Maybe he meant their policies or association to?
You're guaranteed with those fringe parties that they have at least one ludicrous policy like "no killing of crabs on a Thursday" or summat ;)



Still, I wouldn't really put BNP and Green in the same bracket really...




I put them together as parties that anybody with at least half a functioning brain cell wouldn't vote for. Admittedly, there is a difference in reasoning to get there. BNP being xenophobic scum who have no clue about anything surrounding the idea of immigration and Green being mental idealists who have pure intentions but live in a magical brony land inside their heads.

So, in summary, no matter who you vote for, we're all fucked.

Whilst they are a bit idealistic and not as legitimate in terms of policy as the Greens elsewhere in Europe, such as Germany, they are still a pretty valid party, and not really in the same class as the BNP, as far as I'm concerned anyway

I voted for the Green Party representative at the last local election and I don't consider myself a mental idealist or a brony (if anyone tries to accuse me of the latter, I will fucking decimate them).

I was lib-dem before the last general election though.

Ken Clarke is my MP. I voted Green because there was no Loony representative to waste it on.

I might vote Tory (shock horror) for the next local one because our current MP is actually really good. Been in contact with him and he actually replies to shit personally.

The Green Party have controlled the council in Brighton for years and it has been a massive success. So much so that their MP is from the Green Party so you can hardly right them off as "mental idealists"

Cheers. Luckily it isn't to the extent of your friend as I know a couple of people who have had their lifes ruled by it. I had to give up work when I was younger due to it though and rest before uni. At least this time I can rule it as I don't have a full time job/uni to keep carrying on with.

What made me happy again is both places I volunteer being so understanding and I can be open about my health. Plus, I was told by another person today at work that they think I'm great and it's only my 5th Thursday in there.

Shoot today went well, they said I was better than the other person they use so fingers crossed there might be more work involved for me.

Coffee and Pendulum. Listening to Pendulum is bringing back memories of hanging out with a group of friends a few years ago, getting stoned in a mouldy old garage and cruisin' round on weekends. The coffee reminds me of coffee, which is always good.

I swear that's exactly the environment in which Pendulum is listened to all over the country.
