Tony Juniper and Sir Jonathan Porritt talk about the value of voting Green
in the local and European elections.
They were attending the official launch of the Green party's election
campaign in the East of England region. Our lead candidate in the East of
England is Rupert Read, the party's spokesperson on public services, and a
councillor in Norwich.
Tony Juniper, former director of Friends of the Earth, and now the Green
Party's candidate for Cambridge in the next general election, said: "We
cannot continue with the high-consumption, high-pollution, resource-wasting
economy that Europe has gotten used to. We need Greens in the European
Parliament to make that happen."
Sir Jonathan Porritt is founder of Forum for the Future, a former director
of FoE, and chair of the Sustainable Development Commission. Sir Jonathan
said: "The Green Party is the only party that has consistently told the
truth about the state of the Earth, and our relationship with it, over the
last 35 years. The party's ideas remain as relevant and as radical as all
those years ago."
