Green Party responds after Jeremy Corbyn’s new party receives more sign ups

Ellie Chowns defended the Green Party after LBC's Henry Riley pointed out that Jeremy Corbyn's newly formed party has had more sign ups that them

Chowns appeared to laugh saying, "Nobody’s had to pay them any money to sign-up."

Jeremy Corbyn and former Labour leader Zarah Sultana are reportedly “getting 500 people a minute” wanting to join their new political party.
