Greens, the left wing Tea-Party.

Fortunately for all of us Paul1405, the greens are a self limiting mob. As you gain numbers you come under more scrutiny. This is your death knell. As reasonable thinking people become aware of the true policies, & the ratbagery included in the Greens, you are doomed.

I think it is all ready happening. Some saw it exposed by Brown in his last efforts, & your new lady is if anything, even worse than the red witch. This is not yet apparent to all, as most simply ignore her. Soon, if your vote increases, they will listen, understand, & run like hell from such a viscous type.

Belly, most Libs would much rather see a strong Labor government, implementing it's policies, than this useless mob, controlled by the greens that we now have. I would much rather see any real government, than this dreadful government by committee, particularly this committee, controlled by a small bunch who threaten to take their ball home if they dont get their way.

Mate this is your job. Get rid of your own garbage. The power at any cost mob you now have are legitimates. They are willing to settle for the trappings of power, while handing it to these ravers from the deep south, the greens.

I'm sorry to say I doubt your ability to get your party back from the academics & bleeding hearts, but if you don't, you are also doomed.

Arch conservatives think the whole voting world is populated by their own kind. I hate to shatter their delusion but that's not the case. There are actually thinking people who support Green policies.
These conservative types will tell you they represent the silent majority or some such clap trap, when in fact they only represent a tiny minority of vested interests.

All Greens can ever be is a thorn in the left side of Labor. Dreaming otherwise is a delusion of adequacy.

Paul,

Are you a student? I have seldom seen such naive stuff in my life:

"Arch conservatives think the whole voting world is populated by their own kind." Other than bad English, conservatives believe in small changes not the grand state driven social engineering experiments (that have failed miserably in Europe) of the "progressives". Many blue collar workers especially those towards the end of their careers need to protect what they have built up for their old age or children, and are no longer open to the "courageous" adventures of the left.

Your dream of doubling the greens vote in 5 years is just that.

SM I forgot to mention that conservatives also believe god created them as the class which was 'born to rule'.
The European problems at the moment were cause by the utter greed of capitalism, banks and other all sorts on a feeding frenzy.
Capitalism can only survive on war and division.
Thanks for the English lesson. No I am not a student, I would be a an old one if I was. Are you a YUPPIE?
