🚨Let's treat childcare like infrastructure.

In a new report written with the brilliant Mandu Reid, I am calling for Universal Free Childcare to be moved forward as serious policy.

This is a big vision and I hope others will come to share it.

Two ex-party leaders make major demand for universal free childcare
Green Party MP Siân Berry and Mandu Reid, former leader of the Women’s Equality Party, have joined forces to call for universal free childcare to help struggling parents

Just pathetically in Heathrow’s pocket, Govt backs the airport’s own climate-wrecking expansion plan, the one that requires moving (!) the M25.

Aviation bosses and frequent flyers causing everyone else’s daily lives tons of miserable disruption. Ridiculous!

Heathrow's plan for longer third runway chosen by government
Under the selected plan, the runway would be up to 3.5km long and require a new road tunnel under the airport.

🌱 Another whipped vote from Govt against climate,
clean air and nature. 😱
🚨 Lords must step up and make sure new Mayors have to take action.
💚 Thank you to every MP who backed the campaign!

How did yours vote?

Tonight I spoke on the need for climate, nature and air pollution duties in the Government’s Devolution Bill.

Peers are expected to follow the Nolan Principles. That includes the integrity to work free of owing favours to vested interests.

We might not elect them, but we absolutely deserve ethics and transparency from Peers when it comes to lobbying.

Massive support from councillors and council leaders (from all parties except Reform) for new Mayors to have clear climate and nature duties.

My crucial amendment to the Govt's Devolution Bill will be debated today - will your MP support it?
The UK Parliament will be debating the English Devolution Bill again today. Together with @uk100.org we coordinated a cross-party open letter calling for a climate and nature statutory duty to be included in the Billl.

A huge welcome @russell-moyle.co.uk to @greenparty.org.uk!

Lloyd has been a dedicated public servant as both a councillor and MP in Brighton, with values that run very Green. 

Exciting times ahead! @bhgreens.bsky.social 💚
"I always believed in working with people to achieve the best for our city..."

@russell-moyle.co.uk on the reason he decided to leave the Labour Party for the Green Party.

Next week’s budget must deliver justice for hard-pressed families by fully scrapping the cruel two-child benefit cap and fairly taxing wealth.

With @greenparty.org.uk colleagues I have written to the Chancellor with a very simple message: Cut bills. Tax billionaires.
It is a political choice to keep children in poverty whilst billionaire and multimillionaire wealth grows larger.

@greenparty.org.uk has today written to the Chancellor urging her to use the next week's Budget to tax wealth fairly, cut bills and deliver real change.

🚨One win already for clean air action from new Mayors! 

The Govt has adopted my first amendment to the Devolution Bill to make pollution part of their health plans.

Next up: a real duty to act on pollution, climate and nature. Write to your MP to sign my New Clause 29 today.

“It isn’t people seeking sanctuary who are tearing our country apart. It’s toxic, racist narratives and the scapegoating of migrants for crises they did not cause.”

Carla Denyer challenges the Home Secretary's new immigration reforms saying they just fuel far-right narratives.

Green MP Carla Denyer accuses Shabana Mahmood of trying to "out Reform Reform" and says "toxic racist narratives and the scapegoating of migrants" are to blame for "tearing our country apart" not migrants.

Mahmood: "I couldn't care less what any other political party has to say about these matters"

The govt's proposed new asylum laws are impractical, ineffectual, and outright cruel. Aping the rhetoric of Reform won't fix the real issues in this country; it will only stir up more false divisions and endanger already vulnerable communities.

As flooding in #Brighton becomes more frequent and dramatic, we need local measures to protect residents and livelihoods.

I stopped in to hear from business owners at Preston Circus, who suffered flash floods last month.

Will follow up with Southern Water and @brighton-hove.gov.uk.

Ella's Law, which would make breathing #cleanair a human right, will not likely have its second reading next week.

Yesterday I asked if the Government will make more time in Parliament for this vital Bill to be debated and made law.

The BBC needs defending - from outside forces like President Trump and his propaganda values, and from current and future political appointments to its Board within. I raised these huge risks to our national asset with the Culture Secretary this week:

With all Green MPs, I voted to keep the vital nature protections in Lords Amendment 130 to the Planning and Infrastructure Bill last night (now no.40 in our weird processes). The Govt is ignoring evidence and playing political games with our ecosystem. hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2025...

Outrageous that Live Facial Recognition is being used on local people in Crawley today.

I have warned ministers that police are acting unlawfully by deploying this intrusive technology with no approval from Parliament.

🦷 DIY dentistry should never be anyone’s only option.
Across the country people can’t get an NHS dentist. Children end up in hospital with tooth decay and adults live in pain. NHS dentistry needs urgent funding and reform.

It’s time for the Government to fix this gap for good.

The Government must give us more time in Parliament to progress #EllasLaw and make breathing clean air a human right.

Today I joined cross-party MPs, the brilliant

I have placed a tribute on behalf of Brighton Pavilion in Parliament’s remembrance garden. In memory of all those harmed in wars.

On remembrance day we must reaffirm our commitment to building lasting peace across the world.
