Name: Dr Caroline Lucas

Candidate for: Brighton Pavilion

Party: Green

Votes: 16,238

Profile:

Why I want to be an MP: It would be a huge honour and privilege to serve as MP for Brighton Pavilion. If elected, I pledge to work tirelessly to put social and environmental justice at the top of the political agenda, and to be a strong and independent voice at Westminster. I’d strive both to serve the constituency, and to contribute to the renewal of politics and to the building of a fairer, more sustainable future. The first Green MP would have far more impact than one more Labour or one more Tory – and the best way to keep the Tories out is to vote Green.

Marital status: Married
Born: December 9, 1960, Malvern, Worcestershire
Address: Marlborough Street, Brighton
Occupation: Member of the European Parliament
Interests/hobbies: Watching the films at the Duke of York Cinema, eating in Brighton's great cafe culture, curling up with a good book and spending time with my family and cats!

There is a heading on the Greens website: 'What Have Your Green Councillors Achieved?' It's a good question. At no point does it mention the The Green Party's support for the schools lottery system in Brighton. You might expect other parties to be economical with information that might not be considered vote-winning. But as a party of principle, it undermines Green Party credibility that it's playing the same game as all the other political organisations.
How could a party with environmental issues at its heart support a plan that has led to greater displacement of pupils and, as a result, more traffic, congestion and fuel waste? Unfortunately, it suggests that The Green Party's hunger for power is greater than its hunger for change.

Please correct me if I am wrong but it appears that this lady is already a member of the privileged few as an MEP - what has she done for us there and how much has she cost us? If she is elected will she draw 2 excessive salaries for doing nothing or will she be content with one?

After reading Caroline's hobbies and interests, she comes across as a lazy and laid back person. God help us all.
