Or it’s quite possible that his supporters completely switch off when they see actual criticisms of his policies and/or don’t follow accounts online that are critical?
Just like Farage, it’s very easy to do when you’re representing the fringe and you’re not a serious person.
There are some fair points here and to be fair to you the Greens need to do more to explain the specifics of their polices.
I actively want to discuss them, what I’ve found is that Green Party voters don’t generally. They just want to call anyone who challenges their ideas names. I also don’t see a fierce defence of policies being put out anywhere. We’ve seen wishy washy support around how Polanski “has a big heart” and that he’s a good man, but tell me why his policies are actually going to improve the lives of the ordinary people in this country (not you, his supporters generally).
One went on tele and said that the Manchester Arena bomb happened because the right are diving people, another has gone on record and has said that she wants all prisons closed down, another has had his messages screen shot and pour out there saying ‘DEATH TO ENGLAND’, the party’s tone is that of ‘we don’t care how many rapists or knife wielding cunts we let into the country so long as it pisses the right off’.
Not completely true really, I see a post added and have a look and its normally something abouts tits or teeth or a misrepresentation of what was said.
Firstly, Hannah Spencer didn't say that about the Arena bomber - that was twisted by the likes of Goodwin and other idiots into claiming that's what she meant, and she's since clarified this.
The thing is, targeting his teeth or his history of tit-whispering takes away from criticism of their policies, which there is ample examples to go at.
They have specifically said they want open borders but it’s not yet practical, that’s on their policy document.
Spencer’s words weren’t twisted. She quite literally said in response to ‘why are these things [things like the Manchester terrier attack] happening?’, ‘because people like you are dividing people’.
So you don't want to hear about long term ideals, so? Just judge them on a manifesto for the here and now.
If you’d read on, you’d see I didn’t miss that bit.
I prefer actual deliverable policies that have a timeline and aren’t absolutely absurd straight off the bat. At least when we’re getting led up the garden path by other parties that have been in power, they pretend like they’re going to implement sensible policies and then don’t, it’s unusual to advertise policies that aren’t in reality to begin with.
Parties don’t tend to put policy out there until much later in the electoral cycle sadly, for fear of stuff being pinched (or in some cases because they actively don’t know!) I’m not a green supporter by the way. I don’t have an allegiance to any particular party. Locally I tend to focus on the candidate I associate with and their track record in public service
So you agree he tried to twist it.
So you agree other parties lead people up the garden but you see that as at least some sort of positive? Erm........
