Three reasons for YOU to join the fight for rent controls.
Join us on 18 April at the National Housing Demonstration to demand rent controls and council homes, not luxury flats.

@Livingstone_RJ @LondonLabour @ZackPolanski No, it's saying he supports austerity - the opposite of the Greens' position - at the same time Labour is literally cutting millions in grant funding to London local authorities. Quite some front!
English
@samfoster99 @LondonLabour @ZackPolanski It certainly isn't: it's pointing out that Polanski is a political chameleon, the Boris Johnson of progressive politics who sheds one set of principles and then espouses a new set equally passionately as he did his d pro-austerity ones. Surely you can see through that?

Tory–Lib Dem austerity pushed hundreds of thousands of children in London into poverty.
And you’re proud of that, @ZackPolanski?

Excellent statement by @samfoster99 on long-running regeneration/degeneration debacle at Aylesbury estate. But it’s not unique:
policy.bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/estate-regener…. There needs to be inquiry into harms caused by estate demolition @DemolitionsLdn @35percent_EAN @labour_council @stuhodkinson

Statement from Cllr @KeziaHarper and me after Southwark Council and Notting Hill Genesis have announced (finally) that they are parting company on the regeneration of the Aylesbury Estate. This is a much-needed step, it took too long to get here, and leaves many questions.

About time.
Southwark Council@lb_southwark
📣 Southwark Council and housing association Notting Hill Genesis have agreed in principle to change their longstanding partnership to regenerate the Aylesbury Estate Since 2014, the partnership has jointly delivered over 700 homes, including 581 new council homes, and excellent new community facilities like the Una Marson Library and Harold Moody Health Centre. There are a further 321 homes currently in construction. However, there have been concerns from Aylesbury Estate residents that progress with the regeneration has been too slow, and that delays have contributed to issues such as anti‑social behaviour around empty blocks awaiting demolition. The partnership has listened, considered ways of accelerating progress, and the council and Notting Hill Genesis have reached agreement in principle to change the way the two organisations work together. You can read the full statement - orlo.uk/7Sn1M

Wow.
The Green Party aren't just in second place on 21%.
They are FIVE points ahead of Labour.
The Gorton and Denton by-election is convincing Labour voters the Greens aren't a wasted vote.
And they're just 2 points behind Reform!
YouGov@YouGov
Our latest voting intention (1-2 March 2026) has the Greens on their highest figure ever recorded by YouGov, significantly ahead of Labour, who are on their lowest figure to date Reform UK: 23% (-1 from 22-23 Feb) Greens: 21% (+4) Conservatives: 16% (-2) Labour: 16% (-2) Lib Dems: 14% (=)

"When its opponents to its left were the official Communist Party or the extra-Labour Trotskyist left, they could be ignored. When it was internal, as per Militant, they could be excluded. And on occasions when a left wing challenge pushed through, such as George Galloway's trio of election victories, or when Jeremy Corbyn and the so-called Gaza Independents won their seats, it could be put down to local circumstances. Labour has serious difficulties facing a mass left wing challenger party because it's never had to."

Labour’s vote is collapsing everywhere.
In Peterborough last night, as in Gorton and Denton, voting Green is the only way to stop Reform.

Labour is briefing that they know they won't win the Gorton and Denton by election.
The Greens are favourites and are the only party that can stop Reform.
Lower bills, tax the rich, protect the NHS. We will win.

Starmer and Mcsweeney are joined at hip.
And Mcsweeney 'wouldn't breathe without consulting Mandelson'.
You can smell the rot a mile off - no wonder people are sick of Labour.

Mandelson was mentoring McSweeney

Hundreds of volunteers hitting the streets this morning in Gorton and Denton.
Lower bills, tax the super-rich - hope will win.
Only the Greens can stop Reform in this by-election.

Greens pick a local plumber and plasterer for a by-election in Manchester, Reform pick a TV academic from Kent. SW1 brains must be exploding 🤯

Everyday, more Labour MPs admit the truth, they’ve blown it.
It’s between the Greens and Reform.

Notice the difference in Labour’s strategic response to the left vs the right. Reform on the rise? Imitate them and flatter their voters. Greens on the rise? Discredit, smear and paint as extremists.
