AIBU to ask those of you voting Green what the Green Party immigration plans would cost?

The ten points are worth seeing. They don’t look possible.

You are asking people to answer a question you know they can't because the figures are unavailable.
You're not asking them because you genuinely believe they are best placed to tell you. Very few people cast a vote in full knowledge of every detail of policy implementation. They vote for policies they think are a good idea and align with their values.
This is the reason why so many underprivileged people support Reform, they are voting for the idea of stopping the boats, not because they fully understand the consequences of a Reform government to their lives, how much it will cost and so on. The average member of the electorate is not an economist.
If you want figures that you can't find in the public domain, it's obvious the best place to ask is with the party themselves. You will then be able to inform us either that the costs are astronomical, the party could not answer, or in the event they do produce costings that dont support your wish to discredit them, not return at all.
If you're here to opine that Green voters are particularly naive and ill informed, or that the Greens immigration policy is too expensive, then for goodness sake, spit it out. There isn't any need to hide behind 'just asking a question'.

It doesn't really seem to make sense. Many green party candidates have shown themself to be racist, but then have policies which are pro immigration.

Really ,thanks , didn't know that existed..it will certainly help me as I've no idea who to vote for

@Quietasamouse3 when we get closer to a general election you can use 'vote for policies' or similar, websites that present you with a question and then a selection of policy extracts, you pick which you like and it tells you your preference at the end.

I thought everyone knew that the Greens are about feelings, not reality?

I don't know. Either a ghost town or a ghetto? You tell me. You seem to have an theory forming there somewhere. Care to enlighten me?

They are unlikely to be the largest party after the GE, but they could form a coalition with one or more of the other parties.

There needs to be something (maybe it exists and I've not found it)
Where you answer like 50 questions on your beliefs and expectations and policies you want in government,then it tells you which party to vote for according to what you ticked

Do we really,really ,think green have a chance of getting in to government next election..
But I've no idea who I'm voting for ,
We need a proper actual green party ..the current green party should be made to change their name , because there is very little green about them .
Plus the bloke is an arse ,

Has anyone released their manifesto costings for the next general election?

Yes and im sure the super rich would just let them!😂 all for the sake of living in the wonderful united kingdom!!😂

and when all the locals leave? Then what?

Is that their wording and choice of order @PinkMagpie or yours?

TBH I'm delighted that a mention of environmental issues scraped in there at all.

I'd be a Green voter if they actually prioritised environmental policies. Climate change is the single biggest threat to our future and none of the main parties give a shit. "Good old Nige" is bragging about doing away with carbon policies so we can all have cheaper fossil fuel.

I used to vote green ,when it actually was the green party
Now it's the party that puts what happens in other countries above what happens in UK .it's the party for open boarders and giving people who have been here 5 minutes a vote and a house and access to benefits,not to mention they think a woman' can have a penis.
God help us all if they get anywhere near power

And anyway, if the Greens wanted to somehow commander a million privately owned properties to ease the strain on housing for the 70 million people who already live here, they might be in with a chance of sorting out the housing crisis. Not in a way that is remotely workable in practice, but in theory at least.

However, the minute they allow unlimited numbers of immigrants to come in, any headway they may have made on housing will immediately be back to square one. The country is already looking like a third world shanty town in some parts of the UK. A year or two of the Greens and the whole fucking country will be one giant favela.

Aah, so all those chichi little cottages in Cornwall and the North Norfolk coast, where there are no jobs for the locals except those that exist purely to service the tourism market are going to be filled with people who otherwise couldn't afford to live in them. Including immigrants and their families.

And when the air bnb and second home market collapses and the holiday makers stop coming to those cute seaside towns because they are no longer delightful Burnham Market or Bude, and more like desperate Burnley or Blackpool on a bad day, and there aren't any holiday cottages to rent anyway, what are all those people going to do for work, in order that they can pay the rent on those cottages that are now available for them to live in?

There are over 1 million empty homes in the UK. The vast majority of these are second/temporary homes. That’s what causes the housing.

If AI doesn't know I don't know why you think posters on Mumsnet will be able to tell you.

What accommodation would that be then? Do you agree that we already have an acute housing shortage? How much more acute do you imagine it will be when half the developing world and their five kids each arrive?

I don't see the relevance of the question, given that immigration isn't a devolved power (so doesn't apply in Scottish Parliament/Senedd elections) and that elections in the rest of the UK are local council elections.

You're not going to get current manifestos until we're in the runup to an actual GE.
