Re: Anyone thinking of voting Green?
Thats very romantic
But the old party you drool over had too many associations with the far left .....momentum being a prime example
This country will never elect a left wing labour party
So we have to be realistic and accept that the middle ground is going to achieve some of our goals
But old school labour won't achieve any goals at all because despite what you think .....its never going to be in power
It would be great if we had a more idealistic left leaning opposition but we havnt so it's best to forget that pipe dream and work with what we have
I think you are wasting your time yearning for something called socialism when a decent liberal government could achieve everything and more
The sooner the opposition merge the better although I am sure you will still be unhappy about it
