Caroline Lucas set to see if Brighton currency idea is sound as a pound (From The Argus)

I understand nothing about local economics but with Lucas's face beaming down on the story like the demented and downright foul politician she is, this is a stupid idea.

A local currency will mean more her beloved travelers and squatters can steal from normal hard working people.

I see the negative loudmouths are getting agitated already. One even admits above that they know nothing about local economies. So what are you doing commenting on a story about the local economy, you blithering idiot?

Regional currencies are designed to stimulate local economies, and have done. It's a good idea. If you want to have a hissy fit at the Greens, this isn't the place to do it.

Now bore off down to Stanmer Park and uproot some dandelions or something.

Had this been Kirby or Weatherley then there would not been a peep. Is it an organised campaign I wonder?

Are there schemes that work? If the answer is yes, then can they be applied to B&H successfully? If yes then we should explore doing so. If no is the answer to the above then we should not proceed. That is the grown up thing to do.

It is clear that most of the above will not join in, that is not a problem as there are many that will support a scheme if it can be demonstrated to work, particularly if it supports our local shops and suppliers.

Your comments make those made by sbiscorrupt seem well thought through and relevant. You would do well to stop posting until you improve your critical thinking and problem solving skills.and can produce even the most basic argument. To be frank your comments are at best ridiculous.

Oh save it for the Cowley Club mate. Most people here don't agree with this but we don't need the 'corporate elite' lecture again.

Hmmm... so you are saying that if there are schemes that work to provide a benefit for local people and businesses we shouldn't introduce them? Is that correct?

Kirby and Weatherly would not propose such nonsense. Its another example of the Greens fiddling whilst Rome burns. They are getting close to finalising their ten commandments for how we should live our lives. Let's see what have we had so far... 1. Thou shalt not eat meet on Monday. 2. Thou shall not play the National lottery for tis bad for the working class who cannot be trusted to spend their money responsibly. 3. Thou shalt not burn yuletide logs at the time formally known as Christmas. 4. Thou shalt not refer to each other as Mr or Mrs for thou art gender neutral and it is an abomination to two citizens and the Lord Phelim. 5. Thou shalt not use thy car unless thou is rich and can afford to park it. 6. Thou shalt not attend Farmer's Markets for they are the crucibles of speciesism a discrimination akin to racism and homophobia (this commandment to be phased in by 2016). 7. Thou shalt not use money save for the Brighton Pound and otherwise return to the barter system for Caroline delights in clean exchanges amongst the self-rightous. 8. Thou shalt ride thy bike the wrong way down one-way streets for the laws of the road do not apply to thou and Jason shall rise up and apply his laws to his people and smite the petrolheads. Two more to go. Or have I missed anything?

Hjarrs - For clarity, your assertion was completely incorrect and highlights the weakness in your ability to use two basic skills as mentioned.

Your comments consistently portray you as the green parties 'village idiot' of this site and you should consider either stopping posting, or throttling your urge to spout nonsense. If you don't believe the scale of your problem then read a few of your posts.

What an absolute joke. No real argument of any substance so just indulge in (not even very witty) ad hominem attacks.

One of the joys of reading this article is to read the succession of witless missives from the usual dinosaurs, sociopaths and wingnuts at the bottom.

Yes, I think so:-


Thou shalt chop down ash, oak and other trees at Wild Park, and so create a paradise for sheep and the shepherd, having driven out the people with thy fencing and destroyed the habitat of some 90 species, at a cost of £120,000.

(That’s real money by the way, not made-up Brighton pounds).

Yawn, yawn.

How laughable that you and others seek to misrepresent a scheme that could aid local Brighton and Hove businesses. I also note how few of the nagative posters say a peep about the forthcoming £50 million of cuts over the next two years forced upon the council by the Tories. What have your Weatherley and Kirby done to defend the council's budget...deafening silence. It seems to me that many of you actually want to do down the city.

How are your benefits flowing?

Just remember, you are owed a living by people like me who get up at 4am to ensure that we get the job done, that triggers the pay and in turn the tax to be passed to people like you.

If you need more, let me know and I'll consider writing you a personal cheque.

Alternatively you could join society and maybe get some work instead of relying on others!

It is clear that most of the above will not join in, that is not a problem as there are many that will support a scheme if it can be demonstrated to work, particularly if it supports our local shops and suppliers.

Kirby and Weatherly would not propose such nonsense. Its another example of the Greens fiddling whilst Rome burns. They are getting close to finalising their ten commandments for how we should live our lives. Let's see what have we had so far...
1. Thou shalt not eat meet on Monday.
2. Thou shall not play the National lottery for tis bad for the working class who cannot be trusted to spend their money responsibly.
3. Thou shalt not burn yuletide logs at the time formally known as Christmas.
4. Thou shalt not refer to each other as Mr or Mrs for thou art gender neutral and it is an abomination to two citizens and the Lord Phelim.
5. Thou shalt not use thy car unless thou is rich and can afford to park it.
6. Thou shalt not attend Farmer's Markets for they are the crucibles of speciesism a discrimination akin to racism and homophobia (this commandment to be phased in by 2016).
7. Thou shalt not use money save for the Brighton Pound and otherwise return to the barter system for Caroline delights in clean exchanges amongst the self-rightous.
8. Thou shalt ride thy bike the wrong way down one-way streets for the laws of the road do not apply to thou and Jason shall rise up and apply his laws to his people and smite the petrolheads.

Two more to go. Or have I missed anything?

Yawn, yawn.

How laughable that you and others seek to misrepresent a scheme that could aid local Brighton and Hove businesses. I also note how few of the nagative posters say a peep about the forthcoming £50 million of cuts over the next two years forced upon the council by the Tories. What have your Weatherley and Kirby done to defend the council's budget...deafening silence. It seems to me that many of you actually want to do down the city.

