Thank you, citizens
• I WOULD like to thank the 16,782 Barnet and Camden citizens who voted for the Green Party in the London Assembly Elections.
The fact that nearly 10 per cent of the electorate now vote Green will continue to make all politicians take action to combat climate change; and take notice of the importance of sustainability, protecting the environment, and social justice.
Thanks to the Green vote Jenny Jones and Darren Johnson will be standing up for our Green agenda and representing the party on the London Assembly.
It was a tremendous success for us Greens that Alex Goodman has become the third Green councillor on Camden Council representing Highgate ward.
Sian Berry gave us a strong Green voice in the mayoral election.
I am sad that my Barnet colleague Noel Lynch and Sian are not elected to join Jenny and Darren on the London Assembly, and that my personal second choice in the mayoral election after Sian – Lindsey German – did not win back her deposit as her strong stance against the Iraq war and the war in Afghanistan should have guaranteed.
It was a great pleasure to represent Barnet and Camden Green parties, as the constituency candidate for the third time.
The high vote shows that the people of Barnet and Camden want to take action to cut carbon and improve our quality of life; by taking more green choices like cycling, recycling, and improving home insulation; and educating all our children to the highest standards; to allow them to face the future with tenacity.
Miranda Dunn
Barnet Green Party Office, N3
