Sian Berry MP

Image is a stack of copies of the Bill on a dark wood table. The front page reads: A BILL TO Establish the right to breathe clean air; to require the Secretary of State toachieve and maintain clean air in England; to make provision about environmental targets and minimum standards in relation to clean air; to make provision about the powers, duties and functions of public bodies in England in relation to air pollution; to give the Office for Environmental Protection additional powers and duties related to clean air; to require the Secretary of State to comply with the United Nations Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution; to require the Secretary of State and public authorities to apply specified environmental principles in carrying out their duties under this Act; and for connected purposes.

I am so proud to have introduced this Bill to Parliament last year with cross-party support.

I am determined to see Ella’s Law voted on and passed through Parliament, and I strongly urge the Govt to adopt it in the upcoming King’s Speech.

Whatever it takes, this vital Bill must become law.

Image shows Rosamund Adoo-Kiss-Debrah sat next to Sian with a copy of Ella's Law on the table in front of them. They are both reading the Bill that is named in memory of Rosamund's daughter Ella who died aged nine due to exposure to air pollution.

Ella’s Law has been published 👏

No child should have the growth of their lungs stunted because of dirty air where they live and play, yet this is the reality of air pollution in England. Ella’s Law would change this.

My thanks to Rosamund and all the hard-working campaigners demanding change.

If you are visiting glorious Brighton on this sunny day (as you definitely should), please be aware that at Churchill Square this van is live scanning everyone’s faces and making the city look more like a police state than the gorgeous day out it is!

2nd poll within the week puts Greens in second place, well ahead of both Labour and Tories (the first was YouGov's weekly poll that had Greens on 21% with Tories/Lab on 16% and Reform on 23%).

Reform fury as someone else wins by Our By-election Editor Tim Shipsink The losing candidate in the Gorton and Denton by-election, Matt Goodwhinge, has demanded an immediate re-run of the election on the grounds that he lost comprehensively to someone else. "It's totally unfair and rigged," said Goodwhinge. "I shouldn't be required to sit there and suck it up, just because I lost." Mr Goodwhine continued, *I can't believe that all those voters I demonised failed to back me. Especially after I was endorsed by Tommy Robinson and ten million Russian bots on X. "We have clear evidence of family voting, where people voted in order for me to stop deporting their families." Mr Badloser concluded. "I'm the victim of colour prejudice. They didn't vote for me simply because I'm not green." Reform leader Mr Farage, speaking from a sun lounger on a rock near the Chagos Islands said, "It's a tragedy that the people of Manchester won't see Matt in Westminster, but my constituents don't see me in Clacton either."

Beautiful from Private Eye on the massive toddler-tantrum that Matt Goodwin and Reform are having, because they got whooped in Gorton and Denton.

Why Labour is so scared of the Green Party | The News Agents New polling shows the Green Party closing on Reform’s lead in popularity with UK voters, despite growing right-wing attacks on the party and its surging numbers. Is Labour struggling to respond to a n...

“When it was Reform winning, he treated those voters with respect”

Excellent points here about why Greens are surging and why the Labour leadership and the Conservatives are losing the plot. www.thenewsagents.co.uk/article/why-...

The Chancellor had a lot to say to me about Greens today, but still could not admit that Labour is leaving over 200,000 children to suffer by keeping the overall benefit cap in place.

The govt must do more than express concern over the expansion of illegal Israeli settlements and settler violence in the West Bank - they must take action.

Ban trade with illegal settlements and impose new sanctions on Netanyahu and all responsible for this violence.

Plumber, Plasterer, Parliamentarian! 💚

Quick photocall then watching HANNAH OUR NEW GREEN MP getting sworn in - and my heart may burst. Thank you everyone who made this day happen! 💚💚👏👏🙏

Labour must stop channelling Reform and unite with progressives. That’s the lesson from Gorton and Denton | Sadiq Khan The threat to the party in some parts of our country is now existential. But we can progress, as we have in London, by being bold and strong in our core beliefs, says London mayor Sadiq Khan

"Trying to compete with Reform not only feels inauthentic... but a betrayal of what Labour is supposed to represent. We must address the concerns and fears of voters, not play on them."

Damning stuff from Sadiq Khan

People power led the Greens to victory in Gorton and Denton The party’s historic byelection win was earned by listening to voters, not ignoring them, as Labour has done

“we produced videos in Urdu, because we believe that voters should be spoken to, not spoken about. Reaching out to communities in the languages they use at home is not division; it is democracy.”

What the Greens told the annual budget council meeting Green councillor Ollie Sykes gave his party’s response of the proposed 2026-27 budget for Brighton and Hove City Council at Hove Town Hall this afternoon (Thursday 26 February). He said … One thing is clear from this proposed budget. This council and our residents are paying – in job losses, decimated services and in hard […]

What the Greens told the annual budget council meeting

NEW: Sources in the Greens have said they have spoken to 55% of voters as of 5.30pm.

With less than 4 hours to go until polls close, they'll need to speak to another 45%.

This will be a close election, and with a few hundred votes to tip the balance and see the Greens win.

Brilliant to be out knocking on doors in Gorton and Denton with a lovely group of volunteers; we have 75 more groups like this getting out the vote all across the constituency!

Just spoke to one voter whose daughter has made her own beautiful poster to show her support💚

Honestly thought for a second I had forgotten to put in the word ‘if’ in all my excitement at Hannah’s amazing chance to make history.

With all my heart I want to have Hannah with me in Parliament next week. She is not only the best candidate to beat Reform but just simply the best new MP you could wish for.

If you are voting today, choose Hannah, and tell everyone you meet to do the same! 💚💚💚🙏
