WHERE ARE THE REAL 'GREENS'???

New Tory logo, 'green' taxes, wind turbines, carbon footprints... it is clear 'green politics' has jumped up the list of priorities for the middle classes, champagne socialists and students in recent months. At the same time, I've been finding it strange that the Green Partny has been no-where to be seen or heard.

You'd think new fertile political ground for a 'green' party! Earlier today it became clear why they've been so useless when I read on the bbc website some comments by 'this guy' in the Green Party who said that the Greens should not be "sucked in" to having a figurehead. Apparently to stay 'distinctive' they'll be having principal speakers. Good strategy!!!! Now what was that guy called again? If it only it was distinctive.

Hey Sam!

What's up? I like your blog. Check out mine, though I have not written anything for ages. I've been too busy really!

I might come to Manchester some time soon as I desperately need to go somewhere else for the weekend to write instead of my room!

<3
Fleur!

Hey Fleur,

I'll check yours out. If you come up to Manchester then let me know... it would be fantastic to see you. Also you'd be very welcome to use my house if you needed somewhere to stay.

Not sure if ive been in contact since going to Amsterdam... it was amazing, such a great city :-)
