Britain's major political parties are so scared of an alternative that they won't even let the left-wing, anti-austerity Green Party into televised debates. If the Greens aren't allowed into the TV election debates, there should be a compromise, such as its MP, Caroline Lucas, being allowed to present an episode of *Top Gear*. She could zip through the Lake District, saying: “But while it *handles* like a *dream*, the new Alfa Romeo 2.3 litre XL Deluxe has just one problem. It's an *unbelievably*inefficient way to use energy compared to a reasonably priced re-nationalised rail network.” https://www.greenleft.org.au/node/57917 -- “Disobedience, in the eyes of anyone who has read history, is humanity’s original virtue. It is through disobedience that progress has been made, through disobedience and through rebellion.” — Oscar Wilde, Soul of Man Under Socialism “The free market is perfectly natural... do you think I am some kind of dummy?” — Jarvis Cocker _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
