Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 June 2026

Debate

Cabinet Manual: Guidelines for Government Formation

Contribution

My Lords, I wonder if that is a bid for power, for engagement or for negotiation, but I have to say that, given some of the candidates, platforms and personal views of the Green Party, that would be a struggle. Having said that, we are many years away from a future general election, and I think it is fair to say that those of us who campaign regularly will continue to campaign month in, month out regardless of when a general election is called. However, there is a great deal of work to get on with before the next general election.
