Transcripts

Adrien Ramsey this is looking like a

change election most people have decided

that if they want to be part of the

change they should vote labor why are

they wrong well people do definitely

want a change in this election that

comes up on the doorstep all the time

people feel desperately let down by this

government but they're not feeling

inspired by labor either and yes we're

on track for there to be a labor

government but rather than K starma

having such a huge majority where he can

continue to take u-turns all the time as

he's been doing on climate and on

funding for public services if we have

more of a d diversity of voices in

Parliament including a group of green

MPS we can push the new government to be

bolder on the big issues that matter so

you want to be a leftwing pressure group

in Parliament basically to the left of

Labor well I I'm talking about the poll

showing that we're on track to have a

labor government and we need to push

that government out of its timid pledges

that it's making at the moment for the

real hope and real change that we

actually need if we're going to restore

our NHS build more affordable housing

tackle the scandal of sewage in our

Rivers we need bold action on these

issues and by having a group of green

MPS in Parliament we'll really change

the political debate and push the new

government to take the changes that our

country so desperately needs I mean

Peter mandon has said that you've become

the dust bin for disgruntled leftists

that's true isn't it well if you look at

where the Green Party Support is right

around the country we've just come out

of a set of Elections where over the

last last five years in a row greens

have gained a record number of seats

we've increased our number of elected

greens right across the country fivefold

and the seats that we're winning are

from labor and from the conservatives in

roughly equal numbers in urban areas and

rural areas but your positions on most

things are to the left aren't you you're

a high tax High spend you know you want

radical action on the environment you've

got all sorts of you know weird and

wonderful policies about how you're

going to nationalize public transport

and have one pound bus fairs and also

sorts of things that will never happen

and the cost a fortune and they're all

to the left of Labor and they attract

the left don't they they attract people

from a wide range of areas and if you

look at the places where we've got a

strong chance of winning seats at this

election places like Bristol Central and

Brighton Pavilion in cities places like

North herfordshire and wavery Valley in

rural areas those policies appeal to

people across the Spectrum it you don't

have to be on the left to care about the

environment I was speaking to a

gentleman yesterday in Haworth in the

constituency where I'm standing he's a

grandfather and he said to me that he

usually votes conservative but that he's

thinking about what the future's going

to be like for his children and

grandchildren fundamentally failed on on

the green agenda in that Net Zero has

kind of fallen off you know the

conservatives have gone back labor is

talking about clean energy rather than

Net Zero I mean you know the central aim

of the green party has been set back in

the last two years not forward well what

you've set out chrishan is how both uh

the main parties have let people down on

the action that's needed on the

environment and yes this is about

tackling the climate crisis and it's

about creating a better Society because

if we invest in the better public

transport that we need if we support our

Farmers to produce more food locally if

we insulate our homes so we bring bills

down and keep homes warm if we invest in

renewable energy to tackle the energy

crisis all these things will create a

better Society for people and people

right across the country are desperate

for that sort of change they're fed up

with the scandal of sewage in our rivers

with the lack of affordable housing with

our NHS at breaking point and the green

part is the only party going into this

election being honest with people that

if we're going to make the changes

that's that are needed we are going to

have to ask the very richest in society

the multi-millionaires the billionaires

to pay just modestly more in tax I'm

talking about it's not just the very

rich is it because you want to remove

the cap on National insurance for

example that affects anybody earning

more than £45,000

that's true we do think we think we

think the percentage that people pay on

National Insurance should be the same

regardless of their earnings rather you

want taxes to go on everyone for 45,000

at the moment the people who are on the

lower to Middle incomes are actually

paying a higher percentage of their

income on National Insurance that

doesn't seem right

lete let let let me be clear Christian

that the place where we are looking for

the ba vast bulk of funding that we are

seeking to raise so that we can restore

our NHS we can tackle the dentist Dental

desert we can tackle the patients in

corridors in our hospitals the vast

majority of that funding is going to

come from asking the multi-millionaires

the the billionaires people with over 10

million in assets to pay 1% on any any

wealth over 10 million so also want to

raise capital gains tax to the same rate

as income tax that will hit every small

business in the country everyone who

builds a business and dreams of selling

it one day to create their nest EG will

be hit massively by that as an idea

that's not multi-millionaires that's

ordinary hardworking small business

owners well actually the green party has

a lot of policies in our Manifesto for

how we would support small businesses

because small businesses are

the economy I mean you know what we're

talking about is that there's a lot of

people in um Society who earn income

from

assets and the percentage of that that

income is taxed at is significantly

lower than people who earn their income

from being employed and yes we would

like to equalize that as part of a range

of measures that will raise the money

that's needed to restore our NHS to

bring about a transition to a green

future but we also have a whole Suite of

policies which will be reflected in our

Mass Manifesto coming out about how we

can support and Safeguard particularly

small and independent businesses which

are the Bedrock of so many of our

communities and particularly in the

market towns in norol and suffk that I'm

out in every day those small businesses

are a crucial part of those local towns

and the green party more than any party

wants to really support and see how we

can really help small businesses to play

a huge role in those areas isn't the

truth that you've been caught on the Hop

like many people by this early election

in terms of both policy and candidates I

mean you you've you've had to take down

a load of pages from your website of

sort of some of the the the more

