So the Tories stuck by austerity to the bitter end with a final horrifying

to further starve UK of investment and impoverish our public services whilst ignoring and exacerbating climate emergency. Future generations will not forgive this Govt's 14 year failure to act

Hunt was person in charge for 6years pre-covid when Tories starved and ran down NHS &

I'm glad Hunt has stolen Labour's policy to scrap non-dom status. If he really wants the rich to pay their fair share, why doesn't he steal a
https://nitter.privacydev.net/TheGreenParty
policy while he’s at it, with a wealth tax on the super rich?

It’s all very well extending the windfall tax on fossil fuel companies, but the Chancellor has done nothing to close the big gaping loophole that means the British public are paying 90% of the costs for new fossil fuel developments, as companies pocket the profits

The Govt has granted farmers emergency approval to use banned neonicotinoid pesticides for 4 years running. That's not an emergency it's a routine - and it's a routine that's killing our bees. Where's the plan to end harmful pesticides

Every word of this. People in this country are deeply upset about how public services have been cut to the bone under this Govt. Nobody is buying the Tory levelling up myth.

UK Government lags far behind other major European countries in green investment and it is ordinary people who are paying the price.

told the house earlier she is committed to repealing it – but the Govts been saying that for years. How much longer do we have to wait? How many more families will lose their homes?

Today we were due to vote on whether MPs who've been arrested for eg sexual harassment shd be excluded from parliamentary estate. Given everyone shd feel safe in their workplace, I back this proposal, so v disappointed vote was pulled &amp; urge

RT by @CarolineLucas: So sad to be at the council expecting a vote to abruptly close St Bart’s school in Brighton. The extended timetable proposed by the Head and Greens today would be much wiser. Is Labour effectively not even open to leaving the door open for a new Govt to support schools better?

Let me get this straight: on Friday night the PM’s message was so urgent, he had to speak to the nation from a podium in Downing St. But today, given the opportunity to speak to Parliament, there are no urgent statements at all? Why not
