RT by @CarolineLucas: For the Bank holiday Start the Week on @BBCRadio4, it’s Britishness, not Mayday paganism but protest with @JackieKayPoet, the future of Englishness with @CarolineLucas, and turbulent interbellum years with Simon Heffer. Not a Morris Dancer in sight.

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: My point neatly confirmed by @bbclaurak

All interviewees and commentators are blue or red

She’s wearing green, but that’s no substitute for a Green in the studio

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%

RT by @CarolineLucas: Would be a fantastic outcome if @carla_denyer won.

More political diversity in parliament and would also mean Labour MPs don’t take their constituencies for granted.

Many don’t - but some very much do!

RT by @CarolineLucas: BREAKING: No overall control 🗳️
Bristol City Council is without a majority from any party. Out of a possible 70 seats, the Green Party has won the most at 34.

The Conservatives have lost 7 seats, with Labour losing 3 ➡️ http://bbc.in/3y4y1Ji

RT by @CarolineLucas: 🎉 Huge congratulations to @bristolgreen on gaining 10 councillors on Bristol City Council, taking their total to 34 and becoming the largest party!

Yet again the Govt is doubling down on planet-choking oil &amp; 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 🤦

@amolrajan asks the Greens co-leader Adrian Ramsay for his assessment of the party's performance in the English local council elections.

RT by @CarolineLucas: A General Election has never been more urgent.

The outgoing Government has no intention of making different decisions on warmer homes, energy investment, road building or airport expansion. It must go before it tries to cancel completely the Climate Change Act it’s breaking.

[2024-05-03 10:22 UTC]

Momentous ruling: this Govt's dangerous lack of concrete climate plans &amp; investment is unlawful. There is no time to lose now - Govt must go back to the drawing board &amp; urgently pull together a credible plan to put the UK back on track to delivering our climate commitments
