Sunday Times article 14th of May, Why jaded rural Tories are voting Green
My letter to the editor this afternoon in response to this mornings article.
Dear Sir
In response to your article ‘Why jaded rural Tories are voting Green’ 14th of May, does Andy Mellen, farmer, Green councillor and leader of Mid Suffolk District Council and those who voted Green this election really understand Green policy?
If their commitment to withdraw from Nato and support of Republicanism weren’t enough, you would think as rural dwellers that their policy of forcing us all onto vegan diets and introducing nationwide right to roam would be sufficient reason to reject them at the ballot box.
Voting Green might feel like a wise protest vote but having the Greens in power for even a short time would devastate our rural way of life.
Kind regards
James Wright
