The Green Party made impressive progress in Broadland where our hard-working candidate, Eleanor Laming, came a creditable second to the Conservatives in the Thorpe St Andrew Division. Eleanor polled over 700 votes well above Labour (579) and the Liberal Democrats (197). Focussing our campaigning shows that when we get our message out people are willing to vote for Green policies.
The Green Party won back three county council seats to be represented at County Hall once again. The EDP highlighted the gains made by the Green Party in both County Council and City Council elections winning seats in Thorpe Hamlet, the division adjacent to Thorpe St Andrew, which bodes well for the district elections in 2023.
