Irishman bouncing off walls
I just had a personal letter from Ed Millipede, following the one from David Cameroon. So what to do? Should I invite them both round for a cup of tea and start a bidding war?

I could get them to do some mud wrestling I suppose.
With Eric Pickles?
But that is green politics, the only thing I don't understand is their transport policy that is incoherent. They won't get in, so there is no need to 'balance the books' just publicise your policies.Green manifesto has been published (https://www.greenparty.org.uk/assets/files/manifesto/Green_Party_2015_General_Election_Manifesto.pdf)
"Our manifesto is a bold plan to create a more equal, more democratic society while doing our part to heal the planet, which has been severely damaged by the effects of an unstable, unsustainable economy."
Holding a green obsession eventually leads to fuel poverty for many. That doesn't sound very equal to me. Also, it makes me chuckle when Natalie Bennett uses the word "equality"--as she clearly supports discrimination tactics for women in the workplace.
"The austerity experiment has failed..."
Yes, let's just borrow loads of money, instead(!)--the Greens plan to borrow double the amount that the Coalition planned for.
Also, this manifesto clearly shows a hatred toward capitalism by vilifying businesses and wealthy individuals.

No one else worries about them, why are Kippers bothering with them?
If I read it correctly, they are raising the starting age of school children to 7; that'll save an absolute fortune (I don't agree with it btw) that should fund most other promises.[/QUOTE]So just because they won't "get in" (even though they have an MP) means that they are able to make uncosted promises?
I think you'll find that anyone who is really into politics will read and criticize other party manifestos, actually.
Did anyone see the leader's debate the other night? What do we think of the lack of comprehension of the principle of demand and supply by the socialist-type parties?
It looks to me like most of the parties are very uncomfortable on the immigration issue and use straw-man arguments like the NHS workforce. Clearly the housing issue is one of supply and demand, though increased demand isn't just about immigration, it's also about an increase in the number of people wanting to live alone.
I'm not comfortable with the prospect of an SNP tail wagging a Labour dog.
Well you can blame Westminster politicians for love-bombing & threatening us into staying. Since we're still in the Union we fully intend to make our voice heard.
