Speeches and keynotes
On behalf of the Global Greens, welcome to Liverpool. This is actually the first global Greens Congress we have held in the Northern Hemisphere.
Thank you for your warm welcome. After 30 years in Green politics, I cannot tell you how great it feels to be amongst such a dedicated group of Greens, of global citizens, representing the politics of hope, of unity and of love for humanity and the natural world.
I'm so happy to be here, among friends, in the global family of Greens.
Les verts mondiaux m’ont fait l’honneur de m’inviter à prendre la parole lors de cette cérémonie d’ouverture alors qu’il existe tant de talentueux écologistes d’Afrique et d’ailleurs. Je tiens à les en remercier en espérant être à la hauteur de la tâche qui m’a été confiée.
FI want to start by thanking all of you for making this Congress a great event. It has been a fantastic event and that is thanks to all of you. Thank you for your energy, discussions and engagement. There was a lot of work.
Green friends, on behalf of the Green Party of England and Wales, I'd like to thank you for coming to Liverpool and to the Global and European Greens Congress. Whether you travelled for two hours or for 20 to get here, it is each one of us who has made this Congress so successful.
