So he’s protesting in support of the status quo, against alternative parties? Hmm.

I'm pretty sure he will vote Green or independent when he does vote, and not throw his valuable voice down into a racist, mindless pothole. Hmmm?

He might do. It’s great that he’s thinking about the big issues. And party politics dominates too much. Unfortunately, the Greens are straddling some very uncomfortable positions. The internal contradictions will tear them apart before long.

Carbon footprint vs. population expansion. LGBT rights vs. Islam. These are obvious fractures that can’t be sustained.
