Green Party Leader Visit to Rugby a great success!
Rugby Green Party spokesperson Roy Sandison says “The day
could not have gone any better”.
“ Natalie was able to tour the town centre with local
members pointing out the damage of the out of town shopping policy being
promoted by the Tory Council at the expense of our town centre.”
“Natalie had an exciting visit to Works 4 Me -a ground
breaking Employment, Art and Recycling enterprise for people with Learning
difficulties in Albert Street including taking questions from people with
Learning Difficulties about how the Green Party is able to support them”.
“Natalie was quizzed on Green ideas by school students
at Paddox School including meeting members of their Eco-Council”
“Natalie met representatives from the Newbold Chapel Cafe
using ‘waste food’ to tackle poverty in their community. Natalie shared ideas
about how other similar projects were gaining funds and why the Government
needed to change its policies.”
“And finally finishing off the day with a packed public
meeting of local people taking questions and hearing about our policies on the
EU, Workers Rights, Opposing privatisation of the NHS, Support for the Junior
Doctors Strikes and tackling climate change.”
“It was a really good visit and Natalie was impressed by how
local people were coming together to promote enterprise and defend our
community” says Roy
