Polling Day is where elections are won. This Thursday, help us knock doors, deliver reminders and get Green voters to the ballot box. A few hours of your time could help elect Greater Manchester's first Green Mayor.

Greater Manchester has a proud tradition of international solidarity - from campaigning against apartheid to welcoming refugees fleeing conflict. That will continue with a Green Mayor. @geraldinecoggins.bsky.social will seek to twin Greater Manchester with the Palestinian city of Ramallah.

"People know that we show up for them... I think that's what we really saw in Hackney, with me winning with a 9,000 majority and getting 40 councillors elected." Zoë Garbett on why the Green vote is surging in Manchester ahead of the Greater Manchester Mayoral election on Thursday.

Andy Burnham seems to have lost his voice on Gaza. Time to speak up. End arms sales to Israel.

Last year, Louise Haigh said Israel's actions in Gaza were "nothing less than a genocide." Now she's in the Cabinet, will she stand by those words and help end the UK's complicity in it?

“People see the shiny towers and executive flats in the city centre, while rents rise and our towns are left behind. They know this is Labour’s record.” Geraldine Coggins calls out an economy that works for developers while communities across Greater Manchester are neglected.
