Again - according to the page I posted above, the Greens will do well to win one seat in the EM- so the only real candidate for them is the first on their list - the others (certainly from numbers 3 down) are to make up the numbers.
The more mainstream they become, the higher quality of candidate they will attract in the future.
99% sure I'm voting green later. 1% wants to vote LD. Generally a Labour voter (I've campaigned for them twice) up until now.
I'm not 100% as the Greens in my region (aside from the regional leader - Kat Boettge) really don't look like serious politicians (they look pretty much like you'd expect Greens to look I suppose). I know thats a ridiculous thing to say but they're hardly going to win over more centre right voters the way they are.
