If the Green Party are so concerned about Waste and cutting down on Waste Paper..


.. Why are they bombarding us with so much Electorial Garbage... Far more than any other Party

with the possible exception of The Lib. Dems.


Very little from the Conservatives.. and Labour

'Mate' of mine is has been a green councilor, and stood for virtually every national election for the last few years. He is now campaigning for Brexit. Totally confused me as a major plus of the EU is on the environment.


But I think that Hitler was pro green, pro vegetarian and pro Jewish homeland. I am probably confused.


This doesn't really explain http://green-leaves.org/

I guess as they are a party on the periphery, and advertisement is essential for exposure. Think about how much paper is printed with Labour and Conservative details when put in the daily papers/metro/standard etc. Speculate to accumulate I suppose.

Recycled paper bought and printed locally is not necessarily any more wasteful of resources than digital communication. Consider the massive server farms around the world and all the infrastructure that entails ? it's been estimated that some 10% of the world's electricty goes on powering the digital economy. And then consider the resources and environmental costs of phones, tablets, PCs, shipping, cabling, marketing etc etc. In that light getting several thousand flyers printed up at your local print shop doesn't look quite so bad.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
