We believe the politics of the future doesn’t have to look like the politics of the past – something that’s represented not only through our policies but in the way they are developed.
- We aim to create a just, equitable and sustainable society. We focus our efforts primarily, though not exclusively, through the electoral system.
- Our members come from all walks of life; most of them are not professional politicians, but each of them can have a voice in how our policies are written, updated and amended.
- Uniquely, the Green Party of England & Wales is wholly democratic.
Our policy is developed by ordinary members, not just the leadership, and passed at conference to which every member is invited so you can directly affect our policies by becoming a member. - We believe that by ensuring each individual voice is heard and listened to, we can achieve our goal of building a society and political system that works for the common good.
