Lib Dems looking over their shoulders

I thought I’d just point to a couple of blogs that have been generated in the last day or two: the Lib Dem’s Quaquam blog predicting that we will start to threaten them now we have elected Caroline Lucas as leader, and noting our ‘seriousness of purpose’ in the London elections. Good also to see some Greens engaging in debate there.

For Welsh speakers, blogMenai notes our growth in Brighton and Norwich with interest and enthusiasm, and asks why the Welsh Greens haven’t raised a more distinct Welsh identity, attributing our lack of success there to this factor.

We have of course secured quite a few community councillors in Wales, including three in nearby Conwy and Llandudno this year, but I think Wales Green Party needs to take a look on some basic things, like its membership systems, which I am sure are restricting its growth. It also should think about promoting its genuinely distinct Welsh identity, which I know to be there, despite Menai Blog’s difficulty in finding it.
