danby's telling everyone who'll listen that the greens hate jews, which seems to be provoking caulfield/balaclava into asking what the actual facts are
― Autumn Almanac, Thursday, 9 June 2016 02:07 (eight years ago) link
in fact all i ever hear about danby is that he's vaguely pissed off about something or other, never that he's done a or b or c for the electorate

Yeah Danby is odd - my other half does some work for him (poster design) and its all this weird anti-Iran shit.

my local Labor member was recently bleating that a vote for liberal was a vote for the dismantling of capitalism, because they hadn't explicitly ruled out preference deals with Greens yet

he and other local once-admirable ALP members were on community radio this week saying it's unfair how the Greens only campaign & try to get members up in selected electorates, whereas Labor have to campaign across the whole of Australia
― glandular lansbury (sic), Thursday, 9 June 2016 05:21 (eight years ago) link
The ALP can go fuck itself. It has sold out so many of its once-values, and now it bleats about a party that's actually willing to NOT make some compromises for power. The whingeing torture/rape camp-enabling pricks can see the results of their lack of spine in their shrivelling support, but they still don't see how to stop it.

this exactly is the problem. i don't even know why the alp exists now. it cherry picks policy positions from the liberals, from the nationals, from the greens etc., and then it moans that the greens are interfering or whatever. if the alp hadn't abandoned its fucking base the greens wouldn't have scooped it up. and as far as the lnp goes, stop being pricks to foreigners in rickety boats and we'll stop accusing you of being like the lnp.
― Autumn Almanac, Thursday, 9 June 2016 05:57 (eight years ago) link
fuck.
stop actively promising to carry out almost all the policies of the LNP and we'll stop etc etc

can I just say: I have concerns about the Di Natale/Bandt-turtleneck Victorian hipster wing of the Greens (Di Natale did impress me and made me overlook the very odd way he took over as leader but recent developments have raised eyebrows) and the unreconstructed shouty stans of the NSW Greens
basically this isn't your dad's Bob Brown Greens and they should have gone with Ludlam as leader

Ludlam didn't want, nor believe himself to be qualified, to be Greens leader, and was not in contention.

having seen him on kitchen cabinet tonight i don't know how he'd cope with all the attention tbh
― Autumn Almanac, Thursday, 9 June 2016 11:07 (eight years ago) link
Do like lydlam a lit, and yes the greens arent perfect, but i go along with maybe 80% of their policies, and given that the environment and treatment of refugees are my main concerns, theyre the only party with anything useful or sensible to say

Ludlam, not lydlam, sorry, ipad fingers

the fact that he considered himself not worthy probably makes him more worthy, will have to have a look out on the Kitchen Cabinet appearance however
Larissa Waters would be good too
