Greens have been represented on Malvern Hills District Council
since 1987, and a Liberal Democrat-Green Party
alliance led the District Council from 2003 to
2007, with Green Councillor John Raine having
executive responsibility for Planning &
Sustainability. Under his leadership we saw an
increasingly active programme of initiatives to
green the district.
The group meets at the Foley Arms, Worcester Road, Great Malvern on
the first Tuesday of each month at 7.30 in the
Royal Kent Suite, and new faces are always
welcome. It is best to make contact first:

Malcolm
Victory selected as Green Party parliamentary
candidate for West Worcestershire constituency
On the 12th September, Malcolm Victory was officially
selected as the Green Party PPC (Prospective
Parliamentary Candidate) for West
Worcestershire. Sir Michael Spicer is retiring
at the next general election in favour of
Harriet Baldwin, so Malcolm will now be the
senior candidate in the race by virtue of having
fought the same battle twice before.

Victory commented: “Voters at general
elections normally prefer to vote tactically,
thinking a Green vote is wasted. However, when
one sees how the ruling parties approach the
problem; sticking to growth as the key factor,
and using green taxes as a revenue earner to
spend elsewhere rather than on real change, and
providing little or no stimulus to new
technologies or assistance to householders
bearing the brunt of the burden, one realises
that a Green vote is very important - as a
signal that they are all failing.” He said.
“That is far more positive than not to vote at
all, like so many disillusioned electors.”

The
free cycle group concept is now national and
matches people who have things they need to get
rid of with people who can use them. Their goal
is to keep usable items out of landfill sites. www.freecycle.org
