It's not radical to think every vote should count.

It's not radical to think every constituency should matter.

It's not radical to think 34% of the vote is not a landslide.

It's not radical to want to vote for the party you truly support.

It's common sense. #PRnow

Green background political graphic featuring a large central portrait of Nigel Farage with a neutral expression. Surrounding him are four tilted screenshots of social media posts showing Farage shaking hands or posing with various Conservative politicians who have defected to Reform. Large white text at the bottom reads β€œNEVER TRUST A TORY.” Smaller text beneath explains that Farage previously wrote an article criticising the Conservatives, contrasting with the images of him welcoming or endorsing them. The Green Party logo appears in the lower-left corner, along with campaign promotion text at the bottom.

Farage is welcoming failed Tory politicians into Reform, with open arms. What happened to "Never trust a Tory", Nigel?

A good decision, which I fully endorse. I hope that other local Green Parties will do the same. I also encourage the national @greenparty.org.uk to stop using X too.

The fact is no presenter has ever had to leave the BBC for expressing conservative views, or even explicitly endorsing a right-wing party.

Tesla have approved a $1 trillion pay package for Elon Musk. That's 20 billion times more than a nurse in the UK earns.

Don't let anyone tell you immigrants or disabled people are the problem. It's the richest 1% hoarding all the wealth.
