“Homegrown gas” as if we aren’t going to export it and sell it on the global market 🙄
NEW: Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh has confirmed homegrown gas production at Jackdaw will go ahead. In the middle of an energy crisis, homegrown gas has a role to play in our energy security as we transition to net zero.

Answered the call of the Americans* We need to elect a government who isn’t cucked to the whims of the states.
The Govt has seen sense and answered the call of the Industry First Group to drill in the North Sea. Opening up Jackdaw will protect British jobs, enhance energy security and boost tax revenue. The next logical step: approve Rosebank & cut carbon taxes on UK Industry. ⏳

Not sure why there’s Test Valley Borough Councillors on this list. Who are they calling on to disavow ZIR? All ZERO of our elected Greens on Test Valley Borough Council?
Over 500 Conservative councillors have signed our open letter calling on Green councillors to stand up for British Jewish residents. The Green Party has declared “Zionism to be racism”. Zack Polanski didn’t stay to vote against it. And yesterday, he told Laura Kuenssberg he wouldn’t overturn it: “I don’t think this is actually controversial.” We’re asking Green councillors to disavow the motion, challenge antisemitism and reassure Jewish residents they’ll be represented without prejudice. Silence is a choice.

Do you think there were Marxists in the 1930s complaining about Lenin not being communist enough?
Britain hasn't been led by anything remotely close to a conservative government for decades. Taxes up. Runways blocked. Fracking banned. It's Zack Polanski's Britain and we're just living in it.

Why don’t Laura and the BBC ask the PM why he was invoking the dual loyalty trope?
.@ZackPolanski has to explain that conflating Jews with the state of Israel (like the PM did last week) is antisemitic and is making British Jews less safe.

I do have to wonder, why the hell the establishment keep on invoking the dual loyalty trope? It’s disgusting.

This should be the Green’s line on ZiR. You don’t want to talk about the energy bills catastrophe coming down the tracks this winter. You don’t want to talk about rising rents. You want to stir up this culture war instead but we want to fight for an affordable country.
🚨 BREAKING: Abdul El-Sayed: You don't want to talk about gas prices. You don't want to talk about groceries... You want to stir up all this culture war stuff. Watters: Do you think men should be allowed to play women's sports? Abdul El-Sayed: I'm running for the US Senate. This is crazy. I'm here trying to take on the healthcare crisis and Big Pharma, and you're asking me about who gets to play which sport.

Us leaving really fucked us over in terms of opt-outs. We had a very special opt-out of both the Schengen area and the eurozone. The Schengen area is fine and we can deal with it, however I think joining the eurozone will be a VERY hard sell.
🚨🇪🇺 NEW: Various EU leaders say they would welcome Britain rejoining the EU Here’s what they said: 🇨🇿 Czechia’s Prime Minister Andrej Babiš: “Yes, of course, we need more money” 🇸🇮 Slovenia’s Prime Minister Janez Janša: “The UK leaving was one of the biggest catastrophes for the EU in the entire time of its existence” 🇨🇾 Cyprus’ President Nikos Christodoulides: “If Britain is ready to come back, we are ready to welcome them” 🇱🇻 Latvia’s Prime Minister: “I think Britain should come back to the family” 🇪🇸 Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez: “I applaud it, we are better united” 🇧🇬 Bulgaria’s Prime Minister Rumen Radev: “Of course, but this time UK must learn its lesson” 🇩🇰 Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen: “Of course, always” 🇱🇹 Lithuania’s President Gitanas Nausėda: “Yes, absolutely” 🇭🇷 Croatia’s Prime Minister Andrej Plenković: “Are they keen to come back?” 🇪🇺 EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas: “Of course, all our friends are welcome to join” 🇳🇱 Netherlands’ Prime Minister Rob Jetten: “In the end, it’s up to the British people to decide what that relationship looks like” [@SkyNews]

I don’t think the EU will be as lenient on us this time around. Joining the Schengen area would help deal with overcrowding at St Pancras and I’m all for it, but not even I would want us to lose the pound and our status as a sovereign currency issuer.

The first brandmauer in British politics being from a so called “centre left” party towards a left wing party???

Please, however imperfect you feel the motion was, or whether you outright rejected it, just move on. Talk about the climate, bills and rent, sell the Green party voters instead of using this time to undermine the leader.
"I'm not calling on Zack to step down, I'm calling on him to step up" Green MP Ellie Chowns backs leader Zack Polanski after the Equalities and Human Rights Commission said they were assessing "complaints alleging unlawful activity" over the party's 'Zionism is racism' motion.

The respect I have for LBC as an organisation has absolutely plummeted. And that’s saying something as it was already quite low after the firing of Sangita Myska.

The borey party
🚨 NEW: The Tories have called for the police to arrest anyone smoking cannabis "If an officer can smell cannabis in the air, I expect them to take action: find out who's smoking it, arrest them and prosecute them"

Next year we need to focus on getting economic policies passed at conference so we don’t appear to be a solely foreign policy based party.

We should be in the European Left Alliance / sit with the left grouping when we rejoin the EU. The European greens tend to be neoliberals anyway 🤷‍♂️
After speaking with contacts in the European Greens, I’ve been informed the Green Party of England and Wales may be removed as a member of the European Greens following the Zionism is Racist motion.
