Sunak's insurmountable problem is he just can't tell people the plan is working when they know first-hand it isn't. Millions of people are struggling every day to make ends meet.

Since neither of the 2 biggest parties are willing to increase taxes on the super wealthy to invest in public services, or reverse the obscene 2 child benefit cap, or insulate homes, their crocodile tears about the most vulnerable are just that - totally insincere

He's been a councillor in his native city of Norwich and has run two national environmental charities, and is standing in the new parliamentary seat of Waveney Valley which straddles the Norfolk and Suffolk border.

RT by @CarolineLucas: General Election 2024 is an opportunity for #Bristol to consolidate its green reputation by electing an MP who is resolutely focused on #ClimateAction … and unambiguous on the matter of genocide in #Gaza.
@carla_denyer is that candidate.

Very sad to hear of deaths of 4 more Israeli hostages, including Nadav Popplewell, held by Hamas since 7 October. My thoughts are with their loved ones. The unconditional release of all remaining hostages & an end to conflict must be a priority

Grim - Farage's views & methods are pure Trump. He’s spent his political career whipping up nasty, racist, populist division & rather than simply trying to push Tories even further to the right, he’s now setting up an even more extreme alternative power base. Profoundly dangerous

Nuclear weapons are illegal & immoral - chilling to hear Labour try to normalise them on grounds they’re “essential” for jobs & public services. WMD divert money *away* from public sector. Labour argument means all countries should acquire them - making us all less safe

RT by @CarolineLucas: I live in Bristol Central which @ElectCalculus poll ⏬️ indicates may return our first @TheGreenParty MP Carla Denyer
My politically independent observations
Vote Green signs are in houses all around
@carla_denyer is known & popular locally
Greens hold 34 of 70 council seats in Bristol
Greens won all 14 council seats in the constituency just weeks ago
Experienced Green councillors in my ward really are excellent & engaged
Greens are fighting hard
Bristol Central is a new and unusual constituency (& an ace place to live!)...
We still poll as one of highest REMAIN votes
With one of lowest age range (I'm an oldie here👍🏼)
High level of young graduates (students love to stay living in Bristol...it's pretty beautiful AND chilled)
Even local Tories hate the Tories, and will probably switch to Green not Labour
A Bristol Central "spirit" is generally "rebellious" (suits me down to the ground...ha)
It's one to watch on July 4th
This post is not taking political sides btw
I wish the race wasn't between two great women with strong political voices, but it is
