The messages I get from constituents affected by dementia are incredibly moving so I'm pleased to support

bid to put dementia on the agenda at the next election and transform dementia care for everyone.

In all that talk of change, did they mention climate change

The Secretary of State for Education insults schools by saying "Teachers are there to teach children facts, not push the agendas of campaign groups." Horribly ironic as it is she &amp; PM politicising sex &amp; relationships ed which is really about safety and respect.

RT by @CarolineLucas: morbidly funny how the first of starmer's new pledges contrasts with the first of his old pledge card, the new third directly contradicts the old sixth, can also make a case for the new fifth versus the spirit of the old 4, 8 and 9

In the meantime folks, don't drink the water or worry about vanishing wildlife, flooded farms &amp; streets, rising food prices, cold, unaffordable homes &amp; dirty air cutting lives short or global climate change &amp; ecological breakdown. It's not 1997. When will

RT by @CarolineLucas: The ICJ is considering the South African application that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza again tomorrow. These are some of the binding provisional measures that the ICJ told Israel it must implement. I'm not going to get ahead of the court, but I think it's pretty clear that Israel has not abided by these measures (para 80 for instance). Israel may ignore any ruling, but the international and legal consequences, including for Israel's allies who are also bound by the Genocide Convention, may be far reaching. We'll see.

Thanks

- it was great to champion my favourite bird of all - the swift. It is so frustrating that there are sometimes really simple things this Govt could be doing to protect nature, and STILL they won't take action!

Today at
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23pmqs
Sunak claimed the UK government is doing everything it can to support people in Gaza. How does he dare even make that claim, in the same breath he refuses to suspend arms to Israel?

&amp; literally thousands of supporters on decades long campaign to ban live exports - Govt finally did the right thing &amp; Parliament passed ban last night. Congratulations everyone who helped make this momentous change 🐄🐑💪👏

R to @CarolineLucas: It's easy to feel horrified by the state of UK nature but we can turn this around, restore our habitats, create new wild spaces and get biodiversity thriving. This is a question of political will. Whoever forms the next Govt needs to step up &amp; act.

[2024-05-15 14:26 UTC]

R to @CarolineLucas: And @TheGreenParty believe we must also go further
- Introducing a new Rights of Nature Bill to put a thriving natural world at the heart of Govt decision making
- Working to change the mindset which places GDP growth above all else, including the wellbeing of people &amp; 🌍

[2024-05-15 14:26 UTC]

R to @CarolineLucas: So what does the Govt need to do now?
🌡️Speed up the transition to zero carbon &amp; ban new oil gas licenses
🌱Support farmers - double funding for nature friendly farming &amp; driving a shift to agroecology
🦋Effectively protect more sites for nature &amp; create new habitats

[2024-05-15 14:26 UTC]

R to @CarolineLucas: This isn't just a disaster for individual species - it's a disaster for us too. We’re becoming a lonelier species. And if you want to measure it in economic terms, a recent report found biodiversity loss could hit our economy more than either financial crash or Covid

[2024-05-15 14:26 UTC]

R to @CarolineLucas: Imagine if we squandered half our wealth, or land, or people. Yet seemingly, with few regrets, we have sacrificed half of our country's natural inheritance. Nature is in freefall and without urgent action now, we risk losing species from our skies, lands and waters forever.

[2024-05-15 14:26 UTC]

R to @CarolineLucas: The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries on earth. And the State of Nature report revealed that in my lifetime alone, the abundance of species has fallen on average by 20% - meaning that just half of animals, insects and plants now remain.

[2024-05-15 14:26 UTC]

Glad to secure this debate on biodiversity loss today, at a time when nature in the UK is under assault from every angle &amp; we are not on track to meet our targets. This Government – and the next one – must act fast to address this crisis. 🧵

[2024-05-15 14:26 UTC]

What a roaring success the privatisation of water has been. One of the richest countries in the world and we can't swim in our water or even drink it without getting sick? This can't go on. What will it take for this Government to act?
