46 times stood and ignored. First Black woman MP after a racist incident of public interest. Shameful.
This has convinced me of the importance of my running for Parliament.
VOTE GREEN💚
Watch Diane Abbott try to get called on 46 times at PMQs
We need to deal with the root cause of the far right protests happening across the country.
Lack of accurate education on the last 500 years of British history.
Divisive racist rhetoric from political leaders/parties & 🥁
Relentlessly irresponsible racist media reporting.

Both the online and offline abuse suffered by Black women and especially at

Be advised I will not be silenced by racist rhetoric.
Hackney Green Party sends heartfelt respect and solidarity to Diane Abbott.
Nobody should have to face the abuse and threats she is subject to.
We thank for all you have done for the borough, it's residents and for making history in politics.
I've been researching the idea of Unconditional Basic Income since 2013. Here's a list of findings I've compiled from various UBI experiments, unconditional cash transfer studies, and cash dividend research.

*Hackney is a Labour safe seat so NO excuses here either💚
**Remember remember your voter ID 🪪💚
Our electoral system is warped - in only a small number of seats people can vote for what they actually want, without risking more poverty, wreckage, division, greed & war with the tories.
Bristol Central is one of those seats & the candidate

My great, great maternal grandfather was the Oba (king) of Lagos in 1861 and was forced -under threat of military bombardment - aka to avoid a massacre of the people - to cede Lagos over to the British.

This still makes me angry, sad, frustrated. To think of all that was destroyed and lost for the shameless, inhumane pursuit of greed.
I know my ancestors did their best to fight this & lost their lives. At the very least we should all remember.
#yorubaland
Great working with
@ZoeGarbett
on this.
It is going to be a long and arduous journey but rampant, unchecked gentrification has damaged too many lives.
We need to start acclimatising to the humane concept of a home being a right. Not a privilege & definitely not an investment.

100% this! Nigeria was a British colony and still negatively impacted by this &the atrocities, self hatred and erasure that was enforced upon us. Even the name Nigeria created by a white man’s girlfriend and the straight lines of a European ruler still define our land. TRAUMA🇳🇬
We cannot have a fairer, safer and more humane society if we keep voting for the two main party’s. Coalition governments are the way forward for
