Green candidate for Stalybridge & Hyde

Stalybridge & Hyde - Jenny Ross

Jenny Ross has been a leading light of the Manchester political scene since she made her first characteristically humour-laden speech against austerity at the annual May Day Rally 2012. Two years of solid activism followed, where she marched in support of the NHS, against the Bedroom Tax and threw herself into defending the UK against fracking on the front line at Barton Moss, culminating in her MC-ing the 2,000 strong anti-fracking rally in Manchester City Centre and the even bigger People's Climate March outside the Labour Party Conference.

She passionately believes in social and environmental justice, and knows that the Green Party are the only party offering policies to tackle the urgent dual problems of widening inequality and increasing environmental chaos. Her priorities are taking a stand against austerity and building a sustainable future where the economy is refocused on local communities and away from multi-national corporations.

She was honoured to be selected as the Green Party's Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for Stalybridge and Hyde, where she has lived for the past seven years, and where she has worked tirelessly against the development of hydraulic fracturing and coal bed methane extraction in the UK and Tameside – which came under license under the 14th Onshore and Offshore Round. Alongside campaigners from Friends of the Earth and Mossley Environmental Action Group she has lobbied Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council into taking into consideration the many negative health, economic and environmental affects of allowing the industry a foothold in the beautiful hills of Tameside.

She still works as a stand-up comedienne and writer – a career that began in her early twenties when she won the BBC New comedy Award – before branching out into TV presenting, scriptwriting, journalism and magazine editing. She lives in Mossley with her partner, son and dog.

Her views on testicular cancer are slightly more controvesial
