    Very excited that I’ve booked tickets to for the reopening jam this Wednesday, AND for the 80sv90s night on the 4th. Really looking forward to being back on the rinks! Very glad they’re both still there! Missed them!

    A UK passport is £75-85. A UK provisional license is £43. As a UC claimant I don't have that kind of money lying around. I'd also never vote Tory. Tell me this isn't voter suppression.

    In 2019 there was ONE conviction for attempted voter fraud ONE Make no mistake This is about our Government suppressing votes “about a quarter of voters – often younger voters – do not have either a passport or driving licence”

    Greens have won because the greens have great policies and candidates. This isn’t just cause of Labour being bad. I’m tired of every Green win being put down to the faults of Labour not Green merit.

    The lesson of Bristol is that Labour have to work to retain progressive and leftwing voters. Turning around to say "you and your values are an embarrassment" will, at some point, be taken personally.

    I don’t want to catch anybody saying that voting for is wasted vote or that voters should hold their nose and vote Labour. Bristol has voted Green and sent a clear message that it is fed up with the system as it is. If you want Green, join us and vote Green.

    It’s amazing how narrow you can make a vehicle lane when councils need to squeeze in a 🚗 parking bay, but try and ask them to narrow a vehicle lane to accommodate a 🚲 lane and you get laughed out of the road planners door.

    Great interview by on setting out why Greens can take seats from Tories and Labour, and the commitment we bring to universal basic income, green jobs, warmer homes - we are not a one-issue party but a party with a vision.

    "We are much more than a single-issue party." co-leader says they've taken more votes from the Conservatives than Labour today and the two-party system is behind the Tories' gains, not their vision

    Conservatives "gaining" only where there was once UKIP or Brexit party there on their right flank. In fact the right vote as a whole is in decline, and are in the ascendant.
