Local Elections 2026

I am standing as a candidate for the Green Party in the local council elections for the London Borough of Barnet on May 7th 2026, in High Barnet ward.

I live in Abbotts Road in New Barnet, near Highlands Gardens.

Most Green Party policies are long term measures aiming to reduce resource consumption and environmental degradation. In the short term as a councillor, I would try to bring more transparency to the council, reporting back on whatever meetings I am allowed to, and supporting whistle blowers who may have information about where things could be done better.

For more about the policies of the Green Party of England and Wales, take a look at the manifesto for the 2024 general election at https://greenparty.org.uk/about/our-manifesto/.

Do get in touch if you would like more information, or to tell me about any policy which you think I should support.

Promoted by Joan Waterson on behalf of Charles Wicksteed and Barnet Green Party, all at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ.
