Why I'm Green - Robert Nixon - Joined April 2015

I joined the Green Party in April 2015 as a member of the Young Greens and since then have become an active member of the North Oxfordshire Green Party. It’s really enjoyable to take part in discussion and debate within the party as well as talking to voters in Cherwell and discussing the issues that matter to them. Why I got involved in politics Whilst watching the TV debates and attending a local hustings event in the run-up to the 2015 General election, I had the overwhelming feeling that mainstream politicians were not addressing the issues that mattered to people in a practical way, particularly the young.  I got involved in politics through a desire to change people's lives for the better, to help people who are struggling at the hands of crippling Government spending cuts and Government policy and to attempt to take responsibility for the way in which we are treating the Earth.

Bicester Development: A Green Perspective

Bicester is currently undergoing the building of new developments including housing. Additional housing is something the Greens campaign for to address the national housing crisis. However new local housing developments are often built in the interests of those that can afford expensive luxury homes and not local people, particularly the young, who want to live close to where they have lived all their lives. New developments in Bicester increasingly make you feel that the town is being formed, not in the interests of local people, but the interests of those purely seeking to profit from new developments. The voice of Bicester residents needs to be heard loud and clear in decision making at all-levels of Government, particularly by the town and district councillors that are tasked with representing them. Decisions taken by the district council recently seem to have been decided by party politics rather than what makes the greatest positive difference to local people’s lives.

Ian Middleton responds to 'Rising fears for Centres' article in the Banbury Cake

I read with interest reports in the local press that members of the Banbur y and Bicester Labour group have criticised the final County Council budget that agreed to massive and damaging cuts in local spending, many of which will directly impact the vulnerable in the co unty, particularly children, the old and the vulnerable . I was at the very long meeting where these cuts were agreed and I have to say that in my opinion the spirit of opposition was very much a bsent from the Labour members in the chamber. Their leader Liz Brighouse gave a long and somewhat nebulous spee ch prior to the vote where she expressed concern with keeping council tax at current levels for people on low incomes, whilst simultaneously ignoring the fact that many of the cuts her group had agreed to would directly impact them. The Green Party were alone in presenting budget amendments which would have removed the need for virtually all the cuts to services by, amongst other measures, reducing councillo
