I never intended it to be a Green party propaganda machine although I do think the Green Party has useful things to say on these issues.<br /><br />You can see from my Declaration of Interests that my activities are not limited to the Green Party.Martin Francishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02194641151012303116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-48303061407890417312015-02-12T11:54:22.896+00:002015-02-12T11:54:22.896+00:00Have you noticed how you get far more comments whe...Have you noticed how you get far more comments when you write posts that aren't about the Green Party?

If members of the Labour Party needed ...Great news. If members of the Labour Party needed any further evidence that Labour is not Labour anymore, and merely red tories then this should be it. An interesting contrast is Green's selection of Peter Pinkey with Brent Labour selection of Vincent Lo for the Kenton By-election. <br /><br />Lo, is a former employee of PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) - a company infamous for promoting tax avoidance on an industrial level http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-31147276. <br /><br />Similarly, Lo also worked for Morgan Stanley - another company famed for tax avoidance. <br />https://richardosley.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/lo.pdf<br /><br />Meanwhile: <br />Cllr Butt et al repeatedly blame the coalition for 'cuts' yet on a local level they choose to implement it and at the constituency level the person they selected for PPC / MP, Barry Gardiner recently voted for more cuts. Now, they select a man Vincent Lo (who may be perfectly nice on an individual level), but has aided and abetted firms that have sought to not pay their fair share of tax. <br /><br />The people who voted for Labour, thinking they were the Labour of old deserve better. <br /><br />Scott Bartle<br />@mapesburygreenAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11213382729970778097noreply@blogger.com
