Under the leadership of Keir Starmer, The Labour Party is a changed party. It's time for The Green Party to take a stand on antisemitism too. I'm calling on Carla Denyer to take urgent action and withdraw support for the two candidates.

⛔️ 0% affordable housing on this scheme is proposed. 🚉 This is a site in a prime location, where nearly £95 million is being invested in Bristol Temple Meads opposite. 👎 Saying no affordable housing can be delivered on this site is a disgrace, developers need to do better.
