We are delighted to hear that a deal has been reached in the long running dispute at the National Coal Mining Museum. This is a victory for the Unison union, and tribute to the workers who stayed out and picketed for months. This dispute was completely mismanaged by the Board and senior management.

We have been absolutely overwhelmed with the number of "Vote Green" signs and posters across our district. Thank you so much to everyone for all of your support. It really means the world to us! 💚

A key part of our plans to deliver Real Change for Our Places and Environment is a commitment to protecting and celebrating our heritage. Read more about our plans for Real Change 👉️ wakefieldgreenparty.org.uk/manifesto/

Happy St. George's Day from everyone at Wakefield District Green Party! 💚 We are proud to be the only political party standing in the May elections to have a commitment to protecting and celebrating our heritage in our local manifesto.

Tory cruelty and Labour lies have devasted our district. Don't let Reform finish the job. Become a part of our people powered movement. Vote Green on 7th May and help us make hope normal again.

Today is Earth Day 2026. The Green Party is committed to fighting vested interests of the fossil fuel industry and their efforts to spread climate denial to protect their profits. And across the Wakefield district, we're committed to delivering Real Change for our Places and Environment.

Labour's Ridings Centre fiasco just doesn't want to stop. They're buying it. They're not buying it. They're buying it. Is this another Labour backdoor deal? How much more taxpayers money has the council paid out to secure this? The people of Wakefield need to be told.

The Ridings Centre fiasco goes from bad to worse. Wakefield Labour doesn't listen, doesn't learn, and can't even buy a building properly. Time for them to go 🥀 Vote Green on May 7th, for the Real Change that our city centre and district needs 💚
