April's always busy as spring comes to life, but the community in Brighton has really excelled this year at bringing people together, and bringing me in to listen and see all this excellent work. Here’s a tiny selection of what we’ve all been up to recently: #Brighton 1/🧵

A transphobic protest group visited the Heath in my ward today. It doesn’t deserve my attention or amplification, but I want to record that it was not welcome and doesn’t reflect the loving and inclusive values of the people in Camden at all. #TransRightsAreHumanRights 💚🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Failure upon failure from Met leadership. There was literally no chance of this being a violent event if it had been left in peace. And given what prompted it, these scenes are just abhorrent and traumatic to see for so many of us. They will be held to account.

The scenes of disorder we witnessed by the far-right at the Cenotaph are a direct result of the Home Secretary’s words. The police's job has been made much harder. The Met have my full support to take action against anyone found spreading hate and breaking the law.

Rumbled. And now imagine the unlikelihood of one of our own major UK broadcast interviewers giving him this kind of cold scrutiny and think about what trouble our country is in.

An end to the rail class system is absolutely needed. We don’t have first class on the tube or Overground, we won’t have it on Crossrail, it would be unthinkable for buses. Transport for London doesn’t divide people, and the same is right for the rest of the transport network.

I am glad to see a wise decision made today by the party executive. And again apologise to members and allies that I was not able to ensure our actions matched our values at a much earlier stage in what I know has been a personally painful process for many of you. 🙏🏳️‍⚧️💚

Boris Johnson dares to say ‘integrity’ while showing what a poor leader he is. He disregards impossible choices made by a heartbroken and scared public, and makes it clear he applies different standards to his friends. The public interest is nowhere to be seen today in No.10.

If I'm elected Mayor, London will end the use of the weedkiller glyphosate within two years. We can't go on spraying this poison where children play, and where nature could thrive. My pledge on pesticides in @the_ecologist :

Why say this? I never jump to conclusions when seeing clips in isolation but there is no way of seeing the vast range and length of footage from Westminster and Hyde Park today and sensibly pretending the violent fascists were a ‘small minority’. Or indeed ‘demonstrators’.

This is not a symptom of a normally functioning climate. History won’t forgive if tomorrow’s UK news media once again treats a dramatic and dangerous heatwave like an ‘and finally’ village fete story.

This map shows exactly what I have been saying - both Greens and LibDems can gain MEP seats (us to build on the three we already hold). You don’t have to settle for second best or hold your nose while voting. Back who you believe in :) #VoteGreen2019

It has been obvious, and many of us were calling for circuit breakers a month ago. BUT it is absolutely unacceptable to hear this via rumour and private briefings to selected papers, not in a clear public announcement or through communication to elected leaders in local areas.

Can’t be put more simply: Greens would scrap Ofsted. Keeping single-word ratings? I can’t believe what I am reading this morning. I grew up with teachers and have governed a wonderful school and this is not serving better standards. My rating of this Government: Inadequate.
