    so compromise is fine for coalition parties, its not fine for labour to compromise with what the electorate will accept, exactly the same reasoning as the scottish greens are doing by not quitting that coalition. its funny how the people who advocate compromise only compromise in their own favour.

    Same as the Tories don't want to follow through to actually do it

    being an old disabled git, I've been impressed with and appreciate the efforts that have been made over the last few decades to make the world accessible tho people who use wheels, part of why I've been impressed is because my locality is well-served by drop kerbs on pavements(there's not many houses round here with driveways, so if there's no drop kerb I'm generally stuffed). today i went off the beaten track to the other side of the city where i rarely go and discovered I'm lucky around here because there's many less drop kerbs in other areas. at one pint i had to get two workmen to lift my scooter onto the kerb, which they happily did, its always heartwarming how helpful people can be, i collared another poor sod earlier to help me get my waterproof out and help me put it on, i always try to make sure people know they've done a nice thing that's hugely appreciated (I'd much rather not have to ask), with my waterproof today i was mostly worried about it catching in the wheels and throttling me(which is why i needed to ask for help).

    It's a pretty crap explanation of anything when it's claiming the bnp as left wing. It's a tumour the bnp put about to try to make them less objectionable
  7. That scrap wood had had a whole new life beyond being a tree. No extra trees were felled by the burning of that scap wood, can't say the same about green party election leaflets.
  8. Haven't they stopped the piles of firewood?
  9. It's definitely not that because the wood was scrap wood. The real reason is because the wood smoke got trapped by conditions in the valley and caused bad air quality. And I think the festival felt that bad air and burning fires wasn't a great thing for a festival with a green ethos.

    If someone put words forward in that way surely they endorse them.

    with gerry adams more popular than the green leaders, should the greens take up terrorism to boost their profile?

    two leaders to be doubly less-popular. 😛
  15. i don't remember them ever selling wood, but a few shady geezers used to horde some of the old pallets the festival always had delivered and sold wood to punters.

    did they ask how popular the greens leader would be if the greens won, they couldn't cos no one knew who she is. because you' d rather the tories won? popular was thatcher, blair and boris, you can get popular if you want. slightly less sh*t would be the new greens leader compared to lucas. you know who to vote for there dont cha.

    Cost to NHS has maybe gone up cos women smokers will now be in the mix. Women tended not to habitually smoke until about (I'm guessing the era) 1960-ish
