Labour councillors took a selfie in the chamber last night, clearly they know their days in Norwich City Hall are numbered and they wanted something to remember it by
I have no idea what this could be referring to

Another day of Labour proving this article right
They hate their voters
They hate their members
They hate their own politicians
A party at war with its core constituencies
NEW: As Labour has blocked Andy Burnham from standing, it would give the Greens the best possible chance of winning the Gorton and Denton parliamentary by-election.
BREAKING: Zack Polanski will not stand as the Green Party candidate in the Gorton and Denton by-election.
A Green Party source told @NewStatesman that whoever is chosen as the partyβs candidate will be selected by the local party
Do people get it now? Fascism doesn't care about the rules, it cares about the ends justifying the means. It started with removing abortions and trans rights for "safety". "... we knew this is where it was headed, so we fought it (did you?). Now that same mindset is killing mothers and nurses, locking up children, minimising gender based violence and child abuse. To that I ask "are we safe yet?" Cards with βspotting fascismβ and βgreens against fascismβ on opposite sides. Available : https://greenpartycampaigns.uk/blog/greens-against-fascism

Breaking news: election of a trans councillor in Norwich on the 1st of May of 2024 is a platitude. Norwich city council has two trans green councillors is just a soundbite.
If we believe nothing about us without us we have to work to get our hands on the wheels of power
We have 4mps, multiple of whom have stood in parliament and spoken against transphobic policy. We are not in administration so we canβt actually change policy when the majority of MPs in parliament ate from transphobic parties.
As for what are the greens doing? Weβre getting trans people elected.
This is a statement from Avery Greatorex: After deep reflection, I have decided to resign my Labour Party membership, my Co-Chairpersonship of Pride in Labour and join the Green Party of England and Wales. For years I tried to convince myself that I could create change from within the party and that Labour could be forced to rediscover its soul. The truth, however, is undeniable: Labour has abandoned its purpose and its people. For too long I tried to rationalise staying in the party and telling myself that my fight mattered but I cannot fight for liberation in a party that treats trans lives as disposable. I refuse to give my name, my sleep, my energy and attention to a movement that has chosen cruelty over courage. This is not a party of the working class, but a cruel machine built on control and careerism. It speaks of equality and justice whilst actively legislating misery, selling the lives of people who need them most to a far-right movement that isnβt listening. Promoted by LGBTIQA+ Greens (Green Party), c/o PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ Trans Greens logo in the lower right corner.
The statement from Avery is continued: My departure is about being true to yourself. I wish Pride in Labour and the few still fighting inside the organisation the utmost strength and resilience because they arenβt the problem here. The rot in the Labour Party lies deeper than them, it is a party that has forgotten what Labour means. The Green Party offers something Labour no longer can: a politics grounded in liberation, solidarity and sincerity. The Green Party is a space where trans rights are not up for debate, where the fight for social justice and climate justice is rightfully seen as the same fight. I leave the Labour party with sadness but without regret because it is not us who left Labour, it is Labour that left us. This statement is by Avery Greatorex (she/her) who is Former Co-Chairperson for Pride in Labour; and now a Green Party of England and Wales Member. Promoted by LGBTIQA+ Greens (Green Party), c/o PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ Trans Greens logo in lower right corner.

Active transport is for everyone regardless of who you are. It angers us so much as green activists that promoting active travel should *only* earn you an award if you identify with your gender assigned at birth.
Trans women are women, and @cyclinguk.bsky.social needs to do better.
@conniefrankish.bsky.social is now on bluesky! You should go follow her sheβs amazing β¨
When the Government ape the language and the rhetoric of the right - such as Starmers island of strangers speech - there are real life consequences.
Huge solidarity with @mothinali.bsky.social and everyone facing racism.
www.bbc.com/news/article...
Racism has no place in our communities.
Solidarity @mothinali.bsky.social
Itβs all the same system; anti-trans street harassers & βrespectableβ eliminationists, islamophobic & xenophobic βpatriotsβ & the racist politicians who echo them in the halls of power. Those who try to divide us are not on the side of the 99% & the bile they spew produces this abuse as much as
hate marches & riots, & as it produced Brianna Gheyβs murder & the physical violent abuse of trans friends & comrades.
We say βan injury to one is an injury to allβ because we must stand up for eachother.
Utterly condemn this attack. None of us are free until all of us are.
Solidarity Mothin.
Its been a lot of work getting here but I am so proud of our party for creating such a safe space for queer activists β¨
With waiting lists measured in decades rather than weeks, @zackpolanski.bsky.social has our back. π
As I have often said. "Ow, my back."
Tice "green party leader Zack Polanski is a weirdo. Changed his name, claimed hypnosis could increase women's breast size, thinks me should compete in women's sport, thinks women can have a penis. Other than that he's fine. Vote Green. Get weirdo."
Greens growing. Reform ratttled.
PS - I changed my name back to my family's original Jewish name because I'm proud of being Jewish. If Tice think that makes me a weirdo, I think that makes him an antisemite.

This from the Times is shockingly irresponsible, false, misleading and dangerous. A shameful indictment of contemporary journalistic standard
