Thank you for voting in our most successful election (so far!)

Thank you to everyone who supported Green campaigns over recent weeks.

Nationally, the party now has four MPs. This includes in Bristol Central, where many South Glos Green members and supporters helped with campaigning.

Within South Gloucestershire, we achieved our best parliamentary election result ever, making huge vote share gains in all four South Glos seats, retaining Green deposits in three of them. And, in Bristol North East, Lorraine Francis came second, meaning we head towards the 2027 council elections with Greens the potential favourites to unseat Labour in nine South Glos council seats.

All of this was only possible because of ordinary Green Party members and supporters like you canvassing, putting leaflets through doors, sharing social media posts, putting up posters and donating to campaigns. Thank you for your support.

And thank you to our four parliamentary candidates in South Gloucestershire – Lorraine, James, Alex and Edmund.
