Slapped them that hard they have increased the lead on the Tories in the latest polls.
Don't mind the greens on a lot of issues actually.

The real Tories are finished. Hollowed out. Starmer's lot aren't just pushing at a door that's open, it's fallen off its hinges.

It isn't impressive that the former Labour Party lead them by 20 points or so.

The Greens are the only recipients of a vote right now until another part of the left are created.

We have a Greens party in Australia, which I presume will be similar to the UK version. But at the last election, we had what was referred to as "Teal independants" which are basically softcore liberal (tories), but with a social conscience. I think about a dozen of them got elected.

They are a good alternative to both the greens and the liberals.

  • The Green Party is a party of social and environmental justice, which supports a radical transformation of society for the benefit of all, and for the planet as a whole. We understand that the threats to economic, social and environmental wellbeing are part of the same problem, and recognise that solving one of these crises cannot be achieved without solving the others.

  • Every person, in this and future generations, should be entitled to basic material security as of right.

  • Our actions should take account of the well-being of other nations, other species, and future generations. We should not pursue our well-being to the detriment of theirs.

  • A healthy society is based on voluntary co-operation between empowered individuals in a democratic society, free from discrimination whether based on race, colour, gender, sexual orientation, religion, social origin or any other prejudice.

  • We emphasise democratic participation and accountability by ensuring that decisions are taken at the closest practical level to those affected by them.

  • We look for non-violent solutions to conflict situations, which take into account the interests of minorities and future generations in order to achieve lasting settlements.

  • The success of a society cannot be measured by narrow economic indicators, but should take account of factors affecting the quality of life for all people: personal freedom, social equity, health, happiness and human fulfilment.

  • Electoral politics is not the only way to achieve change in society, and we will use a variety of methods, including lifestyle changes, to help effect progress, providing those methods do not conflict with our other core principles.
Yes.
