Dover and Deal Green Party

Perched upright on a weathered stump, a small brown Wren tilts its head back mid-call against a soft golden backdrop, alert and vocal.

Many MPs claim to care about nature.

Tomorrow afternoon will be the test.

On Tuesday 3rd March there will be a debate in Parliament on red lines for nature.

We’ll be watching to see who shows up. Empty seats will say a lot.

Tell us who you expect to see there tomorrow. 👇

There’s another free screening of the Minster Marshes on Sunday 22nd March in Deal.

Please book seats via eastkentclimateaction@gmail.com so they have some idea of numbers

Well done everyone who helped and thanks to @transitiondover for loan of the kit

I'm going to Gorton and Denton

A green campaign graphic headed “BRADFORD DISTRICT GREEN PARTY” with large text reading “GREEN PARTY GOING UP.” Two upward arrows show percentages “17%” and “24%.” Below, text reads “REFORM GOING DOWN” above a photo of Nigel Farage looking down. In the top right, Mothin Ali and Zack Polanski smile and raise their fists in celebration. Bottom text says “YouGov 15th–16th Feb 2026,” along with the link “join.greenparty.org.uk,” the Green Party logo, and small promoter text stating it was promoted by D Parkinson on behalf of Bradford District Green Party with a Shipley address.

📊 New polling from YouGov shows the Green Party going up and Reform going down.

📈 Let's keep narrowing that gap!

💚 Hope will win.

Lots of interesting questions from the public and DDC councillors at the meeting this evening from 6pm including a motion in support of the reopening of colliers gate at Betteshanger Park: moderngov.dover.gov.uk/documents/g5...

Meeting can be viewed online or in person at DDC offices in Whitfield.

Eighty-one years ago today the full horror of humanity's cruelty to others was revealed to the world. Cruelty on an unimaginable scale. Cruelty on an industrial scale. How could such cruelty arise? We can all be a bit cruel. A bit mean. A bit nasty. To people who are different. Who worship different gods, who look different, who speak different. But we try to snuff out that cruel streak with kindness, with decency, with respect. But some don't try. They take the easy path of being nasty, of being a bully, of being cruel. There's nothing to show at first sight who will be cruel, be nasty. It never says on their foreheads "Beware. Nasty person" The Canadian poet, Leonard Cohen, made that clear in his poem about one of the architects of the industrial cruelty we remember today. A person called Adolph Eichmann. Eichmann was just average, medium Eichmann ran away from justice, but justice caught up with him. Like all bullies, like all those who let the cruelty out, he was coward. He took the easy path. He let his cruelty out and then ran away. Being cruel, being nasty is the coward's way. What is hard, often the hardest thing anyone can do, is standing up to bullies, standing up to cruelty, to spite. And, sadly, there is too much nastiness, too much cruelty, too much spite in the world today. And we must all stand up against it because we need to reject the spite, the nastiness, the cruelty that ruined so many lives eighty-one years ago in case it overwhelms us again. Let's stand up for kindness, for decency, and for respect.

Mayor Mike's Holocaust Memorial Day Speech featured this poem by Leonard Cohen. To read Mike's full speech, take a look at the alt text for the poem.

Mayor Mike & Mayoress Christine met children from local schools at todays Holocaust Memorial Day service. The children had written poems and made artwork reflecting on their learning about the atrocities of the Holocaust and how we all have a duty to speak up to ensure they do not happen again.

Mike gave a very powerful speech which was appreciated by those in attendance including Jewish refugees who sought safety in the UK
