AM Zack Polanski out campaigning with members of the Sutton Green Party.

Welcome to the London Green Bulletin!

This is the March edition of a London wide update that will provide members with useful and up-to-date information about campaigning, elections and ways you can get more involved in the London Green Party.

This edition will be covering:

• Call for London candidates: Can you help us give everyone in London the chance to vote Green?
• London Green Party backs trans rights: London Green Party passes motion to ensure party remains a welcoming and safe place for all people.
• Local Party Focus on Richmond: We travel to West London this month to hear about their local election campaign is coming along.
• Up for an Action Day? We have a calendar of all the upcoming local events and action days local to you!

This edition of London Green Bulletin has been compiled by London region Joint Election Co-ordinators Josh Williams and Malcolm Powell. You can contact us at [email protected] and malcolm.powell@outlook.com. 

There is still time to help by being a Green candidate this May.

Current estimates show we are now expecting to stand over 1,000 candidates across London (up from 865 in 2018).

With limited resources we need to focus campaigning activity on our identified target wards but it is also important for us to give everyone the chance to vote Green by having non-target candidates too.

If you interested in helping us boost candidates numbers and giving all Londoners the chance to vote Green, please contact Malcolm Powell at [email protected].!

London Green Party backs trans rights and a motion confirming this was passed at the most recent London Green Party members meeting.

You can access the text of the motion here

We are working to ensure that disciplinary, disputes and complaints matters can be resolved locally to help local parties focus on campaigning for Green change rather than internal matters. Could you help by being on this panel?

Any Green Party member in the London Region can serve on the panel, as long as they have been a member for at least two years and do not hold any elected or appointed post at the regional or national level.

Elected Committee members will be expected to familiarise themselves with national and regional procedures and documents relating to disciplinary matters and dispute resolution. Training will be provided where necessary and appropriate.

If you'd like to find out more, please contact David Farbey (email [email protected], mobile  07538 420 800), who is coordinating the establishment of the DCD panel.
