Why the Green Party is shit

Sorry, but I took this as passive-aggressiveness 'blame':

I couldn't be passive aggressive if I tried. I was tired after a longish day on only 5 hours' sleep, and feeling sorry for myself after a long session's posting, feeling I was getting nowhere, and when I saw your post it was like the air going out of a balloon. It was a simple as that.

Have to admit you have a point.

I'm not really convinced you have one though. Here's a hint - a thread entitled 'why the green party is shit' will probably focus more on the negative side of the Green Party. If you wanted to talk about the positives you'd go and start a 'why the Green Party is great' thread. I'd be very surprised if it ended up being more than a 10th of the length of this one. That's how you get your much loved balance (though anyone who subscribes to anything like a decent set of political principles realises there are some subjects on which balance is not required, but you're beyond help on that one since you seriously think we should take the concerns of out and out fascists on board). In fact, that's precisely what I Lib Dem sympathiser did in response to their shit thread - so although they're a bunch of Quisling cunts they can at least take criticism without going off on a mad meltdown (meltdownpot lol).

If, on the other hand, you just wanted to ruin this thread and censor criticism of the Green Party you'd be better off whining about how everyone's being nasty to these nice wooly greens, conflating criticism with the Green Party with a dismissal of environmental concerns and just generally playing the victim.

With this taken in mind, I think the motives behind your intervention on this thread are perfectly clear Mr free speech for fascists but not for people who don't like the Green Party.
 
As has happened before on this board, I'm caught between a rock and a hard place here. If I answer the personal comments in Spiney's post (meltdownpot was quite amusing though), Butch and maybe others will say I'm talking about myself again, but if I don't, the same people will think I've got no answer to said comments.

It seems I can't win - and if I say that, I get accused of whining. Grrrr!

I'm actually trying to be conciliatory at the moment (which is why I edited out my initial response to barney pig's insult on the last page). It seems that you, and others here, just don't want me to be though.

As for the "Green party is shit" thread, I have to admit I still don't particularly like the idea of a thread with only negative comments about the Greens but I've had my say now and calmed down enough that I think we should agree to differ.

But please, everybody, let it drop. If you want to post negative stuff about the Greens, go ahead and do it and don't mention me at all for the rest of the thread (and I'd prefer it if no one replied to this post).
 
enough with the whining please, you're quite happy to take offence when people complain you're mates with scum, you defend scum, scum who would like to see me and everyone on this board dead, yet somehow when it's the green party being attacked it's like a personal slight against you and you try and stop everyone else talking about it. I thought you supported free speech, attacking the green party is free speech, get over it.

I thought you'd fucked off for a while Meltpot - why don't you keep that promise?

Because other people keep wanting to have the last word at my expense, as you did with that comment about me "going back to Stormfront" (as if I belonged there) and barney pig calling me a "lying twat" (which you liked).

Other people read those comments, so I feel I have to answer them, just as I imagine you would. It's that simple. If you want me to go from here, leave me in peace and it'll be a lot easier.
 
If he who does not wish to be named again on this thread is serious about his engagement with this thread being over that's fair enough as far as I'm concerned (though the apparent desperation to have the last word leaves me unconvinced).

So let's get back to what is clearly the most urgent and pressing task for all right minded people: giving as many examples as possible to back up the assertion that the Green Party is shit. (Although I think the evidence already presented is enough to turn assertion into fact you can never have too much dirt on your enemies).

No, just leave it. Simple.

It may be simple, but you seem to be finding it pretty bloody difficult.

Maybe it's time to reel off a load of vaguely connected puns to get the thread back on track. Shall I start?

Green with envy...

Environmentally sensitive...
 
"We have made significant progress over recent days. The proposal significantly reduces or in some cases eliminates the losses for individual staff members which arose under the previous offer, although there are still some areas that must be addressed.

"For their part, the council have committed to confirm to each staff member how the revised proposal will affect them on an individual basis. When this detailed information is received we will then conduct a postal ballot of our members to ask them whether they accept or reject the changes.

"In the interim I can confirm that we have suspended our industrial action, for a period of 28 days, to allow this process to take place."

Everyone gets a letter telling them what they already know and the union keeps it goodwill with the council. Fight the cuts.

Are they trying to split the strike by letting management tell staff on an individual level that they're not affected in the hopes that those people will vote those who are affected out of a job/worse conditions or am I being a little bit too cynical here?

That's what they're doing with the union helping them to do.

I haven't sent you any pms for over a year now. What are you talking about?

I had a rant just now and deleted it (understandable I thought, but still). Spanky saw it and responded to it.
