This is a direct attack on local democracy. With devolution set to take years to implement we must let the people have their say on who should be working for them!

At the next general election the greens need to push a few things.

End austerity.
End neoliberalism.
Nationalisation, nationalisation, nationalisation.

It’s the only way to break this cycle

Austerity is a doom loop and the only way to stop needing spending cuts is to stop austerity.

Invest in us.
Invest in our future.
Invest in Britain.

Stop running the country into the ground just to please the 1%.

In my formative years, we had the global financial crash. This did not come out of nowhere, it was caused by deregulation from the conservatives and Labour didn’t try to prevent it by pushing change. In the past 40 years we’ve had mass privatisation and deregulation, this has harmed our country and has been the policy of all the other parties, but not the greens. The Green Party don’t want to see our Royal Mail sold off to a foreign billionaire, we don’t want to see our water companies owned by foreign investment firms and we don’t want foreign state railways to own OUR railways. We believe in Britain, we believe British public services should be owned by and in service of the British people. The neoliberal approach of selling assets to the highest bidder has broken Britain. The greens are the only party who want to try fix it.

Privatisation is a scam, in the general election I gave this opening speech at a hustings, it rings true especially today

First post here, I’m gonna be moaning about Royal Mail being sold off. It infuriates me that people on the right are constantly harking on about ‘British values’ but are silent when a British public institution is sold off to a foreign billionaire who you know won’t run it for the good of the uk
