Sarah Hanson-Young, the Green Hypocrite

Mainstream Australia is vastly overrated anyway.

As are the Greens - a mixture of blind idealists and self-interested opportunists.

What? As opposed to those in the Liberal and Labor parties

Good call, unfortunately another ridiculous post from Psyber.

See my reply at 10.43am - it's immediately above yours posted at 1.55pm, Gozu.
(I've amended the second sentence to make it harder to misunderstand.)

I reckon SHY spends a disproportionate amount of her time plotting how to overtake Adam Bandt in the race to knife Christine Milne and claim the leadership. Shades of how Don Chip's plucky Democrats self imploded over time.

[Gozu]

Because you'd know of course. The big difference between the Greens & Democrats is that the Greens are their own party, the Dems were born out of the Liberal Party. Factor in Labor's continued move to the Right over time in a disastrous attempt to be as right-wing as the Libs leaves the Dems with little relevance and conversely a boon for the Greens.

What I was pointing out is there is more room for new ones in the smaller party that will need candidates as they try for more seats.
So, the new generation of pure opportunists rush to join a party that has room for them to find easy positions and easy prominence.

I agree that SHY is quite juvenile in her actions at times and too often makes unfortunate statements. Greens would have learned their lesson I think and will no doubt be a bit more discerning with their preselections in future.

I heard SHY on 891 this morning - was actually quite impressive
I am now putting her No 1 on my vote card

I've met her and talked to her for a while. I wouldn't vote for her.

Would you ... um ... err ... pork her?

[Sky Pilot]

Not really, but I guess a few have.

[Psyber]

Would you ... um ... err ... pork her?

No! I'm not that desperate yet.

Psyber humour has always got that edge to it

[Sky Pilot]

What if you found out she could suck a golf ball up a metre of garden hose?

[dedja]

you're getting her mixed up with Bronwyn Bishop ...

[Sky Pilot]

Bronny is past that sort of thing

[dedja]

not if she takes her falsies out ...

[Sky Pilot]

Only Labor people have falseys D. Blue blood Libs have a gob full of implants

[dedja]

The Liberals have Bronny ... Labor have Kate Ellis
