RT @ShonaJemphrey: This week I have finally switched from @UKLabour to @TheGreenParty. This was a massive decision for me, as over the past five years I have volunteered huge swathes of my time to the Labour Party as a doorknocker, leafletter, campaigner, conference delegate, (1/11)

Ben Price, our parliamentary candidate for Norwich North.
Real options for a decent future.
Tories should be finished here: we don't want more of their toxic disorder.
RT @Transcendental1: I'm really honoured to be selected by @NorwichGreens to be Norwich North PPC.
We are in a #ClimateEmergency, & have a #CostOfLivingCrisis. I want to help deliver a Green New Deal that works for the people of #Norwich, and the environment.…

RT @Amelia_Womack: Pushing for all fossil fuels and not just coal to be phased down is a positive step.
But at #COP27 all countries should be using the term "phase out" and not "phase down".
This might be more palatable to some countries, but it doesn't meet the demands of the climate emergency.

Is the government deliberately cooking up a supposed black hole to authorise austerity and refuse pay rises?
RT @RichardJMurphy: In that case, providing for any change in inflation over the whole life is the correct accounting for this. But if that is the case the cost of interest would in this example be overstated by £51 billion. And that is the supposed black hole in the government's finances right now.

RT @strawthatbroke: @catherinerowett @peterjukes @Stueriley1946 It's deeper than that. As someone who lived many years abroad, I used to be proud of the honest, open, intelligent and trust-based society the UK represented. That's gone, we are now seen as a corrupt, small-minded, international joke.

@peterjukes @Stueriley1946 But it didn't take £500 off everyone. Some profited by shorting the £. Maybe still stand to profit as prices and interest rates rise. No it's always the poor that pay. And austerity will now destroy what was left of our world leading public services that once made Britain great.

RT @doug_parr: “I have been to eight COPs, and never seen any such blatant oil and gas promotion from a presidency before. There’s no legitimacy in a COP presidency giving a big platform to major polluters without asking them hard questions.”

RT @catherinerowett: Address the causes of mental health problems, instead of waiting till they happen. In particular, try a UBI to ensure that no one is too afraid to leave an abusive relationship or to get free of workplace bullying. UBI saves mental health costs, reduces sick leave, saves lives.

Same with delays in the transition from fossil fuels. Every day we go on increasing road traffic and air traffic emissions is a day we make more millions into homeless migrants crossing the Channel to get to a safer place. Walls don't help. We have to stop burning their land.

Diverting "foreign aid" money to things that aren't foreign aid (to fund research projects in UK universities to fund the refugee hostels in the UK) makes the problem of displacement of vulnerable people worse not better.

Spending foreign aid money imprisoning refugees in camps in England and stopping them from working in the UK? When you could spend it on helping to make their home country safe for them to stay where they grew up? #ForeignAid cuts have serious consequences 🙄

No need to spend more patrolling french beaches if you spend the money on giving refugees a safe way to seek asylum, in France or after a ferry crossing to England, ~which they're entitled to do, and we need to let them do.
If we don't offer a route they'll be dying in lorries.😢
