I’m sitting in Lion Café in #MileEnd, having a coffee and reading the papers. This place would normally be bustling with passing trade from the local bus stop, but the stop is closed due to the Thames Water works that are now expected to continue until the middle of August.

I’ve advised that there is a scheme for business disruption and I hope the owners can stay afloat while they apply and wait for a decision.

Another great day out in #MileEnd with our incredible #GreenParty volunteers. So many leaflets delivered and doors knocked. We really have the momentum.

Another day canvassing with all our enthusiastic volunteers in Mile End. I have a new level of respect for logistics!

🌿🏃‍♂️ Great morning at the Mile End Park Run with Jürgen, fellow Tower Hamlets Green local election candidate. Despite a late start caused by a tree being felled, it was a brilliant way to begin the day in such a supportive community atmosphere. Even if running isn’t for you, Park Run is always looking for volunteers to help with timing, marshalling and keeping everyone safe. 💚 #MileEndParkRun #TowerHamlets #GreenParty

I love the green and wild spaces in our neighbourhood. Mile End is one of the most densely populated wards in #TowerHamlets, and these spaces are, therefore, vital for our health and wellbeing. They need a lot of care and management, and I'm not afraid of getting stuck in.

This is from a brave collegue of mine.

All I can say is, I know exactly what she described. Not a one off!

My daughter and I were targeted at her school for being Zionists

It began with a bake sale to raise funds for Palestine, became a campaign of harassment and ended with transferring my child to another primary. I went through 18 months of hell
