*STATEMENT* 1/5 We were deeply concerned by comments made by co-leader @jon_bartley on BBC Radio 5 & BBC News NW stating that he would ban halal meat
They don't represent party policy & don't fit with the values of the party. His comments have offended many Muslims & non Muslims
2/5 We welcome @jon_bartley apology but are extremely disappointed that @TheGreenParty have chosen to remain silent & not make an official public statement about this despite our many requests.
We therefore for urge the party to release an official public statement ASAP.
