Picture shows: Chris Kennedy the now ex Green Party candidate for the Makerfield Parliamentary seat.
Whilst I may some misgivings about how the amateur hour Restore Britain party are vetting or not their activists and candidates we should not forget that the Left has a similar problem.
Yesterday the Green Party announced with great fanfare the identity of their candidate for the Makerfield by-election which is coming in mid June. In the morning the Greens announced that Chris Kennedy was going to be their candidate but in the afternoon the candidate had withdrawn from the contest citing ‘personal’ reasons. Many wondered what these ‘personal reasons’ might be, did he suddenly have a fit of regrets about wanting to stand or was there some sort of skeleton in his cupboard?
Well it turned out that the second of the scenarios was the correct one. Safeguarding Nurse Kennedy stood down after it became public knowledge that he’d put out Nazi level bullshit on his social media feeds. He had accused the Jews or setting fire to their own ambulances in Golders Green as a sort of ‘false flag’ attack.
This sort of person isn’t a one off or a minority in the Green Party any more. Such people are now very representative as to what the Greens are all about. There’s always been Jew hatred on the Left but since the Greens decided that for electoral reasons they’d pivot to both the out there Left and the more Jew hating of Britain’s Muslims, the situation regarding Jew hatred in the Greens has got worse. The Greens seem to have abandoned environmentalism entirely and replaced with with Leftist/Islamic nutbaggery. About the only thing that’s ‘green’ about the Green Party today might be the sustainable coverings they wrap their members copies of the Koran or Hitler’s Mein Kampf in.
It’s shocking think that this nutbag Kennedy was not only considered for a while a perfect Green Party candidate for a by-election but that he works as a ‘Safeguarding nurse’. If a person is enamoured of bullshit conspiracy theories to such an extent that they publicise them under their own name, then how on Earth could they be considered in any sort of safeguarding role? How many others like Kennedy are lurking in Britain’s public services and in Britain’s National Health Service? There’s probably loads of this sort in our public sector who escape accountability because of their positions in the public sector blob.
On a broader political note, it’s likely that the Greens are going to have to find a new candidate pretty quickly. However they may not and may instead call for a Labour vote in order to keep Reform at bay in the Makerfield seat. This could strengthen Andy Burnham’s position as Labour candidate. It is therefore vitally important that votes that might have gone to smaller parties or the Tories are instead tactically gifted to Reform in order to dilute the ex Green now Labour vote in this seat.
