Despite a petition amassing well over 100 signatures in 7 days, media coverage and pressure from the Electoral Reform Society to include all six parties in the televised leaders debate, the BBC have still not confirmed Wales Green Party attendance.
Over the last 12 months membership of the Wales Green Party has tripled. We will be fielding candidates in constituencies across Wales, and already have our candidates for all regional lists, where we have a very strong chance of winning our first seat in the Senedd in the Welsh Assembly election in May.
In the most recent polls (30 Nov – 4 Dec 2015), on the regional level, the Wales Green Party equalled the percentage support of the Lib Dems, demonstrating that on a proportional level, our policies at least equal the popularity of those proposed by a party who is always included in leaders debates.
We need to make sure that the BBC #invitethegreens. Sign our online petition here and contact BBC Wales to let them know what you think.
