The Green Party today confirmed Dr Freya Summersgill as their candidate for the Brentford and Isleworth constituency in the General Election on 4 July 2024.
Freya said, "I am honoured to have been chosen as the Green Party’s candidate for Brentford and Isleworth. In recent years, more and more people have realised that far from being just about the environment, the Green Party stands for a totally differently way of doing politics and for pragmatic, proven policies that can transform our country. Green politicians are different and can be trusted to have the integrity people expect – unlike the other parties.”
“It’s clear for everyone to see that our country is in a total mess: politics as usual hasn’t worked and we need a new approach. That’s why the Green Party has grown so rapidly – we’ve seen a surge in Green Party politicians elected over the last couple of years, and this momentum will continue into the General Election.”
“Only the Green Party has a credible plan to sort out all of the major problems we face. Tackling the cost of living crisis also means rapid action to tackle the climate emergency, and both of these things connect to building a much fairer Britain – like taking action on the sewage pouring into our rivers by solving the capacity problems at Mogden sewage works. Or addressing the affordability and availability of housing with protection for renters as well as transforming the planning system so that new developments work for local people and have great community services.”
“If you agree with me that the time has come for a genuinely different approach that will get Britain back on its feet after the turmoil of recent years, please vote for me at the General Election on 4 July.
