About LinkBacksAre the Greens the first Irish political Party to give away a chance to go into Government for the sake of principle?
Is there any place for such highmindedness in Irish Politics?
Should the Greens now quit politics and become a lobby group instead?

What's the point of government if you can't implement anything that might possibly piss off a FF vested interest (i.e. just about every single Green policy)? Like a lot of people on this site, you don't understand the Greens very well do you.
Fair play to ye Gombeen.. if ye'd only develop a pair of cojones on the 6 counties, I might vote for ye myself
(Ps.. I've gave Bernie a very high preference.. or should that be a low preference.. low number, you know what I mean)
1,197 people agree with me.. how many agree with you ?
RoC the greens are in the north already, waiting...

I dunno about that. We support the status quo for as long as the majority of people in the North want it to remain thus. Sound familiar?Originally Posted by rockofcashel

In fact aren't the greens and Sf quite similar? They both want to shake the establishment up a bit. If the greens become a bit more republican, and SF a bit more environmentalist, you could have a very interesting party. The richest and the poorest of the electorate would be united.
But yes, what a breath of fresh air and inspiration the greens are and i mean that. It's about time we started talking about making hard policy decisions in this country instead of whoring and compromising ourselves for the sake of power. The greens are a party of the utmost integrity.
It reminds of the way the PDs use to be. What a pity they were corrupted. Only natural i suppose.

I used to have a lot of time for the PDs too (as I think a lot of people used to). But that was a long time ago. I miss Dessie.

Remember that it is a little wrong for a party with a small percentage of the vote to control a govt with a party with 41% of the vote, who has the mandate?? And yes, the PDs did it and I think it was completely wrong. And I agree with the Greens on co-location.
This kind of talk would give a lot of folks out there an orjasm, Father.
Are the greens really a party of only the rich, though?
