Defunding the police is not Green Party policy. At a panel last month Paul said police resources could be used more productively, and suggested other agencies and organisations were better placed to take on some of police’s functions.
I can only imagine there would be a transfer of funding to those organisations at the same time, surely?
The greens are so cooked. I hope to god they dont drag down labour. Right wingers constantly say “the greens and labour” even though labour has nothing to do with the scandal and opposes that green policy.
They have such bad optics with every age group except genz.
Realistically, a vote for Labour is a vote for a Labour-Green coalition, so it’s a viable concern.
And they just cannot stop fucking up. I think Labour is taking a step to the left and trying to take some of their support with policies like a CGT.
Don’t take the bait. What Tamatha said is so much more mild and considered than this. These ads are bad faith faux outrage
I know but I still disagree with her comments and policy/position on many issues. The greens are to far to the left of me which means they’re probably way to far left for vast majority of the country. What she is saying is dumb and if it hurts the greens thats good but if that spills over and hurts labour then thats terrible for the economic and social trajectory of the country.
To me, every party except labour is harmful to the country.
