"Our political leaders, in the run up to the last election clashed and
argued over many issues - all of those issues entirely predictable and
all part of the pitiful cut and thrust of capitalism. One subject
which all of the three leaders agreed on, however, was the need to
return to growth. Economic growth comes at a cost and is a necessary
requirement for the successful running of capitalism.
Glenn Morris hopes to illustrate through personal observations and
experiences how society's love affair with economic growth is entirely
incompatible with the well being of people and the environment".

As a managing director of a business himself Glenn has seen first hand
the problems that arise when the profit motive clashes with employee
and environmental welfare.

Glenn is a highly experienced mountaineer and his previous expeditions
include the world’s first unsupported crossing of Spitzbergen and the
first British crossing of Greenland taking the route used by the great
Norwegian explorer, Fridjtof Nansen. He has also canoed the full
length of Canada’s longest river, the Mackenzie. Glenn is a Fellow of
the Royal Geographical Society and a member of the Climbers’ Club and
Arctic Club.

He joined the Socialist Party in January.
