At last some sense.


But not too much. The Green Party is little more than CND in disguise
and Charles Goodall's position as their propective parliamentary
candidate for Oxford West is now under threat.

So what? no one cares about what the lunatic fringe is doing unless it
actually impinges on mainstream policy.

The whole anti-nuclear power thing goes right back to CND when bearded
real ale swilling muesli eating earth mothers were unable to distinguish
between weapons grade plutonium and moderately enriched uranium, or a
bomb and a power station.

Ably assisted by their russian friends, who knew that the early power
stations were as much for breeding plutonium as generating power..


We've moved on a bit...

Anyway, a quick nuclear exchange between Tehran and Tel Aviv would solve
all the problems in the middle east.
