"Water Companies have a job to do and if they fail to do it, then we put them into Special Administration." Regular dumping of sewage is a failure. Ecoli in the drinking water is failure. Tourism industry damaged by polluted beaches is a failure.

Not only are the UK’s waters are home to a wealth of wildlife that is internationally important, they provide vital livelihoods to our coastal communities. Bottom Trawling wrecks those habitats. @GreenJennyJones co-authored.

Our seas are in crisis. Only 2 of 15 health targets are met — yet ministers reject protections. The government must ban destructive bottom-trawling now.

Approving a second runway at Gatwick in a climate emergency is madness.

The richest 1% take half the flights, yet Labour ignore the climate science and backs more aviation expansion.

Are Labour so anti-nature and pro-developer that they won't get builders to spend pennies to help swifts flourish.

Swifts are the long-distance athletes of the natural world – flying 5,500km only to find nowhere to nest here in Britain.
A tiny action could make all the difference. For swifts, it’s life or extinction.

Questioning Minister on 200+ peaceful protestors against what Israel is doing in Gaza, who were arrested under terrorism laws for alledgedly supporting Palestine Action. @greenjennyjones.bsky.social "Not appropriate for the Minister to stand here and say that it is none of his business."

More today on Lords Reform today and getting rid of hereditory peers @GreenJennyJones Greens have put a bill to have an elected chamber, with PR, every year since 2013. Current Labour Bill is too tame

A progressive government would end discrimination against disabled people who rent and allow them to make minor adaptations. "These are simple changes."
@greenjennyjones.bsky.social Hope Labour adopts these amendments. The welfare changes show what happens when they don't.

When I hear that businesses have stopped supplying arms to the Israeli military in Gaza, that makes me happy
@greenjennyjones.bsky.social If the government wants Palestine Action to disappear, then they should stop all arm sales to Israel. Proscription of PA is censorship

The Prime Minister has declared war on the blockers and zealots. The truth is that these are just local people who stand up and object when a river is being polluted by an intensive chicken farm; or woodland is threatened

Collective bargaining is a way of making the world of work fairer @greenjennyjones.bsky.social In a healthy economy there is absolutely no place for poverty. Our 1:10 pay ratio amendment will address inequality. Rich people will just buy less yachts.

Whether you are descended from huguenots, German jews, or Ugandan asians, or other families who had fled persecution @greenjennyjones.bsky.social refugees want to earn a living and make a contribution. It is the government who won't let them. The problem is not refugees it's government.

Labour's new rule. A refugee will be rejected for 'bad character' if they arrive by boat, or in back of a truck. But without safe routes, the ones with 'good character' can never get here. @greenjennyjones.bsky.social
