Sarra Earl and Ivan Noke - Internal Communications Co-ordinator

 

1.      What impact do you think the Green Party’s eco-socialist

policies have had on the party’s growth and how can that be sustained?


Not enough ‘impact’ / must try harder and smarter.



2.      The recent Tory by-election defeats suggest the electorate are

making their own decisions on strategic voting. How can the Green

Party intervene to turn that to its advantage?


Communicate more / better / smarter.

3.      What would be your priorities for campaigns outside election

periods that would raise our profile in communities, engage our

members and attract new ones? How could that be financed?


Enable / empower every local GP group to communicate  better / smarter.


4.      How can the Party improve the way it communicates its policies

to the BAME and white working class?


See previous answers.



5.      Should the Green Party review its policy on NATO in the light

of the current conflict in Ukraine and what would be your approach?


Absolutely  – prioritise ALL ‘State of the Planet’ threats and dangers
over warring.



6.      The 24 hours news cycle means that contributions from our

spokespeople have to be rapid if they are to be given media space. How

can we manage that whilst maintaining democratic accountability?

Create our own effective local-global-networked-Green-Media.



7.      Given that some Government policies such as privatisation and

reducing rights are a thread crossing different sectors how can

spokespeople cooperate on our overall messaging to ensure this is

addressed?

More and better / smarter / awareness-raising of ALL GP members and staff.



8.      How would you raise the international relevance and profile of the GPEW?

Raise ‘relevance’ of ALL GP’s internationally.



9.      The Green Party has recently encountered difficulties in

maintaining a respectful and comradely debate on issues where there

has been sharp disagreement. What would be your approach to improving

the atmosphere in which these debates take place?


By changing priorities / educating / ‘Greening-up’ of ALL GP members.



10.  How can we ensure a level playing field in internal elections

when some candidates have the advantage of access to a national

platform and networks?


All local GP groups need to take this on - according to local
conditions / more sharing across regions – there should be no
inequality of any kind in the GPEW.
