Dark ages
OPINION: Before we all let The Green Party have at it with their 'bold' emissions reduction plan, the Hound thought it wise to run the numbers through the old Casio.
This was all before the major meltdown in the Democracy NZ political movement last month, where five of its 10 selected candidates resigned en mass.
This included Waikato candidate Steven Cranston, who was the former ag emissions spokesman for Groundswell - before he jumped on the Democracy NZ crazy wagon.
Your old mate suggests that Groundswell should steer clear of having such a close association with a fringe political outfit like Democracy NZ or they are in danger of being labelled as associating political crazies and burning off much of the goodwill it has built up in rural NZ.
