While #GenocideJoe was being fêted by bootlicking, complicit "journalists", Jill Stein was on the frontline against fascism, being assaulted and arrested by militarized police. Yes, this election is about democracy vs. #authoritarianism, and #fascist#JoeBidenmust be defeated!
This garbage that you're posting is extremely offensive, @mozz. A national abortion ban would subject hundreds of millions of women to potential medical atrocities. Trump is promising to round up approximately ten million Latinos and send them to concentration camps.
Ralph Nader, Mother Jones, and you are helping to make that happen.
Wise words from Carla Denyer of the UK Green Party, who questioned at what level the decision to actually engage British aircraft was made in last nights events in the Middle East:-
“I am deeply concerned about how this decision to deepen our involvement was made and in what further action the government proposes to involve UK armed forces. Britain’s military involvement must be scrutinised and debated by parliament. We should not allow ourselves to be dragged into a Middle East war.
Last night's violence demonstrates again that there must be resolution to the interconnected conflicts of the Middle East, including in Gaza where a ceasefire remains urgent. We are at a moment of grave peril and it is incumbent on all countries, including the UK, to find ways to reduce rather than contribute to conflict.”
Your yearly reminder that there are more than two political parties in the UK and despite the voting system being first-past-the-post, which favours the Reds and the Blues, you can + should vote for whoever you like. :face_sunglasses_fb:
I have always voted Green in the UK and if you like the sound of their policies, then you should consider it too. :tongue_wink_fb:
Here is a good #YouTube video which explains why the #GreenParty don't fair so well under a first-past-the-post system, which is highly related to the two points above:
Green Party candidate Jill Stein on C-SPAN Washington Journal this morning, who is largely responsible for putting Trump in the White House, denies being a spoiler. The overturn of Roe v Wade was the direct result of her candidacy. My question: is it your intention to get elected or to punish the Democratic Party? #cspanwj#politics#USpolitics#greenparty
#Bristol#GreenParty candidate has part of her finger bitten off by a dog while posting a leaflet through a letterbox. Ouch! The candidate seemed quite relaxed about it in reported comments, and I really hope the dog owners vote for her!
This is a very powerful graphic. Where there is choice it dispels doubt. It re-enforces Green policy and shows direction of travel. The Green Party should use it more for the local elections on May 2nd imho.

Good news. Green Party candidate for East Midlands Mayor has secured over £8k from donations to enable him to be on the ballot and in the candidate booklet.
If you want to donate to his campaign, check out the link below, but please boost anyway. His programme for change is inspirational.
I worked with Ashley for a few months, in 2022, on Anjali Apparurai's run at #BCNDP leadership (after Horgan jumped ship, lied about retirement & now works for coal mining industry).
Frank Adlington-Stringer is standing as the Green Party candidate for East Midlands Mayor.
Unlike the other candidates, he hasn't any big businesses donating to his campaign. He needs to raise a minimum of £5,000 to even get on the ballot paper.
Frank is North East Derbyshire's first-ever elected Green Councillor, and at the age of 26 is their youngest-ever elected representative.
