Hi, I'm Natalie Carlswell, and I'm here standing for the Green Party in Middorth and Northpool. I decided to stand here because I'm so angry about what politics has become and how the main parties are not doing enough to even start to deal with what's coming. So I'm here to give people, like yourselves, a chance to use your vote to demand action on the climate emergency. My involvement in business and finance from studying it to being in banking and lecturing on it to currently running our own sustainability consultancy has given me so much experience in how we can do business differently. For example, we don't run our own business with financial profit as a way of measuring our success, but on how much spare time we've been able to create to spend with our family and how good we feel that we're not being stressed all the time. We can, if we are brave enough, and have vision, change the way we do society and economics in this country, and we can lead the world in doing things differently. And at the centre of everything, we need to protect this planet. All the Green Party's policies come from a planet first basis, so we protect this planet and this country's wonderful wildlife first and work out how to do society and economics from there. It requires smart people with smart out-of-the-box thinking and the Green Party have plenty of them. We know that money needs to be generated to pay for this, so we create industries that fuel our homes with renewable energy and we make industry pay their fair share. We help our NHS, not only by funding it, but also looking at the underlying issues of why so many people are having to use it. It's a holistic approach to economics. The Green Party manifesto is the most exciting and visionary manifesto, and it is all-costed. And although the numbers are eye-watering, we've not been afraid to be honest about it, because we need to spend this money now and over the next 10 years, because if we don't, we will be spending so much more in the long term and not only in monetary towns. A report has just come out with a list of the marginal seats where tactical voting will work. Mid-Dawson and Northpool isn't one of them. So you can use your vote to send a clear message to this government that you want the climate emergency to be part of their agenda. The last debate between the leaders of the other main parties didn't mention the climate crisis once. They didn't even talk about their environmental policies. This tells you everything you need to know about the main parties. There's a lot of talk, but will there be action? So vote green to keep the climate emergency on the political agenda, because if not now, when?
