What will it take for this Govt to actually call out racism? It could not be clearer here, yet rather than condemning it, they wheel out a white man to say it wasn't about race or gender and we should all move on? Solidarity with

Excited to be speaking at

about my new book
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23AnotherEngland
. The right has hijacked our sense of Englishness. What a beautiful place to talk about how we reclaim it and build a fairer, greener and more progressive country.

This is an act of colossal self sabotage. We should be investing in the energy storage, interconnectors &amp; infrastructure needed for a renewables &amp; energy efficiency revolution - not doubling down on the very fuel that’s driving up prices &amp; accelerating

Any new oil and gas is incompatible with the UK’s climate commitments. I’ve added my name to the

campaign which is taking the UK Government to court for approving this climate-wrecking oil field – click here to do the same:

So depressing from Starmer. We've already had 14 years of austerity - hasn't the penny dropped yet that it simply does not work? If
https://nitter.privacydev.net/UKLabour
won't invest in the UK, why do they think anyone else will?

You know it's bad when Conservatives from Rudd to Patel are telling this Govt not to politicise extremism. What we're seeing from Sunak's Govt now is downright dangerous. The issue of extremism is far too serious to be used as an election strategy.

RT by @CarolineLucas: The elephant in the room when it comes to public finances is the £40billion loss of tax revenue every year due to Brexit. It dwarfs the discussions about £2billion more here, £2billion less there.

Thank goodness for
https://nitter.privacydev.net/HughFW
- why on earth does Labour prefer more austerity to alternatives like a wealth tax on the super rich? They should listen to eg
https://nitter.privacydev.net/PatrioticMills
. It’s plainly unfair that assets are taxed so much less than income

Just dire that Rachel Reeves still refuses to invest in the green economy - public investment crowds in private investment &amp; cuts fuel bills. Instead of locking themselves into arbitrary fiscal rules, Labour should be honest that borrowing to invest is sound economics

RT by @CarolineLucas: in Brighton knocking on doors for @sianberry. Residents agree:
💚 whoever next gov is, we need Greens in parliament to speak truth to power
💚 a Green MP = an independent, unwhipped voice in Parliament. Brighton knows how special this is.

The Government's rail reform plans are way off track and passengers are paying the price. Time to bring our railways back into public ownership to address the cost of living and climate crisis with affordable public transport for all.

RT by @CarolineLucas: “The magic money tree is an inherently conservative narrative. It deliberately propagates a false understanding of how the economy works… It seeks to delegitimise public spending, framing policies that improve conditions for ordinary people as unrealistic and wasteful.”
