MEMBERS are quitting the Greens in protest against its Remain election pact with the Lib Dems, an eco-socialist group within the party claimed yesterday.

Green Left objects to the deal, announced last Thursday, between the Green Party, the Liberal Democrats and Plaid Cymru, in which the parties have agreed not to stand candidates against each other in 60 seats to avoid splitting the Remain vote.

“We’ve taken a stand because we reject the alliance made between the Green Party and the Lib Dems,” Green Left chairman Malcolm Bailey told the Star.
