this time *underneath* offshore wind projects. However hard they try - powering fossil fuel production with renewables won't change the fact that most emissions are caused by burning it 🤦
