@SkyNews @GarethBarlow Shouldn't we be looking at judges who make these decisions?

Speaking to Sky's @GarethBarlow, Jess Phillips reacts to the news that the sentences are to be reviewed in the case of three teenagers who avoided jail over the rape of two girls Full story: trib.al/UyBcnFU 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

@earthygirl011 @TheGreenParty Will the Green Party be dancing on street corners in Makerfield promoting their candidate like they did in Gorton/Denton? I doubt it 😂

Good luck to Sarah Wakefield, the new @TheGreenParty candidate for Makerfield 💚 Voters deserve a non pro war, pro austerity, pro genocide choice on the ballot Let's get ready to take on the lies & smears & let's another Green MP elected Vote Green 💚

@bradfordgreens 😂😂😂 and Labour?

"[Reform's] backward-looking and divisive politics needs to be challenged head-on with a message that the future can be better and fairer than the failed status quo. Don’t vote in anger, vote in hope.” Good luck to Sarah Wakefield in the Makerfield by-election! 💚

@MothinAli Where's Zack pushing for this one like he did in Gorton and Denton, he seems a bit silent?😂

I can't wait to get out and support Sarah during her campaign She's exactly what British politics needs more of, hardworking, dedicated and a track record to show she's already doing the work! Sarah will make a fantastic MP

@Andrew_F_Smith @TheGreenParty @Patinahat2 What's the point in having a candidate then ?😂

@TheGreenParty @Patinahat2 I’ve voted Green in the last three elections here in Gorton. But, please, please @TheGreenParty, don’t campaign too hard in Makerfield - if Burnham wins you could have a Labour Party that will back proportional representation AND do deals with the Greens.

Meet Sarah Wakefield. Manchester City councillor, mum of two, sustainable food campaigner - and your Green MP candidate for Makerfield.

@MattScottMusic @daisyeastlake Any party that doesn't have their own supporters telling them to vote for someone they don't like 😂

@bets8181 @daisyeastlake Name a serious party.

🟢 EXCL: Senior Green Party figures have urged Zack Polanski to consider stepping aside for Andy Burnham in the Makerfield by-election if the Greater Manchester mayor commits to introducing proportional representation Green councillors, activists and former party leaders have signed a joint statement warning that the party should approach the contest with “trepidation” The letter, whose signatories include Jonathan Bartley, who led the party between 2016 and 2018, and Rupert Read, a former Green councillor and author, says that Burnham’s election presents a “unique opportunity” to secure reform “In all reality this is not a seat Greens can win. It will be a straight fight between Labour and Reform. But it’s no ordinary by-election. Labour’s candidate, Andy Burnham, is looking to return to Westminster to lead in parliament.” “If Burnham will commit to backing proportional representation for the next general Labour election manifesto so that it is in place by the election after next, then on this unique occasion we don’t think Greens should run a full campaign against him,” the letter says Full read in @thetimes 👇 thetimes.com/article/16d6ba…

@WaistcoatDave @DarrenBar88 @getprdone

@bets8181 @DarrenBar88 @getprdone I'm confused on how you can say we're unpopular when we have outstanding local election results, have the best polling we've ever had & membership likely puts us as 2nd largest party in UK at least. You say what we did in the last GE... But the next GE is the 1st of the new age

When have Labour ever wanted to work with the Green Party? Never. And they will never work with us. And why would we want to work with them, quite frankly? Always stand a Green candidate.

@LeftieNeil @daisyeastlake Course they will. Greens aren't a serious party 😂

@daisyeastlake If the Greens enable Labour then they deserve to be treated the same as them.

@MattScottMusic @daisyeastlake Because Greens aren't a serious party 😂

@daisyeastlake Labour is no longer left wing, so why would Greens desert left wing voters?

@DWidnes @daisyeastlake We all know the Green Party have been taken over 😂

@daisyeastlake sorry who the fuck are these idiots to dictate party policy? Oh, that's quite right, absolute fucking nobodies.

@PlaidLles @daisyeastlake @TheGreenParty No this is just an example of not having the Muslim vote like you did in gorton and denton

@daisyeastlake I hope this isn't the case @TheGreenParty the Green party with the right candidate can win in Makerfield just as we did in Gorton when we were written off. People deserve a better choice than Reform or RedTories. #VoteGreen 💚

@daisyeastlake Name one senior Green Party figure that have 'urged' this 😂 You can't

@WillBarnish365 @daisyeastlake The green party are that unpopular their supporters would rather vote vote for what they call "right wing labour"😂 And this is what you will do in the next general election. And this is what a lot of you did in the last general election.

@daisyeastlake Completely agree. They cannot risk allowing another Reform MP to be elected. Doing so would be catastrophic and damn right dangerous for the country.

@helensclegel 😂😂😂 Labour are not bothered if greens step aside or not

If the Greens are to stand down in Makerfield, the least they should demand in return is that the Labour Party: End the block on coalitions with the Greens in local government. Stop publicly calling Green candidates antisemitic and respect the party's disciplinary system.

@lesthecroc Main rival 😂😂😂😂

Green Party still hasn't picked a candidate after sacking the last one for correctly identifying a false flag as a false flag, meanwhile their main rival is saying stuff like this and will still get elected. Absolute state of it.

@WaistcoatDave @DarrenBar88 @getprdone The green party are that unpopular their supporters would rather vote vote for what they call "right wing labour"😂 And this is what you will do in the next general election. And this is what a lot of you did in the last general election.

@DarrenBar88 @getprdone I very much understand using every opportunity to challenge Labour (& others). But part of me does wonder if the effectiveness of such challenges does play a role in perception moving forward. Wins (esp unexpected ones like G&D) are crucial.

@PaulMoxham5 @sp4rkl3jumpr0p3 Greens as the threat 😂😂

@sp4rkl3jumpr0p3 Agreed, although I wonder how much of this is being pushed by the right wing press, because they see the Greens as a threat to the cosy status quo that threatens their rich owners.

I say we, the wider membership, pen an open letter urging the party not to stand aside. Who would sign? We must make opposition to neoliberalism a core value of Green Party if we are to have any chance at wider success long term

@sp4rkl3jumpr0p3 😂😂😂😂 the green party are that unpopular their supporters would rather vote vote for what they call "right wing labour"😂

This is bigger than the by election also IMO We need to take a stand as members against bureaucracy in the green party, seniors in the party should not feel comfortable trying to push against campaigning

@MENnewsdesk The outcome of the 115 charges?

The day City fans knew was coming but never wanted to believe it manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-m…

@LBC Rapists and peadophiles are avoiding jail while social media posts gets you years inside. Today's Britain.

"You can't just lock up a 13-year-old forever?" "Yes you can!" Three teenaged rapists have been spared jail. Unsatisfied with the decision, caller Robert outlines his alternative prison system, focused on justice rather than rehabilitation.
