Motion text

The Young Greens note:

  • The Green Party strongly criticises the first past the post system,
    believing it is unfair and wastes votes; instead, it supports Proportional
    Representation through a Single Transferable Vote.
  • The Nouveau Front Populaire in France, a bloc of leftists and
    environmentalists, worked together to prevent a landslide electoral
    victory by the far right.

The Young Greens believe that:

  • The Green Party exists as a platform to reach beyond Westminster.
  • Our members are strong organisers and activists: we regularly work with
    campaigns such as environmentalist groups, worker’s unions and solidarity
    groups, collaborating with people who may be members of other parties.

The Young Greens resolve to:

  • Support permitting members of the Green Party of England and Wales to be
    members of other national parties which the Green Party Council approves
    as aligned with our values, subject to ongoing assessments.
  • Request the Young Greens Executive Committee to lobby for this change.
