We, the Hulme
Green Team would like to thank everyone voted for us this year.
We also would
like to thank everyone who put in time, creative input, proofed, leafleted, were
on the streets, commented and advised us. It was a great effort.
But we came
second.
And that
being the case we congratulate Labour’s Amina Lone on her re-election as
councillor for the Hulme ward.

We held our
proportion of the vote in Hulme, against a Labour victory in Manchester which
saw all
Lib Dem councillors standing lose their seats.
The Greens
as a party beat the Conservatives into third place for the first time in
Manchester and were not far behind the Lib Dems.
In the London
Mayoral elections, the
Green Party’s Jenny Jones beat the Lib Dems into third place.
If you’re a
Lib Dem supporter, it’s not been a good few months, have a look at our policies, have a look at our
leader Caroline Lucas.
For Hulme and
the electoral process, it has not been a good poll. The turnout was 16.98%
which extremely low and the
second worst in the city.
83% of Hulme residents didn’t vote. Politics is
either not reaching residents or its not relevant.
Hulme Green Party
will listen and work to address our community concerns as well as working harder
to make its message heard.
