Winchester Green Party contested 4 Winchester wards in the May 1st local elections...
In every ward we contested we beat Labour and UKIP!
We're obviously very, very pleased with such a strong result for such a young local party. It's a great start and a great basis for Winchester's our first Green councillor!
Thank you to everyone who voted for us!
