Green Party and Mayor/London elections


Inthepink

Recommended Posts

Your small but perfectly formed local Green Party urgently needs extra help in delivering Green Party info to houses in East Dulwich. This is to campaign for Green candidates for the forthcoming London elections on the 3rd May. We are doing an all day leaflet drop on Sat 24th March, and would really appreciate your help. Just turn up at Green and Blue any time after 10am. You only need to volunteer for a couple of hours. Call Tom on 07866 447 075 or see [southwark.greenparty.org.uk]

Please make sure that you observe notices on doors that say No junk Mail as I consider the deluge of political information I get through my door as junk mail and it gets binned so be Really green and save it from going straight into the recycling box where their is a no junk mail notice on the door (and this is a plea to all parties not just the green party)

Genuinely intrigued by this. What damage do you think the others are going to do?

More fool him he is a multi millionaire peddling his worthless drivel - indeed me and a mate paid ?30 each for his mega 7 hour show at the Brixton Academy 3 years agp - 2000 acolytes cheering him and his Powerpoint to the rafters - that 60k box office for a day's work and he takes this all over the world - like I say he earns millions every year. It's interesting seeing a new religion being born - they're all started by madmen and wise fools.

Ken is a complete loose cannon now (and I say that as someone who voted for him in two elections). He's gone from suggesting things that are good for London and is now back to is 70's ideological self. Another term from Ken would be just terrible for London. His fare cut would be extraordinarily damaging to TFL budgets and he'll go pursuing his ?25 congestion charge rate. His housing policy is doo-lally and his pledge to have a London EMA is a complete waste of money.


Jenny Jones, as far as I can see, put the 'mental' in 'environmental'. Whereas Caroline Lucas is new Green - pragmatic but principled - Jones is the green of old: Monster Raving Loony Party stylee policies with an environmental slant. Fortunately she is really quite unelectable - she's polling lower than the UKIP candidate at the moment. Let's face it - if she really cared for the environment she wouldn't be printing off and distributing thousands and thousands and thousands of leaflets in a futile cause. That's pretty much the definition of a waste of the Earth's resources.


Brian Paddick? Actually, he'd be OK, but I have more chance of being elected than he does. And I'm not on the ballot.


If there are any other candidates then, like most people, I am completely unaware of their existence.


And Boris? Like the previous four years he'll do something close to completely nothing. Which is the safe option.

    • There are genuine risks for engineers working on cell towers, I believe, but the microwave effects attenuate very swiftly with distance meaning that those consumers, and residents, served by the towers are effectively risk free. The worst impact is aesthetic rather than medical, and the communications and computing etc. benefits offered by 5G tend to mitigate these for most people who have and use mobile telephony. Considering what else is out there in our built environment I personally don't think aesthetic objections trump the utility of better communications infrastructure. 
    • I think the concern is the mast being so close to a school as well?
    • There is a planning application to put a mobile phone mast at the top of Dog Kennel Hill.  Residents of Camberwell Grove and their friends in the Camberwell Society are fighting it - defacing their nice conservation area with ugly laminated posters!  They do not benefit from it as reception is fine on their side of the hill. https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=makeComment&keyVal=S9IKT2KBN1200 I do not think there are any health hazards from being near phone masts (or at least they are negligible relative to everyday risks we all face).  Anyway, here is what the NHS has to say about them: https://111.wales.nhs.uk/encyclopaedia/m/article/mobilephonesafety/#Risks I imagine this will spark some lively debate!
