Greens challenge “con artist” Farage to climate TV debate 23 April 2025 / 23 April 2025 by Green Party “Nigel Farage is a performer, a con artist. He will say or do anything.

Greens call on PM to “take tax cuts for billionaires” off the negotiating table 9 April 2025 by Green Party I’m calling on the Prime Minister to take this morally reprehensible suggestion off the negotiating table.

Trump’s tariffs: We must “oppose Trump’s divide-and-rule tactics” say Greens 3 April 2025 by Green Party "We need to work together to oppose Trump’s divide-and-rule tactics. In the first instance, that means standing with partners like the EU and Canada who share our commitment to trade agreements rather than trade coercion.

“A legacy offering real hope for Scotland” – Carla Denyer reflects on Patrick Harvie’s tenure as longest serving political leader in the UK 2 April 2025 / 2 April 2025 by Green Party "Patrick's legacy goes well beyond being the longest-serving political leader in the UK, or even being the leader who took Greens into government for the first time in the UK. His legacy will be marked every time a young person gets on public transport free of charge; with every renter who is able to keep a roof over their heads because of protections that Patrick secured; and with every kilowatt of clean renewable power that Scotland produces because of Green policies.

Spring statement targeting ill and disabled is “morally repugnant” 26 March 2025 / 26 March 2025 by Green Party “The Chancellor had a choice today. To rebalance our economy by asking the very wealthiest to contribute more, or to remove vital support from ill and disabled people. That she chose to take from the most vulnerable to balance her books is a damning reflection of how out of touch this government is.
