'Some of this is a manufactured row to distract from what's going on in Gaza.' After a government adviser warned London is a 'no-go zone' for Jews every weekend, Green Party deputy leader Zack Polanski says 'our minds' should be with the 'innocent people' of Gaza.

When we call for an immediate ceasefire, we are echoing the view of the vast majority of the British people. Today, alongside 400,000 people in London, we again made that call: Demanding the government calls for a ceasefire and ends arms sales to Israel, now.

It's official. This dying, dangerous, divisive Government has finally admitted defeat & named the date. Now’s our chance to kick them out! Labour on course for landslide - making it even more vital to elect Green MPs to hold them to account & ensure fair future for all #VoteGreen

🗳️The voter registration deadline for the UK #GeneralElection is 18 June. There are approximately 8 million people missing or incorrectly registered - who might miss out. That’s less than a month away. Make a start on getting the missing millions registered by telling everyone

As the Indian election reaches an ending check out this book by my UEA Politics & International Relations Department colleague Dr. Anuradha Sajjanhar. It's about how think-tanks and consultancies are used to legitimate political projects - so it's also very relevant to politics (and, perhaps, upcoming elections) in the UK.

Utterly disgusting to see the Green Party excluded from this. We are standing in every single seat in England and Wales. We have elected parliamentary representation, more than 800 councillors and look likely to win multiple MPs on July 4th. Invite the Greens now!

There’s a fundamental misconception in the #labourmanifesto that public spending comes after economic growth, public spending and investment is what drives growth! #generalelection #ge2024

There were 632,863 UK voter registration applications yesterday. Just short of 3 million since the election was called. A huge number but: 🔹Roughly inline with previous general elections 🔹Based on previous elections, roughly half could be duplicates. 🔹If there were 8

That Ben Gvir can admit, in fact boast about, running concentration camps and neither the US nor EU nor the UK will say anything, nor will ICC issue an arrest warrant for him tells you everything you need to know about our liberal international order.

Only UNRWA can deliver aid at the scale desperately needed in Gaza. That's why the UK is lifting the pause on UNRWA funding with immediate effect. Today I met Philippe Lazzarini to discuss this lifesaving decision and offer condolences for the 197 UNRWA staff who have been killed.

For decades successive US Governments have supported the Israeli government’s illegal occupation of Palestinian land, and Biden is complicit in the slaughter of innocent people in Gaza. Last night I was positive about President Biden's decision to stand aside as a candidate.

Funny how Suella Braverman called the almost 100% peaceful protest events for the people of #Gaza ‘hate marches’ but she seems to have absolutely nothing to say about violent English Nazi terrorism, some of which she legitimised. A complete disgrace to politics and her country.

Spare us the faux outrage Robert and the leadership contest “serious face” bull💩 And use this awful moment to reflect on your language and conduct and what impact it’s had on where the country finds itself.
