I am John Kelly and I am standing for the Green Party in Longdendale I believe in both the environmental issues and the community

policies that the Green Party stands for. In terms of the environment,my interests became focussed during my time as a councillor and as a member of the Carbon Reduction Forum. I have since researched many aspects of environmental concern including peak oil climate change, fracking and population issues. I also believe that only the Green Party supports the issues relating to community, fairness in economics and is able to combine these with long term environmental considerations. I would welcome the opportunity to represent the Green Party in Tameside and to take the cause onto the streets and into the homes of the people of Tameside.
