"At the heart of everything we do, we put planet and communities as our foundation." 🌎👨‍👩‍👧‍👧 🗣 Green Party candidate in the Makerfield by-election, Sarah Wakefield. With policies for people and planet, the Green Party are ready to fix our country. ✅️ #VoteGreen @wigangreens.bsky.social

Your Green Party councillors are here to help 🤝💚 📧 Here's how to get in touch with them! *Bradford Greens website update coming soon!

"When we saw the success of the Green Party in the local elections in the UK, that gave us hope too." Green Left member of the Spanish Government, Ernest Urtasun, on @zackpolanski.bsky.social's @boldpolitics.bsky.social podcast. We are spreading hope far beyond our borders! Join.greenparty.org.uk

🗨 "If we lock those borders down what are those parties going to do then for you and your family?" Green Party candidate in the Makerfield by-election, Sarah Wakefield 👌 Immigration isn't the cause of people's problems. Stopping it won't improve people’s lives. What then???

"With Donald Trump...we need to say no. Appeasement...doesn't work." Green Left member of the Spanish Government, Ernest Urtasun, on @zackpolanski.bsky.social's @boldpolitics.bsky.social podcast. Keir Starmer needs to take note.

❗️At long last the leader of Bradford Council, Reform's Stephen Place, responds to questions about his offensive social media posts. ➡️ Apparantly posting racist, sexist and islamophobic posts, as recently as last year, doesn't make him 'a lesser person'. We disagree. Watch ⤵️

🤣 🤣🤣 When the attacks on @zackpolanski.bsky.social are so ridiculous, the only thing you can do is laugh 🤣🤣🤣 Oh, and join the Green Party: Join.greenparty.org.uk 😃 💚

➡️ What words do the public use to describe Nigel Farage? 👀 Watch to find out. ❓️ What word you would use to describe him? Let us know in the comments 👇

💬 "If you compare the scrutiny I receive compared to what Reform receives, it's incredibly disproportionate" 📰 Media on Farage £5 million: '........🤫' 📰 Media when @zackpolanski.bsky.social fails to close the door behind him: '🤬🤬🤬'

🫁 Bradford's Clean Air Zone is bringing millions of pounds of health benefits to #Bradford. ➡️ But Reform want to scrap it. 💨 Reform: the party of air pollution.

🚨 Reform want to scrap local 'net zero' schemes. Kirklees Green councillor Andrew Cooper is right: these projects are essential for people and planet. Bradford's Green councillors will do everything in their power to stop Reform slashing environmental projects in our district.

There's no alliance, 'grubby' or otherwise, between parties in Bradford. But what is grubby, is Reform leader, Stephen Place's sexist social media posts. When will he apologise?

Starmer mocks Greens for thinking @zackpolanski.bsky.social walks on water 🌊 Meanwhile his premiership is drowning under broken promises, internal divisions and a failure to make change 🥀 📉 It's time to let Labour sink without a trace: Join.greenparty.org.uk

🟥 Meet the new leader of Bradford Council, Reform's Stephen Place. ⚠️ Warning: video contains racist, sexist and islamophobic posts from Cllr Place's social media. ➡️ This is the face of Reform's hate and division.

💬 "The attacks on @zackpolanski.bsky.social in the press have been bananas." 🎙 Coco Khan from the Pod Save the UK podcast with Nish Kumar. 🟢 Help us stand up to wealth and power in this country: Join.greenparty.org.uk

Leader of Reform on Bradford Council has 'empathy' for now ex-Reform councillor Daniel Devaney who called Muslims 'pure scum'. Where is his empathy for Muslims in Bradford who were the target of Devaney's racist rants? Reform siding with the racist, not the victims of racism.

➡️ As Reform look to run Bradford Council, let's have a look at their record in local government shall we? From racism, to resignations, to rows and infighting - Reform have shown that where they run councils, they soon descend in to chaos. Is this what #Bradford can expect?

🐗 Thanks for visiting Bradford, Hannah! 💚 Come back soon 😊
