Forty years ago, a small group of people decided to stop obeying oligarchy and empire and formed the #GreenParty; to build an opposition force to the capitalist class-based power and privilege.

I see the PM is being very rattled and very untruthful about the Greens again in the papers.
He couldn’t say this stuff in Parliament because he would be lying to the House - both about what our popular, evidence-based policies are, and about him believing this guff.

Following Eurovision’s decision to allow Israel’s participation, Spanish public broadcaster RTVE has withdrawn from the contest. The announcement split the screen between Israel’s performance and scenes of bombardment and starving children in Gaza. #Spain #eurovision #genocide

Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire.
Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines.
Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

This government has no courage to actually change things in a meaninful way.
As with the budget, the best it can do is tinker around the edges while the system gets worse.
