What makes you think that Greens aren't pro-labor?

Well, the vote by Green Natalie Johnson-Lee against requiring city contractors to provide equal benefits to all their workers for one thing. As a union member and a gay man, that sure gave me a clue as to what Greens really think of both workers & gay people.

I've heard it said that the Green Party Platform supports both labor & equal rights for gay people; now we see how much (or rather how little) that means in practice. Apparently Green politicians, once in office, are just as likely as any old-time political hack to ignore the platform they espoused when campaigning.
