But you don't agree. The Spectator is right wing. Excellent stuff from the Greens. I'm pretty happy with the current rights of parliamentarians. I'm generally not up for politicians being put on trial for their voting records. Unless all of them agree to it, including when the boot is on the other foot. In which case they can knock themselves out. You would do well to actually read his thread - in which he explains what he thinks should happen, to whom it should happen, and what may come about if it doesn't happen. |

"Climate Nuremberg". Completely normal stuff. The wanky veiled threat to the Speccie was quite amusing. Any money that he likes to use the phrase "evidence-based policies" a lot. Including in daily life. #BeKind |

Whatever the rights or wrongs of prosecutions for environmental/climate damage, comparisons to the Nazis are almost always crass, insensitive, ill-advised and completely undermine any point being made. So, in general I think he's being a bit of a numpty...

So, in general I think he's being a bit of a numpty... In the rather long thread, he makes no comparison to the Nazis or the Nuremburg trials. That said he doesn't seem to deny the accusation of doing so in the hustings. |

I hope the utterances of some of these loonier Green candidates are getting a good airing in Herefordshire and Norfolk (along with all their anti-car fanaticism etc)

I shouldn't have to explain that |
