I don’t understand why the greens in Scotland don’t just get on with the green stuff

Patrick harvie and Lorna slater of the greens in Scotland are just the same

@WarriorN

Can I check, were the results of the consultations published?
They published 'independent analysis' of the consultations but it all seemed to have been carefully curated. Will see if I can find it ...

@nauticant

You won't be surprised to hear that Maggie Chapman, Green MSP, was as coherent on the Today programme as the reply tweets the EHRC attracted on twitter.
This Maggie Chapman?

She's a great asset to the gc cause.

This is excellent news. I hope the Women and Equalities Select Committee are paying attention.

@WarriorN

Justin is on fire!
It was Nick Robinson today I think. He gets it. Good, robust questioning.

The Scottish Greens woman doesn’t care and is either uninformed or wilfully blind.

Sorry yes, Nick.

It's not Justin, it's Nick Robinson

KittenKong · 27/01/2022 08:54

She seemed absolutely unprepared to address any questioning. How can people take her seriously?

BringMeTea · 27/01/2022 08:53

Justin was marvellous. Her, ranting liar.

KittenKong · 27/01/2022 08:46

She sounded quite unhinged and very unprepared. I guess they are used to having no one question them or actually thinking through their chants.

That’s what happens when you politic by yoof.

Tabbycat80 · 27/01/2022 08:42

Justin was great. Really not putting up with her clueless inability to properly tackle his questions. There was a time when I voted Green but they've really blown it.

‘Many of the critics are Transphobs’ she says. Trauma and suffering of trans people?

That’s Maggie Chapman of the Scottish greens everyone.

Remember when the greens were science based, save the planet types?

"Opportunities for Those concerns to be well aired"

They're not allowing this to be aired so why the fuss?

She is very very upset. Bless.

"Due process"

Has it gone through due process?

Try to reassure… not just plough on…

She is full of c*. The reforms proposed don’t affect the equality act? She hasn’t a clue…

I just wonder if Sturgeon is using this to push at UK law. If she is successful with GRA reform, then she will have a go at other legislation. She is known for pushing at anything to separate Scotland

KittenKong · 27/01/2022 08:36

‘To hell with you’ - yup he has mailed it! C’mon… mention the womens groups they just haven’t even bothered to engage with.
