Clive Lord

Clive Richard Lord is a British political activist and long serving member of the Green Party of England and Wales.

Lord stood for the PEOPLE Party in the February 1974 general election in Leeds North East, winning 0.7% of the vote.

[1][2][3] Lord is a campaigner for basic income, writing in 1993 that: "I'm afraid I cannot retire from Green politics until the significance of the Basic Income is understood and taken for granted on all sides: it will enable us to emerge from recession without returning to indiscriminate economic growth that will destroy itself, and us with it.

"[4] In 2003, he published a book, A Citizens' Income: A Foundation for a Sustainable World, which outlined his personal philosophy and political beliefs.

[5][6] In June 2016, Lord announced his intentions to stand for Leader of the Green Party in the upcoming 2016 leadership election.
