Have no idea what the harm is in being “an ex climate skeptic”, although in a politician it’s certainly worthy of suspicion..

Samiam - it’s a shame you can’t support the Greens seeing as you support green policy. Why not?

No other political party has a policy anywhere near green, because they are still on the unlimited growth train.

The only way to ensure a strong green voice, and a sustainability focus, is to Party Vote Green - so get off the fence already!

nick smth is anti coal, gerry brownless is pro coal (its sexy to him and please don’t ask in what way..), john key is an ex climate skeptic..

so hows that for inconsistant. no wonder they dont have policy. the bluegreens is more of a scam than solid energy ‘not using spies’ and their $50 000 snaill PR film.

national is as environmental as opencast mining and farming in by clearfelling in the amazon and then doing agri farming for soy.

national is mud grey not blue green.

Assuming National will get more votes than Labour this election makes it more imperative than ever for the Green party to engage with them in government. We need a government with a sustainability focus, whoever they may be.
You see I’m not a supporter of the Green Party, I am a supporter of green policy and, even better, green action.
If any party can come up with sound green policy I say good for them.
So Greens keep rolling out green policy, leave the red, blue, brown etc policies to the rest, and get those green policies on the cabinet table of the next government.

I guess their research unit must be looking for another way to say “no, we haven’t released our policy on that yet”, so that labour can’t add “broken record” to its campaign against “slippery” John Key.

I can’t seem to post regarding the free trade deal? I was going to say how much will this arrogant bunch of self serving hypocrites we call our government take into account? They are only giving 20 days to reduce even the amount of feedback they recieve - bastards!

Not surprised National just sent in an old speech. I looked on their website to see if I could find any environmental policy, all the “policy” links were to old speeches.

Their policy must be that the environment is something they talk about from time to time.
