The byelection here in Holborn and St Pancras is Labour’s to lose. But lose it might | Polly Toynbee
By Polly Toynbee

Review of the book Green Party Taiwan: The First Thirty Years (綠黨在台灣：第一個三十年)

"...the book shows the dynamics of third-party politics in Taiwan among a progressive third party, as well as how the Green Party has sought to carve out a place for itself amidst the many political changes–inclusive of democratization–that Taiwan has seen in past decades, which have created but also foreclosed political openings for third parties."

Just catching up with last night's #AnyQuestions. Very cheering to hear #HannahSpencerMP so able and clear

Glad to have 5 effective Green MPs, not least Adrian Ramsay - who led this important discussion in the house just 2 days ago. (Global biodiversity and ecosystems as an issue of National Security - requesting #UKGovt to publish recent report from the security services themselves...) #UKPolitics #climateandnatureEmergency
Another would be marvellous, but let's not forget the hardworking team in there already! #GreenParty

And yes, I do little things that bring joy. I spent Saturday afternoon doing crafts with my sister; such deep happiness from that (communal crafting- the best!). Monday we did a “Maize Maze” in a local farm which was beautiful. All this continues to be good. I also do try taking action of course (through work, #GreenParty, etc). It’s just that the underlying bigger picture feels so incredibly bleak,it’s hard to stay cheery.

Fascinating afternoon in #UKParliament:
In case there's no media coverage,
jump to 15:10 for start of a debate led by #AdrianRamsay of the #GreenParty on hidden report, from our SECURITY services, on the dangers of global #biodiversityloss https://parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/d01b4723-b547-472e-a5ca-71809e83bf11

Zack Polanski is running for Starmer's seat!

I so hope he wins. It's a lil' risky but he had to go for it.
