Erm, so now the party has one Principal Speaker in favour of having a leader and one who is against. A bit like before, then. I’ve been thinking of joining the party for a while now, but I’m not going to do so until the leadership question is resolved, and then only if the party goes for having a single leader. These PS results don’t help in forming a view on the likly outcome of the membership vote.

erm.. Harry. If you are thinking of joining the party but want to see the leadership issue settled in favour of having a leader the best thing to do is join the party now not wait. As a Green sympathiser all you can do is blog on the issue but as a Green member you will be entitled to vote in the referendum.
