[–] steeznson@lemmy.world -3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children) Like the guy but he leads the Greens FFS lol Edit: Left the comment first thing and realising now the phrasing is ambiguous. Should have read: "I like the guy but I'm skeptical he has never tried drugs given that he leads the Greens lol" permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Highstronaught@feddit.uk 7 points 5 months ago (1 child) If you like him, do you like the policys of the party? If you like both why not vote for them? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] steeznson@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago I was just implying that people in the Greens have a reputation for being assosicated with cannibis legalisation so I thought the headline was funny. My personal policies are actually the opposite of what will likely be on the Green manifesto however I like the man as a person, and respect him. To my eye he seems to have the X-factor that the public seem to engage with, backed up by a consistent set of beliefs and a vision. Depending on how strong his vision is, I might be tempted to vote for him regardless of my personal policy preferences because vision has been missing for a long time in UK politics. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 1 point 5 months ago That's right, britain will never have a non whig-tory party in power. Whoops, wrong century. That's right britail will never have a non Labour-conservative party in power. Ignore Reform UK being either opposition or government next elections. permalink fedilink source parent
