The people saying that mostly have private healthcare.
The Green plan taxes extreme wealth and puts billions back in. The NHS was built by a generation with far less than we have now. The only thing missing is the will.
The Green wealth tax only kicks in above ยฃ10 million in assets. That's not your boss. That's people who own entire postcodes and never have to work again.
They're not leaving. And if a handful do โ we'll cope.
Yes. We do. The Greens agree.
But ask why public services are overwhelmed. Why housing is unaffordable. Why wages are stagnant. Fix those things and the whole conversation changes.
Blaming the people arriving is easier than taxing the people who've been hoarding for decades.
Gorton and Denton just happened. The Greens beat Reform. Labour came third.
The wasted vote argument is how the big parties keep you voting against your own interests. It just stopped working.
There is. It's called taxing wealth instead of work.
Britain's 50 richest families hold more wealth than the bottom half of the population combined. That tree has barely been shaken. The Greens would shake it.
Or create them. Insulation, renewables, public transport โ these need workers.
The question is whether those jobs go to people here, or we keep sending money abroad for energy we could generate ourselves.
We can't afford not to. Floods, food prices, energy bills โ we're already paying for climate change.
The only question is whether we get anything back for it.
Paying shareholders while pumping sewage into our rivers and seas โ that's old thinking.
If you haven't watched Dirty Business on Channel 4, watch it. A little girl died after playing on a beach where a pipe had been discharging raw sewage. The water companies knew.
Water is not a commodity. It's not an investment opportunity. It's the thing we cannot live without.
The Greens would take it back.
People have taken drugs since the beginning of time. They're taking them right now. They'll take them long after this conversation is over.
The question has never been whether people take drugs. It's always been how safely.
Criminalising addiction doesn't stop it. It just makes it more dangerous, more chaotic, and more expensive for everyone.
The Greens want drug use treated as a health issue. Not a free-for-all. Just a safer way.
They just overturned a 13,000 majority in one of Labour's safest seats in a century. Reform came second. Labour came third.
They're not protesting anymore. They're arriving.
