Kieran Turner has been selected as the Green Party candidate for the Calder Ward by-election.
Kieran is a long-time community activist and is passionate about protecting and restoring the environment.
He will make a brilliant, hardworking councillor who will work closely with residents and local groups to make life better in the ward.
‘It’s clear to everyone that politics as usual isn’t working,’ said Kieran. ‘We need a new approach.
‘That’s why there is a surge in Greens being elected at all levels, bringing fresh accountability to politics. We can make this happen again in this by-election.’
The election was called following the resignation of Labour’s Josh Fenton-Glynn after he was elected MP in July.
The by-election will be held on 24 October 2024.
