Today I asked ministers to deny* that the number of jury acquittals in protest cases was a factor in the Government’s dangerous attack on jury trials. *They did not do this

Today I asked the Government why it is creating an authoritarian toolkit 👇

Ella's Law, which would make breathing #cleanair a human right, will not likely have its second reading next week. Yesterday I asked if the Government will make more time in Parliament for this vital Bill to be debated and made law.
This week I’ve been challenging the Govt’s sinister attempts to abolish the right to choose a jury trial. Here is the Minister confirming that the right to elect a jury trial IS being completely abolished with this Bill! A fundamental cornerstone of our justice system established in 1670: gone.
We need a UK Digital Sovereignty Strategy! Our over-reliance on foreign tech giants is a huge risk to our security and resilience when faced with Donald Trump’s ever increasing belligerence. Companies like Palantir have no place in our critical digital infrastructure.
I have put down an amendment to this narrow Bill, that would require the Government to show how many families are blocked from receiving the support they would otherwise be entitled to if the overall cap did not exist. Will the Government act? 👇 publications.parliament.uk/pa/bills/cbi...
It’s the 40th year of the incredible Children’s Parade that kicks off our Festival. If you’re for boundless creativity from thousands of children, #Brighton is for you!
Some snippets from my speech in Parliament on Pride Month. If the current environment for LGBTQ+ people teaches us one thing, it is that progress if precious and rights for any of us can, if not defended fully, be rolled back. It is our job in this place to prevent this.
Keir Starmer told us he would be the Prime Minister who restored trust in politics, not the one to leave ministerial ethics in tatters. No more buck passing and scapegoating, If the Prime Minister has any integrity at all, he must go.
Greens welcome #GreatBritishRailways but what about rolling stock? ROSCOs paid £275m in dividends to shareholders last year - a huge drain on public finances! I urge the Government to find ways to bring our rolling stock into public hands.
Digital ID, restriction of jury trials, expansion of live facial recognition, extreme crackdowns on asylum seekers. Labour is building a toolkit for tyrants and gifting future governments the means to run an authoritarian state. Greens will continue to stand up against these sinister proposals.
Scrapping the two child limit is not enough. The overall benefit cap must go too. The Government's own assessment shows at least 200,000 children in poverty will not be helped if only the two-child limit is removed. This cruel legacy of austerity must finally end.
Many of you say that #ForeverCanadian awoke Albertans. It gave us a voice and purpose. I agree. Definitely, we are now a community and a movement that’s about to grow. Let’s take a look back at 2025 and at how it all happened. Happy New Year, Canada!🇨🇦 #ableg #cdnpoli

Open competition for power in our politics has its downside. We need some countervailing institutions to slow the rise of psychopaths to the top and to focus democracy on what kind of future we want rather than on which memes can be got to fly.
With everything going on in the world, our minds need a break now more than ever. Do something brainless today, and I hope you have a relaxing weekend. ❤️
