South West Green Party

Vote Green

So if you are thinking of voting Green, what do you get?

We believe in Europe — but not a European Superstate. We want a Europe where decisions are made by elected parliamentarians and not behind closed doors. We want transparency and accountability. A Europe that is culturally, ethnically and economically diverse, where rights are protected for one and all, and where discrimination, poverty and inequality are consigned to history. A social Europe that protects workers, public services and minorities.
