Cllr Rosie Pearson Steers Motion to support CEE Bill through Council
(Despite Conservatives apparently directed by local MP to vote against the motion.)

On the 11th October Green Councillor Rosie Pearson Proposed a Motion to support the Climate and Ecology Bill (formerly known as the CEE BIll) as it passes through Parliament.

Rosie made an impassioned appeal to all the councillors to suport the motion to support the CEE Bill which commits the Government to develop and implement a strategy to halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity by 2030 and to take full responsibility for its carbon and ecological footprint including along both the domestic and international supply chains.

May Elections Candidate Spotlight

BARRY WHEATLEY, WEST OXON GREEN PART CHAIR

In last year's elections Barry Wheatley stood for the Green Party in the Kingham, Rollright & Enstone ward in the election of West Oxfordshire District Councillors on May 4th 2023. 

 

Barry came second, and it established the Green party as the main opposition party in the Ward. In the coming local elections, in 2024, local resident Arron Baker has been selected as the candidate for the ward.

Barry said " I am really pleased that such a stong candidate has stepped forward.  I know Arron will make an excellent job of representing the people of Kingham, Rollright & Enstone. I am confident that he will make a great councillor. He and his team are already working hard to gain the support of even more voters so that the ward can have a councillor who fights for a fairer, greener, cleaner future - a Green Councillor."

We must address the climate and ecological emergency

The seemingly endless list of emergencies and crises created by the last 13 years of this Government's mismanagment, has not reduced the need to take urgent and radical actions to address the causes and impact of the climate and ecological emergency.
 
Putting the climate change deniers to one side, it is almost universally accepted that  the consequences of climate change will be much more severe and long lasting than the coronavirus epidemic or even Brexit. Yet the two major parties cling on to the belief that Growth will solve all our problems!
 
In the Green Party we know that by tackling the climate crisis we can also address the drivers of the economic crisis. Remove dependence upon fossil fuels, and create more jobs especially in the renewable energy sector and in retrofitting of existing homes to be more energy efficient.
 
The Green Party policies are eminently practical and would, not only ensure a radical response to the climate crisis, but also tackle social inequities and put us in a better position to address future emergencies such as the pandemic.
