Lots of good, honest answers. My respect for Carla is growing.
She was cut off on two crucial questions, Climate change and Knife crime during the recent debate - the former she was mid rebuttal of Farage's nonsenical point and the latter she was cut off before she to got the underlying factor about Knife crime being poverty, inequality, lack of funding in youth centres and lack of opportunities in deprived areas (so she had to cut in at point and mention wealth inequality). That was extremely annoying, other than this and few nit picking details the moderator did a decent job considering the political climate.
I love her so much. I'm glad she's getting coverage. I deeply respect her as I am an animal biology student, and seeing someone who studied environmental protection go into politics after realising that's where the barrier was is great to see
Better late than never, the green party hardly got much air time previously.
They have some very good policies and have made some real progress with this over the last 5-10 years. Carla also has a very good approach to interviews and multi party debates. Some of the other leaders could learn a lot from her. If the Greens can win at least the 4 seats they're aiming for they'll be able to hold the new PM to account much better.
Voting green 💚 is a good choice for the many and not the few.
It's a hell in a handcart vote
Not for women.
@@FoxyFox999 if I still lived in the UK, HELL YEAH 👍🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴
Not sure why, hypothetically, this would seem like a party to not vote for? I get that theres no clear understanding of where this budget comes from but, if we say they could afford all this without ruining the economy, why would you not vote Green?
Tactical voting unfortunately is necessary in most of the UK...
@@joirnpettersen100% agree but to have hate towards the party, even if you're tactically voting, seems odd
...because it would ruin the economy?...
@@Nugget1103 I stated, "if they could afford all this without ruining the economy" so what other reason is there?
Because people have bought into the scaremongering of the mainstream parties
well said carla!
Carla being Vegan is brilliant, it shows she is understanding the science as well as the ethics :)
Im voting green, and i don't think it will be wasted vote, in contrary! It's one vote more for greens 😄
Yes
Electric vehicles create less brake dust since they can use the motor to stop. And unless you are doing burnouts, tires last just as long.
Yes.
What war on drugs? You have to be on drugs to think that there is a war on drugs.
No idea whatsoever.
can't wait for PR so i can see her in government!
dream party
Its like a uni project. Its silly that she even talks about "being given the keys to no 10" 😂
Just a snowflake joke party
Yeah look at Brighton, they take the bins out once a month. I’m good.
The tories cut substantial levels of funding, you should look at the funding models. Austerity, Brexit, Cronyism to Tory donors and rampant profiteering is why we're in this damn mess. Why do you think there is a moronic ban on onshore / offshore wind? We're a blood island for crying out loud, we get so much wind down our shores which could have been used to drive down our utlitiy bills. Yet, we're beholden to the rampant fleecing of utility companies - when prices of Gas and Oil drops we do not see the reduction in our bills. Ask yourself why is that?
Rubbish collections are managed by the council, not MPs
I know what comes out of their tailpipe.
Ha ha ha ha ha 😂😂😂🤣🤣
Thank you for your comment. It's been very useful. I'm voting green now.
@@Dierdre_Barlow Go ahead waste your vote I don't care 🤣
Voting reform by any chance?
Green liability...look at Brighton
Councils get money from central government, many MANY councils are underfunded and some have legit declared bankruptcy, but it's the Greens fault for Brighton? Pull the other one!
Brighton is controlled by Labour
What about Brighton?
The little green goblin
Look the state of this ITN reporter !! Standards are so low nowadays !
Calm down sam
state of you!
@@VinnyCarwash-js8op No ! we are talking about the disgraceful state of a tV news reporter ! Why is it acceptable !?
@@Sam_Green____4114 What's wrong with the guy lmao? Is it because he's not ten years away from retirement?
@@Nanman10 He looks like he's been dragged through a hedge backwards !! Not a very professional look is it ?
green party saying nothing new - my teacher told me so in 1987 -
That's because of the forces that be - the fossil fuel industry has been at this for decades with lobbying and misinformation campaigns whilst they knew the impacts of what they were doing. Hell they funded the research and shelved it because it would cost them some money. As opposed to shifting to renewables and making money that way... they decided to keep drilling for gas and oil. Short sighted greedy toads.
If something was done back then we wouldn't be in this climate debacle.
You can't tackle the Climate. It has and always will change.
It can be influenced and right now it's being influenced by humans - negative human activity such as deforestation, pollution, tar sands, burning of plastics and fossil fuels.
tell me you're uneducated without telling me you're uneducated.
Amazing you can remain o ignorant in a sea of evidence to the contrary. Congratulations! Dingbat of the year!
True, the climate is forever changing and getting warmer. So we may as well just set fire to the world, right?
Is that little boy standing as the green candidate old enough to be an MP?
Anonymity
@StratsRUs
No his names Carla
Not sure why this lot of conspiracy theorists get so much attention.
You mean Reform voters?
Why put so much effort into being an ignoramus?
@@alanwatterson2850 End of days, fear mongering death cult.
Vote green if you require more lesbianism
REAL 😹
If that's the best you can come up with @guff9567 I'll assume you're probably a Reform voter. Maybe a deluded Conservative if my first guess was wrong.
@@paulbassinder72 Munch green 🤮
@@guff9567 🤣
Yes please. Lesbian's are amazing.
Answer: Yes!! Vote Reform U.K. at the General elections.
The last thing anyone needs is climate deniers in power.
Answer yea it is a wasted vote
Let me save you over 9 minutes of your life. Yes it is a waste of your vote.
