It takes a fair level of stupidity to have racist views, so in educated people it would almost be impressive if it wasn't so common.

Love them. Yeah, they were somehwat naf (hell, We've Only Just Begun was even a song borrowed from a banking ad!) but Richard's arrangements were fantastic and Karen's voice was one of the smoothest, most luxurious, out there. Also a very talented drummer.

I went to @greenparty.org.uk conference - and unlike Labour, didn't get the boot.

But will the Greens succeed in convincing Labour voters - and what about the threat of Farage?
