These guys need to get a grip.
I used to be an environmentalist until the greens hijacked the idea. [ Open University 1971.OMG thats 40 years ago :-( ]
I thought Green Party was disbanded like PD…..
You’d hope
And……who cares, may I ask?
You cared enough to bother commenting… twice ;-)
Herp derp.
People are entitled to comment on a story in order to question its relevance, it doesn’t mean they are closet Green Party cheerleaders or anything.
Given the greens (and Sinn Feinn for that matter) views against fracking in Ireland I’m curious if people will be dumb enough to mindlessly support fracking just to spite the greens?
The will no doubt support any reduction in their fuel bills,something that the greens have never encouraged
@Charlie, yes I always comment when something pi****es me off. ;-)
I just wonder whether anyone who commented has any idea of the Green Party policies or principles (without googling them!) ?
have your say
