As Labour slides to the right, the Green Party is shifting to the
left. Are the Greens destined to displace Labour as the main left party
of democracy,social justice, human rights, peace and environmental
protection?
Opinion polls reveal growing public support for the Green Party. Labour
membership is down and the Labour vote is down. Many people who are
disillusioned with Blairism and Brownism are joining the Greens.
The Green Party is the fastest growing and most effective progressive party
in British politics. It already has nearly 100 local councillors, two MEPs,
seven Members of the Scottish Parliament and two members of the London
Assembly.
On his weekly TV programme, Talking With Tatchell, human rights campaigner
Peter Tatchell interviews Derek Wall, Principal Male Speaker of the Green
Party.
