I feel rather strongly that progressives/liberals/lefties/'various people against nasty things' should support the Greens in this instance. I disagree (no surprise) with Tony Benn's stance of supporting Davis as; backing him for two years' worth of votes on a single issue in a potentially tight parliament is bad enough, but doing so when there is another candidate who agrees with Davis and Benn on 42 days but is very much closer to Benn (I should think) on just about everything else is, frankly, cuckoo. xD.

Shan Oakes, the Green candidate, has already confronted Davis on Iraq, 28 days and the death penalty. Hopefully there will be public debates that force him to defend his views in the media glare. My post on what's going on in Shan's campaign is here - http://aleddilwynfisher.wordpress.com/2008/06/29/radical-politics-in-action-shan-oakes-for-haltemprice-and-howden-mp-update/ Cheers, Aled:) Hi Dave,
