RT by @CarolineLucas: I live in Bristol Central which @ElectCalculus poll ⏬️ indicates may return our first @TheGreenParty MP Carla Denyer

My politically independent observations

Vote Green signs are in houses all around
@carla_denyer is known & popular locally
Greens hold 34 of 70 council seats in Bristol
Greens won all 14 council seats in the constituency just weeks ago
Experienced Green councillors in my ward really are excellent & engaged
Greens are fighting hard

Bristol Central is a new and unusual constituency (& an ace place to live!)...

We still poll as one of highest REMAIN votes
With one of lowest age range (I'm an oldie here👍🏼)
High level of young graduates (students love to stay living in Bristol...it's pretty beautiful AND chilled)
Even local Tories hate the Tories, and will probably switch to Green not Labour
A Bristol Central "spirit" is generally "rebellious" (suits me down to the ground...ha)

It's one to watch on July 4th
This post is not taking political sides btw

I wish the race wasn't between two great women with strong political voices, but it is
