Green Bus?


Did anyone see a Green Bus in Sefton Park late yesterday afternoon? Well if you did it was the Green Party's Green Bus travelling the country to spread the good news!

It was red actually (photo to prove this) - a bit of a disappointment as a couple of people sunbathing in the Park mentioned. However one of their party was wearing a straw hat and as I was too he wanted to have his picture taken with me. After getting the promise of the ten people in the group to vote for Peter I gave in to their request. Does this count as buying votes?

More seriously looks like the BNP(7%) is catching up nationally. In the latest poll they're a couple of points behind the Greens(9%). So even more reason for voters to really think about voting tactically for the Greens as the remaining seat in the north west region is likely to be between them and us.

Re the canvassing last night at the Green bus event - reception all very positive with a couple of people saying they lived locally had voted Green before and would be doing so this Thursday.

Since I started leafleting a few weeks ago spoken to about 40 people with only two of them stating they'd be voting BNP. This poll very straw (hat) so still a lot to be fighting for and I really can't stand the idea of being represented by someone from the BNP.

Out in the Widnes area today and tomorrow. If anyone's interested give us a shout!!
