Fighting excessive housing development
Affordable homes and social housing for local people on brownfield sites
Greens in your area have been campaigning hard against the proliferation of huge luxury housing developments on farmlands and Greenfield sites being approved by the Labour/Lib Dem controlled Council.
Fighting for Clean Water
Holding Polluters to Account
Your local Green Party pioneered the citizen science water-testing programme launched in 2022 that exposed the terrible scale of sewage pollution in our coastal waters.
Using a simple UN approved testing kit our testing showed that EColi levels were so high that there was frequently a threat to human health.
Better regulation of AirBnBs
Tackling the Impact of Holiday Lets on Our Communities
Often, more than 1000 homes in Whitstable and Herne Bay are advertised as available on the holiday-let website Airbnb. The rapid growth of Airbnbs and holiday lets is causing widespread public concern. The Green Party held public meetings and ran a public survey to gauge local opinion.
