Comment on UK heads for recession as pressure mounts on Sunak
echodot@feddit.uk 8 months agoThe greens will never get in under a first past the post system because they are a single issue party. The best that we can hope for is that they embarrass the incumbent government into adopting some green policies. Kind of how ukip embarrassed the Tories into adopting some right wing extremist policies, although they didn’t need a great deal of persuasion in that area.
One of the biggest problems the greens have though is that they’re very much about the end results, but they don’t seem all that clear on how we are going to get there. No one’s going to take them seriously unless they can come up with some sort of concrete plan.

Are the greens still against nuclear electricity generation?

Yes they still are on that train. That’s kind of what I mean they don’t have a single clue how to actually transition to NetZero. Obviously we need nuclear for base load but they don’t like it for some random reason but they don’t seem to be able to offer an alternative.
I think they would prefer it if the power grid just shut down.
