RT @getprdone: #JacindaArdern
As Jacinda Ardern the Prime Minister of New Zealand announces her plan to step down, its worth noting that as a leader who has led with integrity, that she came to power with the help of Proportional Representation

RT @peterwalker99: NEW, on low-traffic neighbourhoods: biggest-yet UK study (of 46 London LTNs) indicates they notably reduce motor vehicles within the zone without seemingly increasingly traffic on boundary roads. The latter has been a major objection by LTN critics.

RT @EmilyKerr36: This regressive proposal benefits the richest, who drive more and bigger cars. Instead, why not do something transformative like fund free buses across England (£2.5Bn) or dedicate all fuel duty (£25bn) to improving walking, cycling, & public transport?

RT @jennirsl: Please read; the most important piece I've written. Mass poisoning has suddenly killed off most sea life for 30 miles by the Tees. The govt claims it's natural; ind scientists warn it's manmade. The govt is desperate not to inquire too deeply as its freeport policy is at stake.

RT @clrandrewcooper: Keir Starmer saying
"Take back control"
is just a meaningless slogan if people don't have fair votes.
We need Proportional Representation.
Labour winning under an unfair electoral system is just as wrong as the Tories winning under it.

Memo to Starmer: our country's in crisis - climate crisis, health crisis, economic crisis. Ending sticking plaster politics is meaningless if he's blind to big ideas: wealth tax, public services in public hands, basic income, voting reform -which could truly transform our country

Starmer’s promise of new approach to politics & democracy, where power is given away, is welcome (& long-standing @TheGreenParty policy) but elephant in room is *still* his failure to support fairer voting system, without which power remains concentrated in handful of swing seats

RT @GreenJJNews: Today in the Lords @GreenJennyJones and @natalieben will back a fatal motion to stop Voter ID being part of the elections this May. This is voter suppression aimed at making it harder for some people to vote - mostly those who don't vote Conservative. @BBCr4today
