I really can't decide whether the green party are the world’s greatest optimists or stark raving mad. As when you listen to them they really think they are going to win loads of seats. Same with UKIP, can you imagine if this scenario happened that the Greens, UKIP and the SNP won enough seats to form a coalition government on their own……………..

I had a green candidate complement me on my landie. He said "it's nice to see a land rover with a winch on the front". I was quite surprised.

I don't know much about politics at all - but it's seems the greens at least seem to be genuine people ? By that I mean having an agenda beyond their own interests.

I've been involved with a biomass manufacturing company (very important in reducing carbon emissions) since it started 2 years ago so I've learnt a lot about environmental policy and financial stuff surrounding it. Put simply you cannot have a environmentally sustainable carbon neutral country without a sustainable economy. All of the left parties including labour don't have an economic plan that is sustainable. So the green party is bad for the environment in my view Mr. Green

So the economy is then to starve people and cut child benefit to keep the rich in their mansions.... That's blue philosophy.
The IFS have already stated that labour did not cause the financial crash in 2008 as a guaranteed fact. And 0.3 % is not an economic plan but a sham.
Nor were they elected but used the Libs to get in there.

There is also the fact the UK has been ordered to clean up on emissions and the UN looking into breaches of human rights.
2% growth at least people were promised by now, what is there 0.3% downgraded from 0.6%.

Then immigration, "I'll get immigration down to tens of thousands by the end of parliament (now) no ifs no buts."
"If we don't I'll resign or vote us out"

It now stands at 300,000.

I've made my points clear and thus will be commenting no further on this subject.
This country is too full of Selfservatude and corruption.

We even had a criminal. (Andy Coulson) in parliament remember.

If you can't afford to have kids then maybe you shouldn't have them - asking the rest of us to pay for you to have them is not the way to go.

not "in parliament", he was the government's director of communications. Completely different to an elected MP.
