Francophile and European at heart. Labour Party member. Art / Opera / History. All my own views.










There is not a single MP in this country that I would ever wish harm on. I may disagree with them or find their politics abhorrent, but intimidation has no place in a democracy. What we are now seeing from this @TheGreenParty candidate turning up at an MP’s office in an intimidating manner towards her and her staff, is completely unacceptable. We have already seen where this road leads with the murders of Jo Cox and David Amess, two MPs with different politics but the same tragic outcome, and it should have been a line that is never crossed again. This behaviour fuels that same dangerous environment and it must stop, and the Green Party should act immediately and stand this individual down.






The judge has ruled that Ben Jamal and Chris Nineham are guilty on all charges. This is a disgraceful decision. We will follow up soon with a full statement. Our right to protest is precious, and is undermined by this decision, but the fight is not over.

You can't own an EV without a home charger. FULL STOP. Public charging is a rip off which negates the point of having one. Dealers need to be more transparent about this before they take your money.
