I'm honoured to be among such esteemed company. I have no idea when this happened but I think I can guess the type of post it was in response to based off that.

Here's me with Worthing Independent Councillors Carl Walker and Hilary Schan. I wonder if they need a bit of help with their campaigns against Labour in future. We certainly helped embarrass Labour then.

A strong economic foundation
Higher living standards for working families
An NHS with the time to care

Greens Organise
What Next?
When: Monday, 18 May 2026 at 7:00 PM
Where: Zoom (link available after RSVP)

Just 1 year since our inaugural ‘What Next?’ event, the Green Party has been transformed. Greens Organise members powered the election of a new ecosocialist party leadership team, our first northern MP, and our party has tripled in size.

Hot-off a massive wave of newly elected Green councillors, a new political reality for the UK is alive, buzzing and ready to be strategically organised. So, what next?

Join our event to hear from leaders from within our party and from across the left. Guest speakers:

Ferha Syed (Croydon Green Party Paper Candidate)
Abdullah Farooq (Democratic Socialists of America)
Jamie Driscoll (New Green Party Councillor in Newcastle)
Joe Todd (Life of the Party)
Beth Lewis (GO Steering Group)

Ed Poole@edpoole1975· May 15

One of these councillors perhaps?

Ed Poole@edpoole1975· May 13

Hackney's an example of what happens when the Greens "stand aside" for Independent socialists. In these wards the Greens ran on joint tickets with local socialists. The Greens were elected and the indies weren't. Surely this shows that the best electoral option for socialists is to join the Greens?

Troll: "And this. Is this the type of waster who works for the Greens?" over a screenshot of ed talking about his brother's alcohol related death and his own battle with alcohol.

These are the sorts of people trolling the Green Party.

"My brother died of alcoholism, so I decided to drink more. I'm in the Green party!" 🤣

Politicians get asked questions at public events all the time. They don't always have time to vet who they are talking to and he's not going to spend his time commenting in every bit of nonsense. He has actual work to do. But this was his response yesterday
