Greens overtake Labour in sensational poll The Greens have polled higher than Labour in the latest poll by YouGov, which puts them only two points off Reform UK and five ahead of the governing party.

We told you we're here to replace Labour.

Good grief. Iโ€™m not sure sheโ€™s thought this through. Unless, of course, she actively *wants* allies & enemies to believe that she would happily order the British military to commit war crimes.

Extraordinary that in these fractious & divided times, so many of us can unite around the single, simple fact that Matthew Goodwin is an irredeemable twat.

National Action Days - Green Party Now is the time to get involved and get Greens elected. See below for action days across the country and sign up now to be part of a winning team.

When I ran for leader, I said we're going to make the Labour Government more worried about losing seats to the Green Party - than to Reform.

We're making this happen in Gorton & Denton. This is about our country.

Volunteer in the next 9 days!

Reform no longer the favourites to win next election Reform UK is no longer the bookmakersโ€™ favourites to win the most seats at the next general election, it has been revealed.

The more people find out about Reforms actual behaviour as MPs and in local government the more their support slips.

This bastion of moral virtue has opinions about the Green Party.

Just remember that as they continue to attack us.

This is who they are. Mask is off.

Questions about Mandelson, his heinous crimes and how much Starmer knew.

Dan Norris, elected as Lab MP, arrested - 2 counts of rape.

Tulip Siddiq sentenced to 4 years.

I wonder why Labour have made 3 attack videos about me in the last 24 hours?

They're done. Finished. Toast.

Let's talk about who funds Reform.

Let's talk about how disastrous Brexit has been.

Let's talk about why Gorton & Denton must vote Green & stop Reform.

Why so quiet, Nigel Farage?

Reform byelection candidate refuses to disown claim that people born in UK not necessarily British Matthew Goodwin, who is standing in Gorton and Denton, said UK-born people from minority ethnic backgrounds were not always British

Reform are now saying that Black and Asian and other ethnic minorities are not necessarily British, even if they were born here.

Think about that.

This is literally one of the first steps on the road that leads to fascism and concentration camps.

Birmingham appears to have abandoned most implementation of road traffic and environmental regulations. Private vehicles commonly driven at excessive speeds, clog bus lanes, routinely parked at bus stops, on corners, on lawns, on pavements, blocking pedestrians. Pedestrians have lost all to vehicles

US congresswoman threatens to 'sanction Britain' if Starmer bans X over deepfakes | LBC A US congresswoman has threatened to

X / Twitter should be banned over the whole #deepfakes issue anyway - but for a US congresswoman to threaten to sanction us if we do is all the more reason to do it.
The US bullying and threats need to be stood up to.
