I’ve reluctantly verified our account. I hate supporting illiberal figures like Elon Musk, but the X algorithm seems to work against human rights organisations & activists. Our engagement has dropped significantly & we can’t let our voice be silenced. #HumanRights #TwitterAlgorithm

No political party has won a majority of the public vote since 1931! Successive governments, Conservative & Labour, have won 55% to 63% of the seats - and 100% of the power - based on only 34% to 43% of the vote Not democratic! Time for PR! @MakeVotesMatter

"What principle could be more basic in a democracy than the principle that everybody's vote counts equally?" Today in Parliament, there was a debate about Britain's voting system. Here's just a few highlights. Thank you to @EllieChowns @LisaSmartMP @Euan4Falkirk @sarahjolney1 and the many other MPs who spoke out for change!

Andy Burnham says the Government 'must do more' on Palestine. Here's how he can start: End all arms sales to Israel. Ban all trade with illegal Israeli settlements. Sanction those responsible for the genocide. Palestinians need action - not just apologies.

Nigel Farage is correct about one thing. It’s the people vs the establishment. Reform are literally the establishment. And it’s the Greens on the side of the people. Wealth tax. Rent controls. Now. Join.greenparty.org.uk
