'knitted their own yogurt' - I'm still laughing at this, Francis!

Can't we force political parties to have standards? The Electoral Commission disallowed an Islamic party and that is exactly what the Green Party is now. There must be standards that all parties adhere to or they can't put candidates forward. Yes, that probably means no more candidates dressed as a superhero or the Black Knight from The Holy Grail, but priorities!

Is "knitting one's own yoghurt" a quote from the comissar of comedy Alexei Sayle?

You should see them iver here in Ireland. Although, one bright spot was when our local Green Candidate tried to lecture the locals on their "white privilege" and her social media deedygot swamped with pictures of barefooted kids carrying water buckets and digging peat and other "privileged" things that were common in Ireland (not her class of Ireland of course) until surprisingly recently.

Curious as an outsider, does a Green vote liberate Palestine?

Best line: …one half wants to ban fossil fuels and the other half prays towards a country entirely funded by them.

Excellent, Mr Foster, and I have finally decided to commit myself to your cause - £38/year is pretty good value... I advise everybody else to do the same!

Hilarious but true - I have a pair of lefty mates who've made exactly the journey you've described: huge fans of Labour under Corbyn, alienated by the Starmeroids and the Jezzobollah Party's nonsense infighting, they've washed up on the shores of the Green Party, and aren't just offering their votes to that benighted crew, but go out stumping for them on the election trail.

I love them dearly, so I keep my gob shut on the topic, but it doesn't 'arf make for some interesting conversations occasionally, when politics does actually manage to rear its ugly head as I explore a thousand different ways of being non-commital in a heroic effort to keep a friendship going...
