North Northamptonshire Green Party were delighted to announce that they stood candidates in every single one of the 68 available seats for the North Northamptonshire Council elections on May 1st.
This meant that every voter in North Northamptonshire could use all of their votes to vote Green for the first time.
In addition to this, we stood candidates for all 20 seats on Kettering Town Council and had candidates for Corby, Wellingborough and Higham Ferrers Town Councils.
This demonstrated the immense local support people are showing for the Green Party and how motivated our members are to put their name on the ballot paper.
In 2021, three Green Party councillors were elected to North Northamptonshire Council and in 2024, former Mayor of Kettering, Cllr Emily Fedorowycz, gained the most votes for the Green Party in the East Midlands when she stood for Parliament. Emily said,
“From speaking to residents on the doorstep, we know that local people are disillusioned with the Westminster parties and their politics as usual approach. Green Party candidates care about the issues that matter to our communities. We want to support local businesses, create a thriving local economy while connecting communities and ensuring where new housing is built, it comes with the much-needed services to match.”
“The Green Party are the only party who offer a credible and positive alternative to the Westminster parties. We offer a politics of real hope and real change and in 2025 residents can elect more hard-working Greens who can be trusted to represent them at the council.”
