Greens set to join united EU party to fight elections

THE Green Party will this weekend join in an unprecedented move to unite all European Green parties to fight this summer’s elections on a joint platform.

This will for the first time unite a pan-European political grouping to campaign in an election on a common platform.

The new European Green Party, which will be officially founded in Rome this weekend, will produce a joint manifesto and produce a unified publicity campaign in the run-up to June’s European elections.
