It's the honour of a lifetime to be elected as an MEP for South East England. I want to make something very clear to those living in this part of the UK. 👇👇👇
I’m doing some research on poverty - if you have managed to get out of poverty I’d be interested in having a quick chat with you. Get in touch :) Thank you!
My favourite autumnal tree for attention!

Absolutely NONE of that is true.
No mention of housing and no mention of the poverty that your citizens are falling into.
And do you honestly think a picture of you on a private jet is reading the room?
Out of touch is an understatement.

@CarolineLucas has said she will not be standing in the next election. Her friend and colleague @alexforeurope shares why losing the UK’s only Green Party MP will leave a gaping green hole for many across the country

I’ve had the privilege of working closely for @CarolineLucas on & off over the past 16 years & lucky to count her as a friend
Here’s my take on the person behind the great politician many of us are continually inspired and in awe of
Me for @BigIssue 👇🏼

Done us more than proud
#Brighton Pavilion has been incredibly lucky to have @carolinelucas serving as their MP for the last 13 yrs (over 14 at the next election)
And personally, one of my career highlights is still that I worked on her 2010 & 2015 General Election campaigns💚
In 2010 #Brighton Pavilion made history by electing me UK’s 1st Green MP & it’s been the honour of my life. My open letter to residents & friends explains why I’m not standing at next General Election. With love & gratitude, I hope I've done you proud 👇

My response to the BS from the @DailyMailUK was to fundraise with @JustStop_Oil by offering to double all donations in a 48 hour period. The results are in, and we raised £340k. Big thanks to The Daily Mail - you were brilliant 😂

"Socialists that want to see Britain "forced back into the UK"

Judge issues decorum warning for Carroll v. Trump verdict:
"No shouting. No jumping up and down. No race for the door."
Huge thanks to everyone who has supported me over 14 yrs as a councillor in the city & @tomdruitt &
I over the last 8years in Regency ward. It has been the greatest privilege to have represented this vibrant neighbourhood, the beating heart of the city we love.
A thread 🧵
Chloe and Ricky are wonderful candidates who if elected later today will undoubtedly serve Regency very well. Wishing them the very best of luck 🤞🏻 🤞🏻 🤞🏻

Had a brilliant day at this event and honoured to have spoken too.
Not home yet, but was definitely worth the schlep to lovely Bradford On Avon and Bristol 🥰
Just been at the latest Green Britain Partnership event with @ecotricity, this one hosted by @triodosbank - fabulous people and range of organisations taking part, it was truly inspiring. Great to be interviewed by @HelenTaylor_eco too. 🎤
