Following a vote of Green Party members, the South East Essex branch is delighted to announce the selection of our two candidates for the forthcoming General Election:
Tilly Hogrebe

On being selected, Tilly said:
“I am proud to be representing my home constituency of Southend West and Leigh as the Green Party candidate in the upcoming general election.
I firmly believe in building happy and healthy communities where residents find connection and a sense of belonging. I stand for protecting our environment and creating a healthy, liveable planet for generations to come. I strive for a world where all basic needs are met for everyone, while our use of resources remains within the planetary boundaries.”
Simon Cross
for Southend East & Rochford
On being selected, Simon said:
“I’m delighted to have the opportunity to again represent Southend East & Rochford as a Green candidate in the next General Election.
In 2015 and 2017 I offered the Green Party’s vision of a kinder, more equal, and more just society to the people of Southend East & Rochford, and I’m excited to be doing so again in this important General Election. ”
The South East Essex Green Party are excited to begin campaigning in both constituencies in the forthcoming General Election.

Please note this article has been edited. In earlier versions of this press release, it was announced that Eli London was selected as the Green Party’s prospective candidate for Rochford & Southend East constituency.
Eli has stepped down for personal reasons and we thank them for their considerable effort and dedication to the role. Veteran campaigner Simon Cross will be our candidate for the Southend East & Rochford constituency in the 2024 General Election.
