Ellie Chowns and Adrian Ramsay: The Green Party needs credible, experienced leadership

Just to be clear, the piece doesn't attribute the Greens' electoral success to Adrian Ramsay over Carla Denyer. It's an article about Adrian, not Carla - hence why I've dedicated a lot more words to him!

I'm not sure what about the below paragraph is 'aggressive', but I'm sure others can draw their own conclusions!

I've also not mentioned Molly Scott Cato in the piece because it's not an article about Molly Scott Cato and she has nothing to do with the central argument.

Slightly late to the party, but 2024 was a great year for new music. To my mind, these were the 10 best albums of the year.

2. English Teacher - This Could be Texas
3. Mumbles - In the Pocket of Big Sad
4. @thecure.com - Songs of a Lost World
