Greens: the Watermelon syndrome

I know it's all very trendy to recycle and catch the train and put shit rather than chemicals on your vegetables, but as people like The Devil have pointed out, there is a dangerous side to this green fanaticism.

Here is a prime example. About 12 minutes into this programme, the Leader of the Green Party and MEP for the South East, Caroline Lucas, responds to questioning from UKIP candidate David Campbell Bannerman, saying that flying a lot is the same as stabbing someone.

Honestly.

She also says, earlier in the programme, that we shouldn't build airports because it encourages people to leave the country to go on holiday, spending their hard earned government tokens abroad, and that is a bad thing.

The Greeniewatch website point out:

The modern environmental movement arose out of the wreckage of the New Left. They call themselves Green because they're too yellow to admit they're really Reds. So Lenin's birthday was chosen to be the date of Earth Day.


These people are standing in the Euro Elections where they will rejoin the group headed by Danny The Red. It doesn't just stop at recycling, they want to control how you live.

You have been warned.

UPDATE

The Mail have the story too.

I'll enjoy binge driving tomorrow in the knowledge that it is like poking Caroline Lucas in the eye with a sharp stick.
