Updated Green Party Euro list

While this blog is dedicated to promoting the re-election of the excellent Jean Lambert, it is important to realise that the European Elections take place on a PR 'list system' - and that Jean is at the top of an entire list of excellent candidates for the European Parliament. If the Green Party equalled its best ever vote in the European elections, not only would Jean be re-elected, but the number 2 candidate (Ute Michel) would also be going to Strasbourg. A Lewisham councillor and originally a German national, Ute would be a superb MEP - and that quality extends all the way down the list, with number 3 being the excellent Shahrar Ali (London Green Party Policy Co-ordinator) and number 4 being Joseph Healy, who is also Green Parliamentary candidate for Vauxhall and a former Green Party International Co-ordinator.

The full list, along with the boroughs that the candidates are from, is below. Jean's campaign team can always be contacted at reelectjean@hotmail.co.uk, and the next four candidates can all be contacted via email at electgreen[insertfirstname]@hotmail.co.uk. I.E. electgreenute@hotmail.co.uk etc.

1. Jean Lambert (Walthamstow)
2. Ute Michel (Lewisham)
3. Shahrar Ali (Brent)
4. Joseph Healy (Southwark)
5. Miranda Dunn (Barnet)
6. Shasha Khan (Croydon)
7. John Hunt (Hounslow)
8. Caroline Allen (Hackney)
