#Ani4Deputy
Ani offers hope over pain.
Such an impressive deputy leader candidate.
Politics can be this.
#ani4deputy
🏳️⚧️ I’m standing, not just as a candidate for DEPUTY LEADER—but as a member of the trans and non-binary community who’s had enough. 😤
Enough of our conferences have been hijacked by a loud minority of anti-trans activists.
This is sabotage and it’s time we did something about it…
#ani4deputy
Meanwhile _in addition_ to fail to adapt after GE2024 to realise that there are some mayoralitys that we should be targeting (WECA mayor is only the first such...).
Daft, daft, daft.
Go #Ani4Deputy!
For too long GPEX have played it safe.
💪 I want to give local parties the trust and material backing they deserve.
I am not running for Deputy Leader to play nice.
I’m running to shake the foundations of how we organise and how we win.
#Ani4Deputy
But I _have_ committed to #Ani4deputy. Why the difference? I can't imagine a better person than Ani for deputy leader of the GP. I can just imagine a better candidate for leader than those that have put themselves forward, even if I don't think a better candidate will stand.

Quote "I got to know Ani best when during a visit to Bristol on Party business, Ani walked with me through their ward, and we compared notes on representing inner-urban deprived wards./I've been impressed by Ani's level-headed response to issues and dedication to the Party and to equality" Quote is presented in white on a dark green background with massive quotation marks. On lighter green, top right the words Ani Townsend for Deputy Leader. Bottom left Ben Foley/Councillor/Bedford. Bottom right a circular picture of Ben, masc presenting, wearing a trilby hat, specs and a red and white scarf. In the background tower blocks.
I'm really pleased to say #Ani4deputy of the #GreenParty (England and Wales). Ani is an excellent person with great judgement and commitment who has my full support.
