Message from Uxbridge is about the power of fossil fuel and car lobbies
Not that people don’t care about children dying from dirty air
@Thegreenparty was only party to increase vote share in all three by-elections

My heart sank at thought of two right-wingers debating green policy but @IanDuncanHMG and @topnigel made a lot of sense:
🧐 We must not weaponise and lose existing cross-party consensus
🏭 Business supports green transition
🤗 But it must be just - with nobody left behind

A useful summary of the life of the man who led the rise of far right in the UK
His history of racism, support for Putin and crookery is not news
What is extraordinary is how BBC assisted his rise and still offer him so much airtime
And how few journalists have challenged him

Whole point of a two-party system is polarization and mutual antipathy
As by-election results showed, most likely response of disillusioned Tory voter is to stay at home
Absurd for tactical voting advocates to ignore this
Many voters may vote Green but never Labour - or Tory

.@TheGreenParty got our best ever by-election result last night
Our vote held up because people aren't just voting 'not Tory'
They're choosing a party they know will take action on the climate and ecological emergencies we're facing

In Westminster elections hysterical tactical voting messages squeeze Green vote to the bone
But you can't tell how people how to vote and many people would never vote Labour or Lib Dem
The point about democracy is choosing a policy platform not being told who to vote against

Allan Andrews: @GreenPartyMolly @CarolineLucas Yeah and you got enough votes at Uxbridge to allow the Tory to get elected. A few hundred votes to the greens rather than labour cost labour the seat. GTTO is what matters not a few hundred votes for the Green Party.

Re @JR_Marketeer I think you are missing the point to be honest. The point is that people choose parties whose policies they support. That's the point of democracy. Not for some parties to tell people how to vote and who not to vote for

More absurd posturing from a government of talentless amateurs
Why don’t you try taking urgent action on the climate crisis - which is actually your job?

Rt Hon Grant Shapps MP: I’ve written to @Keir_Starmer to request he pays for the criminal damage the Just Stop Oil attacks on the Energy Security Department caused this morning

😖 Yesterday the PM spoke up for Farage’s personal financial difficulties
*Legislation is suggested!*
😤 Shapps wrote a farcical letter to Starmer about Just Stop Oil costs
🤡 These jokers are overseeing our national decline and dangerous inaction on the

Islas Malvinas: EU signs deal using Falklands’ Argentine name
Just one more indication that Brexit has left us with diminished diplomatic power

Crown estate triples pay of CEO in 3 years to nearly £1.6m
A disgrace when so many are struggling with the cost of living crisis
We need to end this medieval anachronism and manage our natural resources for the public good and to achieve sustainability

Everything is broken and the world is frying and yet the prime minister finds time to comment on this!

How can this be reduced to a human interest story?!
Journalists should be asking how we can get fossil fuels out of our economy as quickly as possible

Europe’s frying and there is precious little climate action
But decide they’ll dedicate time to Farage’s bellyaching about his problem with his personal bank account
You literally couldn’t make this up
Climate displacement activity writ large
