Yeah, so just going to every park has been such a challenge for me in the last three years.
I'm just being summoned all the time.
So your campaign focuses on the cost of living crisis, on high housing costs, on increasing bills and those left behind by politicians in power.
The question is, is why should voters believe that a Green MP is the person who can fix all of that?
How do you feel about the, I don't want to say criticism, but certainly the concern that there's going to be a split of the left vote in the area and that in the end reform will be let through?
I'm really glad you mentioned this because in all the stories that are swirling about you, there's been reports about a post on Mumsnet in 2021.
In it, you say you were glad you moved away from Levenshulme.
Have I said that right?
Levenshulme.
Levenshulme.
See, a real local, which is an area of the constituency.
You described it as blighted by a mile long row of supposedly money laundering takeaways.
People said, oh, that's you doing the area down.
I mean, what would you say to that?
I love the honesty.
And I think this is a sidebar, but I think in Britain, in general, we have a problem with talking about class and understanding it.
I'm not claiming that I'm an expert, not at all.
But, you know, I grew up and it says on my passport, born in Barking, also reflects my mental health, I would describe it as.
And Barking and Dagenham is regularly named as one of London's worst boroughs.
And if you're from those places, I think if you're being honest, you know what's happened.
