The Green party’s former deputy leader, Adrian Ramsay, has returned to politics to run for the party’s vacant leadership alongside Carla Denyer, a former wind farm engineer and award-winning Green Party councillor.

Denyer, who sits as part of the largest Green Party group in local government on Bristol Council, told the New Statesman that she and Ramsay were “standing on a platform of putting compassion back into politics: compassion for each other, our communities and the natural world”.
