The Green Party have done it again.

Expelled a woman for her 'gc' views.

Dr Pallavi Devulapalli

District Cllr, Airfield ward, KL&WNBC 2023- NHS GP Vice-Chair of Norfolk health overview scrutiny committee (HOSC) Trustee CPRE Norfolk Mum

'On Monday the 2nd of June 2025, I received an email from
@TheGreenParty
, advising I had been permanently expelled from the party. I am shocked and disappointed, coming as it does on the heels of the Supreme Court ruling clarifying what a woman is, and the Sullivan review...
'The initial suspension in September 2024 was for not quoting GPEW policy on Gender Self ID & ‘Transwomen are women, transmen are men’ policy at a hustings. I don’t agree with these policies, and it felt dishonest to quote them in front of my electorate
The suspension was meant to be temporary one, pending investigation. It dragged on for months, with no investigation to my knowledge; then a second suspension was issued, for attending a Christmas social get-together, and for mingling with GPEW members 'while suspended'.
The final email of expulsion stated that in order to protect the party, they had concluded that I needed to be permanently expelled. One person found it so difficult to decide if I was a danger to the party that they abstained from the vote. The vote was carried 9-8.
I find the entire process- from suspension to expulsion on such flimsy grounds, unjust, ludicrous and hurtful. I feel betrayed, angry & very disappointed at the callous manner in which I have been treated by an organisation that I gave so much of my time and energy to.
I have received many messages of support calling me 'excellent', 'respected', 'valued', 'brave', 'truthful', 'dedicated', 'brilliant' member and spokesperson. To expel me for a difference of opinion on party policy, is nothing short of scandalous in my opinion.
I will never stop trying to change the world for the better- whether its allowing children the space & freedom to grow without pressure from trans-lobbyists, or speaking up for women's rights or acting on biodiversity and climate change. I believe a better world is possible.'

Brave woman. Outrageous bullshit from the Greens, again.

Most of the replies to the Fox Killer are the usual venomous bile but there are some funny ones showing their colossal level of delusion - or determination to destroy the Green Party, not sure which:

"The thing is, as Labour haemorrhages votes for (amongst other things) their transgender hate, the Greens are our natural home. Left wing and libertarian. Attracted by wonderful women like Siân Berry. They know that if they throw us under the bus, they don’t get those votes."

"I can't believe the Green Party would conduct themselves in a manner calculated to win voters and political power, actually disgusting behaviour."

The Greens in Austria are on a comparable trip. After they decided to expel only the lesser known of two women for terfery, the other one (Faika El-Nagashi, a former MP) left the party this week:

I think with the Guardian a lot depends on who's writing the article. We know that some of their writers like Libby Brooks and Zoe Williams are fully signed up to the TRA cause and there's no hope. I haven't seen Matthew Weaver writing about this before so perhaps he's better at writing objectively.

"Green Party leadership is a run-off between left-wing Polanski & neolib Chowns/Ramsay. Ramsay recently refused to answer question during interview re: trans views; Polanski is vocal advocate. Some of 'old guard' in Greens unhappy with progressive economic & social views. Graun cannot abide the left."

I saw that comment. We all know that the Grauniad is a right-wing reactionary rag 😆

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/jun/17/green-party-purge-gender-critical-voices-expelled-former-spokesperson-pallavi-devulapalli

Bewilderingly, a good article in the Guardian:

'The Green party is veering away from its founding culture towards a more leftwing authoritarianism, its former health spokesperson has claimed.
Dr Pallavi Devulapalli said trans rights had become an obvious totem in the new climate, and accused the party of trying to purge anyone with gender-critical views.

Devulapalli, a GP and member of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk council, was expelled from the party for a rules breach that she has said was due to her beliefs on gender. Her expulsion this month, she said, has exposed a rift in the party’s leadership on transgender issues that threatens to widen during this summer’s leadership election.
The party’s current co-leader Adrian Ramsay, who has argued that members should not be thrown out for saying trans women are not women, is pressing internally for Devulapalli’s expulsion to be reviewed.'

Shocked by this. There wasn't even any pandering to the TRAs. It reads as good as a Daily Mail article on this issue haha

cariadlet · 18/06/2025 05:39

The article in the Guardian was a very pleasant surprise. It even includes a hyperlink to the Greens in Exile website.

There's also a good article by Jo Bartosch in The Critic
https://thecritic.co.uk/have-the-greens-gone-gaga/

Pallavi is Communications Director for Green Women's Declaration. It looks as though GWD have picked the right woman for the job.

It is a strange twist that the lunatics who have expelled Dr Devulapalli 'to protect the party' are likely destroying the party by their own actions

Yes, I cancelled my membership because of these issues and I know one family member and one friend who have also done so. No doubt many more have left the party or stopped voting for them.

It's weird,isn't it? From time to time, there's a few green shoots from the Guardian, and it's clear a few of their staff are not insane on this issue. But I think it's hard to see the editorial line changing under the current editor.

The greens in East Anglia are busy (checks) opposing wind farms and solar power because beautiful Sacred Countryside so I'm not surprised they'd be willing to make self sabotaging decisions. They're like the Lib Dems in 2010 circa I Agree With Nick in that everyone seems to like them and they effect a sort of moral high ground. They've not had to make any Difficult Decisions yet, nor work out which of their rainbow coalition (LGBTQ+, Woodcraft folk, repulsed lefties who are convinced Starmer is a nazi, Nimbys, disaffected Muslim voters BC Gaza) they'll have to let down.

Ellie is my MP.
She's totally TWAW.
I have emails from her in response to my emails, over several General Elections.

Yes, mine too. She repeats all the TRA mantras. I'm not sure whether she believes them or not; I suspect she would rather get on with tackling environmental issues. However, that does not necessarily mean that she would root it out of the Party if she is elected. I have voted for the Greens from time to time because they can be excellent on local issues. My worry is that we get a hung parliament at some point and then that puts the Greens in a very powerful position to demand batshittery. I think, on balance, I would rather they imploded now and then sensible Greens could always start a new party from the ashes.

HelenaWaiting · 10/06/2025 06:53

Still no study of the environmental cost of gender-affirming care. The standard Green response is "Oh, it is a fraction of the overall footprint of all healthcare". Not relevant, of course. When we start treating a carcinoma, for example, there is at the very least some chance of improved outcomes. Gender-affirming care is performed in the knowledge that it will always fail. The NHS and the government are negligent in their failure to acknowledge the cost to the environment and the taxpayer of treatments that cannot succeed in their stated aim.

Why would anyone GC still be involved/ want to be involved with the green party?

I really hope Adrian and Ellie become the new leaders. They’re the only hope for steering the party in a better more sane direction