eccentric policies um that you had in

the past um and you haven't got the new

ones up yet um and you haven't sorted

out all your candidates I mean you know

you're still facing that sort of problem

of being a bit crazy in places Christian

we are better prepared going into this

election than we have ever been before

last time I checked we had far more

candidates selected than the

conservative party did we've got a clear

strategy going into

this the distinction you're making there

Christian is around policies that we had

in place for a long-term vision for

society compared to as all parties do

we'll be producing our Manifesto for

what we were putting forward for this

next five years of this next Parliament

that Manifesto is coming out on the 12th

of June it's been in preparation for a

long time so the fully costed elements

of it that you were starting to refer to

we've been planning for some time so we

can show how we would get the funding

that's needed to restore our NHS to

transition to a green economy to make

sure we have affordable housing to

tackle the crisis of affordable housing

in this country so we've got clear

costed policies that we'll show in our

Manifesto we've got candidates selected

for all corners of the country more than

ever before you withraw and if I could

add to that Christian we've got a clear

strategy for this election because we

know that under the voting system we've

got greens need to finish first in

certain constituencies to win seats and

we've got big concentrations of support

in places like wavery Valley Bristol

Central North Heritage here Brighton

Pavilion where people in those areas

know that greens are the main Challenger

and our activists are actively

supporting our laser focus campaign in

those areas to get greens elected

because we're not about shaving a few

votes off another party we're about

having elected greens representing their

communities and pushing this government

the new government we're expecting to be

bold for the real hope and real change

that our country needs but isn't this

the real problem that you have that you

still got crackpots standing for you and

people who just say things that are

unacceptable you've had people had to

withdraw because of alleged

anti-Semitism uh within within the party

over the Israel Gaza um war and you know

the green party suffers massively from

our current elector system um but what

that means is you know you just don't

work in a British political context do

you in the in the way that European

green parties do well the green par has

really come of age in recent years we

have increased our number of counselors

right across England and Wales byold in

The Last 5 Years the number of councils

where greens are part of the

administration is 40 we have 10 councils

where greens are the largest party so we

are playing a huge role in democracy in

this country already and in terms of our

candidates we are planning to stand

candidates right across England and

Wales there are there are 570 seats

wherever any questions have been raised

about things candidates have said in the

past those are being investigated

through the right channels internally

there have been three candidates out of

the 570 seats where the person who was

selected is no longer in place there's a

small number more still being looked at

and you could look at any political

party and there are examples that you'll

know of and you'll have covered where

people have been selected and later

resigned or withdrawn those numbers are

not higher in the green party than they

are anywhere else and actually the fact

that you're looking at us with the same

scrutiny as the other parties the fact

that you can look at local councils

where greens are having a real impact on

people's everyday lives locally the fact

that we're talking about having a record

number of green MPS pushing this next

government to be bold in an election

that's turning out to be frankly quite

boring and where greens are putting

forward the policies that are really

needed for real hope and real change for

the future that's what shows that the

green party is running our most

ambitious campaign ever and that we've

really come of age as a party do you

still want to rejoin the EU so our

Manifesto will set out our policy in

relation to the European Union what it

will say is that we want to have much

stronger working relation relationships

with the European Union in a number of

ways and there was there were some

shortterm

Meen no the other it will say in there

that our position over time is to with

rejoin the EU when the conditions are

right political and economic conditions

so not talking about doing that

immediately but what we do want to do is

to be very clear as a party that we're

in internationalist party that the big

issues of our time whether that's

climate whether that's issues of digital

technology whether it's around global

inequality trade uh skills shortages all

of these issues need to be tackled

through Global cooperation and so greens

want to be close to our European

partners and there's a number of steps

that could be taken even while we're

outside the EU to improve those steps

and sadly we've seen too many people

looking for headlines and pushing our

country in a more of an isolationist

Direction I mean to have a future you

need to attract young voters is the

truth but what's your offer to young

people I mean you know you're you're not

really offering them much on housing um

you know why vote green if you're 20

years old well I was 16 when I first

joined the green party over 25 years ago

and I joined because I knew that the

green party was the party that really

understood that the climate crisis is

the defining issue of our time that

global inequality is something that

needs urgent action to be addressed and

as one of the richest countries in the

world we can play a leading role in that

and those issues us have only got

greater in that time and in terms of

Housing and the specific issues that

affect people dayto day that we've made

housing one of our Central planks in

this Manifesto we need far more

affordable housing in this country

there's over a million people on the

council house waiting list so we're very

clear we would be far tougher with

developers to require that there's more

affordable housing for people to buy in

any new development being tougher on

developers means less less homes get

built well it's about it's about the

right homes being built because well

it's about more homes being built the

people I speak to in East Anglia and

around the country all the time are

seeing homes being built that are out of

the reach of local people people are

being priced out of being able to live

in their own local community so and that

applies to people seeking to buy it

applies to people seeking to rent we

need more Council homes we would give

councils the power to borrow more and

give them more funding to build more

