Green Party Email
Dear John,

We hope you’re well in these difficult times.

Today should have been the day we were going to the polls to elect new Green Party councillors and assembly members across England.

The coronavirus crisis means the elections are postponed for a year but we are looking forward to 2021, when we are confident of building on the Green Party’s success last year - the party’s best election results in 46 years.

The Green Party has seats on 120 councils and these, and all other, councillors need to have their say in how their communities are being run at this challenging time.

That’s why today, we are calling on the Government to ensure that local democracy isn’t further disrupted by compelling local councils to meet virtually during this period - something many are avoiding in order to push through decisions without proper discussion and scrutiny.

Today, people should have had a democratic choice, but instead what they’re experiencing is decisions made under the radar, more power being put into the hands of a few people and the representatives they voted for being shut out of debate.

Social distancing can’t be an excuse for a lack of democracy. Sign our petition and join our call for proper scrutiny of local government during this crisis.

Best wishes and stay safe,

Jonathan Bartley
Co-leader, Green Party of England and Wales
