I had become rather disenchanted with the political system, with the other three main parties unable to offer anything to make real change. Then I heard Jonathan Bartley, then co-leader of the Green Party, speak at the Greenbelt Festival in 2018. Here was something that made sense. After that I joined the Green Party and became an active member.
I am standing as a candidate because I believe that time is running out. We can no longer fiddle while Rome burns. It is time to offer voters a real choice, for a fairer, greener country.
