We deserve better: Green Party launches local election fundraiser with message for Starmer and Farage
“Something big is happening. Across England and Wales people are finally saying: we deserve better”.
With those words, Zack Polanski launched the Green Party’s fundraiser for the local elections on 7 May, where the Green Party will take on the big money of Labour and Reform and look to build on recent record of winning across the country.
Hannah Spencer’s win in Gorton and Denton and Rob Yates defeat of Reform in Kent have shown that the Green Party can take on both Labour and Reform and win.
Zack’s message: now we need your help to urgently scale up for local elections in just over two weeks’ time.
Mandelson’s mates and Trump wannabees? We deserve better
As Zack said, from Manchester to Margate, people around the country are already saying ‘we deserve better’.
And if you needed any more evidence that we do, Labour and Reform have provided plenty this week.
The intrigue around Peter Mandelson’s vetting failure should not distract from this simple fact: Keir Starmer chose to appoint Mandelson as ambassador to the US despite knowing of his close relationship with notorious paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. This is a mess entirely of Starmer’s own making and exposes the rot that runs right through Labour.
Reform meanwhile are taking their cues from another former Epstein associate: Donald Trump.
Farage’s party this week announced their own ICE-inspired plans to rip up the rights of refugees in the UK – with the intention of copying Trump’s deportation policies that have torn communities in the US apart.
The Green Party is clear: we deserve better than Mandelson’s mates in Labour and Reform’s Trump tribute act.
People power vs billionaire backers
The Green Party is standing thousands of candidates at these elections. And as Zack said: “When the community come together, the Green Party can and do win.”
We can win big in May – but we’ll need your help.
Labour and Reform are both backed by billionaires and take money from oil and gas, private healthcare, gambling and arms companies.
As Zack pointed out, that means two things: 1) They work for them – not you. And 2) they have a lot of money.
We deserve better – and that’s where you come in.
The local elections on 7 May are just two weeks away and there is still all to play for – every extra pound you can spare will help us challenge Labour and take the fight to Reform.
Donate to the Green Party and on 7 May let’s show Starmer and Farage that we deserve better.
