Local Green councillor Jonathan Kempster says voters are turning away from divisive rhetoric towards positive action on nature and community empowerment
No thanks. I don't come here for political lectures. On so many subjects I hate the Greens. You paint the side that's for the environment. Go back and ask their policies towards tax, defence, spending, Israel, Pro-Islamic rights, Trans rights, immigration/ borders, nuclear energy, nimbyism, NATO, hard drugs, The Union, etc.
Bunch of dangerous radical cranks, they'd either ruin the country, break it up or both.
It's what they call a 'puff piece' for the party. The article was entirely a soapbox for them, with zero criticism of either their local or, more importantly, their divisive national policies. A party political promoter could not have wished for more.
I look forward to similar pieces on Labour, Conservative and Liberal Democrat local politicians. When are these scheduled for publication?
Now are you a political publication or not? If not then I expect to see them soon otherwise you've declared your interest and I'm out.

Some balance please.
Hi Andrew - no lectures here. We’re not pro-Green just sharing an interview with a party gaining some traction in the area.
Appreciate your view and we will be sharing more diverse content over the coming year that we hope can stimulate some conversation and dialogue.
Thanks - James

I’d really like a piece on Reform Party
And some recognition of Lou Macari and his concern and help for the poorest among us
Good morning Janet, it's lovely to hear from you.
We did do a piece on Reform back in the summer, here it is: https://www.theknot.news/p/the-march-of-reform-whats-going-on
Great shout about Lou Macari. We're so pleased to hear that he recently won a £20,000 grant from the National Lottery Community Fund; more info here: https://macari-foundation.co.uk/2025/12/13/lottery-grant/
In 2026, the Macari Foundation will turn 10, too. We will be reaching out for an interview, so watch this space!
Have a great day and thanks for reading and your suggestion! Helen