Council housing 150,000 new Council

homes a year we've pledged which could

be a combination of new builds and

refurbishing or bringing back into use

empty homes or homes that are being sold

by landlords exiting the market that's

not enough either is it but that that

will make a huge difference but what we

also need to do is give support to

people who are renting in the private

rented sector where there are some

examples of private landlords hiking up

rents well above the rate of inflation

certainly well above the rates that

people's wages are going up and we would

give local councils the power to

introduce controls on rents based on the

local circumstances and what's needed to

keep rents affordable locally and that's

a very practical policy that will

support particularly young people K

starma says he's relaxed about people

being rich and getting richer are

you well greens have a vision for a

future where we are investing in the

transition to an environmentally

friendly way of living renewable energy

that can keep people's bills down

insulating people's homes in a way that

means the homes are warmer that they

bills are not going up all the time

improve public transport supporting our

Farmers to produce more of our food

locally and so the transition to a green

economy will present huge job

opportunities for people around the

country huge opportunities for business

including the small businesses that we

were talking about so greens want an

economy that's really thriving but do

you want people to Aspire to be rich as

as labor does now what I want is a

society where everybody's basic needs

are met so that people are not

having to choose between Heating and

eating people can pay their bills people

have got good quality air to breathe

people can access an NHS dentist and

Doctor when they need to and if you just

approach economic policy in a way where

you're simply measuring the amount of

activity in the economy without looking

at do we have a healthy environment are

our Rivers full of sewage are people

able to access the NHS dentist and

Doctor when they need one are people

able to feed their children children

there CH child poverty has increased

enormously around this country if you

just take a blunt approach to economics

of just looking at growth for growth's

sake you fail to recognize that we have

a hugely unequal country and that we

only have one planet and what people say

to me all the time is that they want to

see parties taking the Urgent action on

the environment they know that labor and

the conservatives have let them down and

that's why we need greens as part of the

political debate in this election but in

Parliament after the election as well to

push the new government to be bolder on

these crucial issues of our time I mean

isn't the truth that since 2010 you've

had one MP you've been constantly

talking about

breakthrough and the truth is this

election could be the the one where the

greens go from one MP To None what's

happened since 2010 and particularly in

the last five years is that the strength

of green party the green party across

the country has grown enormously we've

increased our number of elected greens

councils

when it comes to Westminster Caroline

Lucas is stepping down and that kind of

tells you everything she's had enough

Caroline Lucas is very clear that she

wants to see a group of green MPS in

this next Parliament she's out on the

campaign Trail supporting our campaign

in places like Bristol Central wavy

Valley North Herer chair and Brighton

Pavilion places where we've got a big

concentration of green support where

greens are the main Challenger and where

it's very clear that if people want

there to be a green voice in Parliament

we can achieve that and we can push the

new government to be bolder because

whilst people desperately want to change

at this election they see that Labor's

pledges are timid and that we need real

hope and real change to tackle the

challenges this country faces and that

having greens as part of that political

debate will push the new Parliament the

new government in the right direction

give me one example where you would push

labor to be more hopeful to offer more

we need to put the investment that's

needed into the NHS so we are arguing

that we should ask the very richest in

society to pay modestly more in tax so

that we can afford to invest in our NHS

we're the only party being honest in

this election that we need to do that

our tax proposals are modest by European

standards asking people with 10 million

of wealth to pay 1% over that 10 million

but if we put in place measures like

that we will raise the funds that are

needed the tens of billions by the end

of this next Parliament that will enable

us to restore our NHS address the fact

that we've got patience in corridors

that the staff are severely

overstretched that people can't get

access to an NHS dentist when they need

one that our social care system is at

Breaking Point these are the changes

that we need so whether it's on public

services whether it's on affordable

housing whether it's on the climate

emergency is the defining issue of our

time having greens elected in the next

Parliament a group of green MPS to push

the new government to be bolder it

couldn't be more urgent that we press

the government to take the action that's

needed just finally I mean is it a

luxury that you enjoy that you're not

going to be the government so you don't

actually have to make your sums add up

you can throw ideas out there that might

well cost a fortune you don't really

need to worry about it because you can

throw them out there as nice ideas

things that would be nice to have you

don't have to be responsible do you

that's the truth look Christian my

background is as a charity chief

executive of National Environmental

Charities I'm used to running organiz

where you course you have to make the

budgets work you have to run the

organization effectively to have an

impact and we are producing a fully

costed Manifesto which will show exactly

how we would fund the proposals that

we're putting forward and we are doing

that just as rigorously as any other

party because we need to show the vision

for what this next Parliament could do

if we're going to tackle the defining

issues of our time growing inequality

too many children in far too many

children in poverty it's a scandal that

that's the case people not being able to

access an NHS dentist patients in

corridors in our hospitals our Rivers

full of sewage the climate emergency

being rather than taken as an

opportunity to create a fairer future

labor quick to overturn its Promises of

the money it was going to put in on all

these issues we desperately need more

greens as part of that political debate

in Parliament and we can get that at

this election by people voting with

their heart and voting for the real hope

and real change that this country needs

Adrian Ramsey thank you very much
