Greens co-leader Carla Denyer full interview – “We’re here to get Greens elected and get stuff done”

The Greens pulled off an all-time best performance in the 2024 General Election, doubling their vote share to a historic high of 6.4% and winning four MPs. But can they handle the transition from outsiders to effective Parliamentary party? How do they square the need to remake Britain as a low-carbon economy and the traditional Green suspicion of development? And can they peel away disillusioned left voters from Labour? Co-leader Carla Denyer talks to Andrew Harrison about another green world.  

 

• “Rachel Reeves’ line that ‘there is no money’ is pretty misleading… This is one of the richest economies in the world.” 

• “There are policies everyone agrees on… but only the Greens are offering them.”
