Congratulations to @canterburygreens.bsky.social for a really decisive council by-election win! Lots of pavements pounded, doors knocked, leaflets delivered - the hard yards of campaigning that gets across a message of hope and change 💚

Tune in for tonight’s Newsnight with Rachel Millward, Deputy Leader of the Green Party!

Good luck to everyone standing today wherever you are in the country - Vote Green! 💚

Momtaz Khanom, Green Party candidate for Cheriton, Sandgate, and Hythe East in the KCC elections, will prioritise better road safety for children, protecting libraries & leisure services, and connecting people across different generations in the community. Vote Green on 1st May! 💚

Local teacher Roy Smith, Green candidate for Hythe West, highlights the importance of protecting local youth services & challenging the way water companies have damaged our coastal & inland waterways and with that, threatening the economic interests of our coastal communities. Vote Green on 1 May! 💚

The Green Party is the fastest growing party on Kent councils. And nationally the only party to increase councillor numbers seven elections in a row. We’re working hard locally to add more, with an inspiring line-up of candidates & a great team of volunteers delivering leaflets & knocking on doors 💚

A vote for the future… experienced local politician and campaigner Jim Martin is standing in the Kent County Council election for Elham Valley: “Vote for someone you trust… you can trust my values and my track record… a vote for me and the Greens is a vote for the future.” 💚

Greens in power focus on social justice & climate action: our Green-led council has accelerated council house building, upgraded insulation in council homes & set up a £250k fund to support local community groups with their sustainability projects. Let’s get more Green voices & values on 1st May!

“We’re sawing off the branch we’re living on” Greta Thumberg’s “The Climate Book” is a great summary of climate science and the existential challenge we face.
