Green government would let people join IS or Al Qaida

Barmy fuckers
People in Britain would legally be allowed to join terrorist groups such as Islamic State and Al-Qaida under the Green Party, its leader has confirmed.
Speaking on BBC's Daily Politics show, Natalie Bennett said that people should be free to think what they want, though warned that anyone inciting or committing acts of violence would feel the "full extent of the law".
"What we want to do is make sure we are not punishing people for what they think or what they believe," she said.
Bennett also spoke about plans to reduce the army - replacing it with a smaller home defence force.
She added that the Greens would progressively ease immigration controls.
"What we have to do is stop the race to the bottom on immigration rhetoric that we have been hearing, led by Ukip and sadly followed by the other [parties]," she said.

They have been polling highly, but that's mainly from just pushing Caroline Lucas and, to a lesser extent, Natalie Bennett. I can't imagine many people would be able to name other leading Greens.
C&BB - I am quite political and I don't know who Natalie Bennett is, never mind anyone else in the Green Party.

She's bonkers.
This comment though won't lose her votes just in the same way farage can get away with whatever he says too.
The people voting green will switch off.

Presumably it's the policy of the other parties that people SHOULDNT be able to join ISIS & Al Queda?
I look forward to the PM coming to Parliament to explain how he is doing in delivering that policy. And to apologise if he is failing

I will pledge support to the party that promises to ban everything in the name of freedom.

I'm tempted to vote The Greens this year, simply because the candidate for my constituency, has a lot of positive interest in our town

'and with that from the Greens, Labour is handed a nice little 2% boost '
More probably - unless the Lib Dems claw some back

Fuck me! I take back my previous comment about I might vote Green, despite them being a bunch of badly dressed middle class tree hippies.
She's lost the plot! And lost her party any hope of increased MPs.

"If it wasnt for the Green Party I would not be voting this time as I am sick of the bullshit that the other parties 'Promise' and NEVER deliver..."
Thank God for that as I'm not sure how the country would have survived otherwise.
I'm sure the Greens will deliver your every wish.

Just watched the interview & did listen to her answers & had to smile.
However, she's about as dangerous as Nicey.

>>> It's just the rest of the party that isn't winning much support.
I think they're polling higher than they have been for 25 years+.

Understand that Alex.
In general I wouldn't disagree with what you've stated in principle & particularly with your last sentence.
