‘We are a completely different political party’: inside the Greens’ membership boom
AI Summary
The Green Party in England and Wales has experienced a rapid membership surge, more than tripling from 66,000 to 215,000 since September. This growth has provided the party with increased resources for campaigning, as seen in the recent Gorton and Denton byelection. However, the influx of new members, many from Labour, has also brought cultural shifts and concerns about factionalism. Some worry about a potential "takeover" by new members with different priorities, while others believe the party's decentralized structure will prevent this. The party is adapting to this growth and navigating the challenges of integrating a large number of new members.
