Green MP Caroline Lucas contacted us in support of our campaign for owners. The member for Brighton Pavilion said: “I very much support your aims” upon receiving a copy of the presentation we gave to Parliament in October.
Ms Lucas said that although her current commitments as the sole Green MP means she is unable to pledge to join our All Party Parliamentary Group now, it is something she would re-consider after the election.
We also hope to take advantage of Caroline’s offer to meet and discuss our work further after May 7th, particularly in light of the Green Party’s recent announcement to support a cut in VAT on repairs and renovations to 5%.
There are 635 listed buildings in the Brighton Pavilion constituency.
