Keir Starmer is so worried about the Green Party that he's lying about our policies.

The Green Party has an evidence-based policy that recognises the war on drugs has failed.

We would legalise AND regulate drugs to reduce the harms to individuals and to society.
A graphic from Bradford District Green Party shows a cut-out newspaper quote from The Observer attributed to Keir Starmer, criticising the Green Party’s drugs policy. The phrase “no restrictions” is highlighted in red. On the right is a black-and-white photo of Keir Starmer with an exaggerated cartoon Pinocchio-style long nose. The background is green, with “Bradford District Green Party” at the top and “join.greenparty.org.uk” at the bottom beside the Green Party logo.

🚍 Greens across the #Bradford district are calling for better bus services.

🗣 #Ilkley campaigner @richardwilsoneu.bsky.social is demanding improvements to services in the Wharfe Valley 👇
Gaphic from Bradford District Green Party with a green overlay background showing a group of people standing outside. On the right is Richard Wilson (a smiling man wearing glasses and a jacket). The text reads: “Missed buses, inaccurate tracking and sudden cancellations cause real disruption for people across the Wharfe Valley. If your bus only comes every 40 or 45 minutes, you can’t afford for it to simply not turn up. People are left stranded and missing connections with other services. This isn’t just inconvenient, it’s preventing people from getting to work, to school and to appointments. It is clear the system is failing local people.” The quote is attributed to Ilkley Green Campaigner Richard Wilson. The Green Party logo appears in the bottom right corner

Is there anything more despicable than watching Labour and Reform compete over who can deport the most migrants?

The Green Party reject this toxic and divisive rhetoric and call for an immigration system grounded in humanity and compassion.

@greenmattbfd.bsky.social: “If the Mayor is serious about improving our bus network, she must take responsibility for fixing the problems that passengers are facing today. We cannot afford another year of declining passenger numbers, unreliable services and young people being unfairly overcharged.”
