    Isn't that like saying aside from being torn limb from limb at the end there's a lot for nature lovers in walking up and petting a wild lion?

    The green party have the most incredibly stupid policies. I don't dislike the policies more than UKIP's but at least UKIP intend for their policies to be xenophobic and regressive.

    The only good thing about the Greens gathering more support is that hopefully it will further fragment the two party politic we've been stuck with for too long. Who knows in a few years we might get another chance to bring in PR/AV and it won't be sunk by the electorates hatred of 'turncloak Clegg' again.

    The greens say that you can't ban the supporters of terrorist organisation who want to overthrow the government and bring in sharia law just for thinking about it I say hear hear, so banning nuclear weapons nuclear energy and helping terrorist organisations is all good.

    The Tories and Labour are both perpetually unelectable as well and it never seems to stop them!

    The tories are the lesser of the other evils, and of course for some, labour are best choice for the same reason.

    Bet she has got more news and tv coverage as a result of this, than she ever otherwise would have
    If we had something like this with an up and coming politician from one of the main parties, with their very clever spin doctors behind the scenes, it would be very easy to believe it was engineered.

    Indeed, just look at the way the economy is outperforming virtually the whole of the rest of the world and everybody wants to come here !!!

    The SNP's plans to field candidates in English constituencies are still rather tentative I'm afraid.
