Quotes the IPCC..
The above information contradicts what you stated and seems to support Caroline Lucas's point of view. So does that make you "delusional"?

Honest, he did. More than once. Must be new to this...
Must miss Wikipedia when it's 'off' too!

I didnt see QT but usually these green MPs only call themselves green as its less offensive/has fewer negative connotations than 'communist'
Spot on.
s and have done with it.. Far too much pussy footing around IMHO
She's never going to lose her seat.. You should see the amount of 'Vote Green!' posters in peoples windows here in brighton.
I seriously regret not signing up to vote when she was up for election. I didn't think she was going to win, but I underestimated the stupidity of the people around me.
The green party have no redeeming qualities.. All their ideas are absolutely mental.

£15 minimum wage
That's the one that really got me.. Out of everything they suggest that's the most moronic by far. Instant hyperinflation.
It's like they have absolutely no knowledge of how the real world works and how their potty ideas would backfire horrendously.
I'm not even that angry at the green party, I'm angry that there's enough stupid people living around me to get her voted in!
I think the problem is that very few people understand basic economics, so the idea of everyone earning £15+ an hour is attractive as they don't think of where that money comes from.A chap I knew thought that was a great idea and suggested £20 an hour would be better because it gives people even more money to spend, I tried explaining how it would destroy the UK business sector but it didn't get through to him. They all think that money is gifted by the cash fairy

I think there should be a minimum age before you can apply to be an MP. I would suggest 40. At least by 40 you are more comfortable with who you are as a person and your political views, are more likely to have had a career, and are generally somewhat less driven purely by pure financial motives or unrealistic ideals. Obviously there are exceptions.
I think that there are no exceptions once they've worked out the scams. I think that Nobody should be allowed to go to university until they are 25, so that it means something to them and nobody should be allowed to live with their parents between aged 20 and 30, for more than 30 days in one year (although how you police that I've no idea).
Nobody should be allowed to be an MP under 50, or over 65 and the pay should be the same mean average of their declared income to the HMRC over the previous 20 years, with a max of twice the medium salary for a person of the same age, sex, maybe race, and possibly religion. That is if you are white middle class and male, and have been in a successful career, you'll have more than enough to live on (about £35K). And expences can be claimed for second class bus fare, and a mCd's. plus there will be a "halls of residence" in Tower hamlets, or somewhere equally nice.

Oh I dunno - it's good to know that all those folks who were selling the "Socialist Worker" on street corners
and heavily into hard left socialism many years ago got themselves
into eco-mania and Green issues when the Berlin Wall came
down and the basic fallacy of their position was shown.
Youngsters today, with the usual fire in their bellies
to change the world, campaign on Green issues. At one
time, they would have been marching to Aldermaston to ban
the Bomb or having an anti-Thatcher rally in London.

kill, execute, slay, exterminate, murder, do away with, put to death, liquidate, dispatch (or desptach, I'll accept either), take someone's life, finish off, put an end to, administer the coup de grace, eliminate, exterminate, extinguish, eradicate, destroy, massacre . . . And this is just a third of the synonyms in the smaller of my two thesaurus.
Anyone who turns nouns into verbs when there are perfectly adequate alternatives should be killed, exectured, slain, exterminated, murdered . . . .
They are worse than Greens. Or, indeed, greens.

selectively quoted as an utterly and terminally stupid idea.I guess you don't have kids then.
So my daughter, worked for three years saving up to go to uni. Gets made redundant as business she worked for closed. Gets nothing from state, no JSA as too much saved up ready to go to uni.
So in your scheme as a parent I'd have to say, NO you can't come and live with us for a few months until you've found your place for uni, you'll go and have to live in a flat somewhere and if you can't find a job you'll have to spend your savings until they are gone and then I suppose the state will have to give you some benefits and housing allowance as opposedto living at home for free warm and safe in our care and under our roof.
It's what proper and decent parents do through thick and thin for their kids you fking moron. tt!Gassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