The fact that supposedly such high cuts took place this year and no one I know has noticed any difference in public services makes me wonder how much money must have been wasted over the the years. Thank goodness the council is being forced at last to be careful with our money.

7. Thou shall waste millions of pounds by building bicycle lanes that no one uses.
8. Thou shall build ridiculous bicycle parks that no one with a bike worth £30 or over would use (for fear of being nicked).
9. Thou shall have ridiculous facial hair and a name that sounds made up and like a chocolate bar.

Your comments make those made by sbiscorrupt seem well thought through and relevant. You would do well to stop posting until you improve your critical thinking and problem solving skills.and can produce even the most basic argument. To be frank your comments are at best ridiculous.

Hmmm... so you are saying that if there are schemes that work to provide a benefit for local people and businesses we shouldn't introduce them? Is that correct?

Hjarrs - For clarity, your assertion was completely incorrect and highlights the weakness in your ability to use two basic skills as mentioned.

Your comments consistently portray you as the green parties 'village idiot' of this site and you should consider either stopping posting, or throttling your urge to spout nonsense. If you don't believe the scale of your problem then read a few of your posts.

What an absolute joke. No real argument of any substance so just indulge in (not even very witty) ad hominem attacks.

One of the joys of reading this article is to read the succession of witless missives from the usual dinosaurs, sociopaths and wingnuts at the bottom.

Exactly the sort of ridiculous post we should have expected from you. No views beyond getting something for nothing and the world owes you a living, keen for others to provide for you in exactly the way / shape you want it. I am surprised you even bother to post, or does someone in social services do it for you?

That's the verdict from the Wingnut-in-Chief!

How are your benefits flowing?

Just remember, you are owed a living by people like me who get up at 4am to ensure that we get the job done, that triggers the pay and in turn the tax to be passed to people like you.

If you need more, let me know and I'll consider writing you a personal cheque.

Alternatively you could join society and maybe get some work instead of relying on others!

Ah! The argument lost, the stereotyping begins.

Funny, Andy R was supposed to be a shop steward in other posts, so would clearly have a job. If he is on benefits or has a job is irrelevant to the subject, which is that here is an idea that could benefit the local economy - you continuously do not answer whether you agree with local money if it could be shown to benefit the local economy.

Personally I work and pay a significant amount of tax and need no condescending lessons from you. I owe you nothing. If you don't like getting up at 4am, then get off your lazy backside and get another job!

Amazing how a party called Green "sneaked in" cyclepaths. Nobody could ever have imagined that they would have built them from their manifesto commitments!

If you can't get out of your car, then so be it, but let the rest of us have the choice to safely use a healthy and cheap form of transport.

Yep just a shame we spent all that money on cycle lanes for only you as the lanes are empty.

It might just be that the council is being better run under a Green adminsistration.

The Tories were useless and Labour, while they made some notable achievements, fritted away an opportunity to transform B&H at a time when money was plentiful.

The council has been very successful recently in levering additional funding for a number of infrastructure schemes, which get the trolls frothing at the mouth.

Did the Lewes pound provide a positive stimulus to the Lewes economy? Is it still going? What lessons cn be learned to make a Brighton pound successful? Does the Bristol scheme working or are there other working examples? I would like to know, perhaps the Argus could do some investigative journalism on what could be a significant economic evelopment.

I can see that if you shop at local traders and sufficient numbers of local businesses take this up then there could be a significant economic boost and a benefit of keeping money in the community. Those that only shop and trade with corporations and multinationals do not seem to be the people who this scheme is initially aimed at.

It is easy to take a pop at this as it is an example of lateral thinking and change to the othordox, which frightens some people as demonstrated above.

He's a union man. He supported the Labour candidate in the recent elections and lied about being told no rocks were thrown at Mike Wetherley. He's a nasty piece of work.

It is clear that most of the above will not join in, that is not a problem as there are many that will support a scheme if it can be demonstrated to work, particularly if it supports our local shops and suppliers.

Kirby and Weatherly would not propose such nonsense. Its another example of the Greens fiddling whilst Rome burns. They are getting close to finalising their ten commandments for how we should live our lives. Let's see what have we had so far...
1. Thou shalt not eat meet on Monday.
2. Thou shall not play the National lottery for tis bad for the working class who cannot be trusted to spend their money responsibly.
3. Thou shalt not burn yuletide logs at the time formally known as Christmas.
4. Thou shalt not refer to each other as Mr or Mrs for thou art gender neutral and it is an abomination to two citizens and the Lord Phelim.
5. Thou shalt not use thy car unless thou is rich and can afford to park it.
6. Thou shalt not attend Farmer's Markets for they are the crucibles of speciesism a discrimination akin to racism and homophobia (this commandment to be phased in by 2016).
7. Thou shalt not use money save for the Brighton Pound and otherwise return to the barter system for Caroline delights in clean exchanges amongst the self-rightous.
8. Thou shalt ride thy bike the wrong way down one-way streets for the laws of the road do not apply to thou and Jason shall rise up and apply his laws to his people and smite the petrolheads.

Two more to go. Or have I missed anything?

Yes, I think so:-


Thou shalt chop down ash, oak and other trees at Wild Park, and so create a paradise for sheep and the shepherd, having driven out the people with thy fencing and destroyed the habitat of some 90 species, at a cost of £120,000.

(That’s real money by the way, not made-up Brighton pounds).

Labour and Conservative policy is different is it?

If I am not wrong, the change of habitat to calcareous grass land has been progressing for a number of years over several administrations.

I'm afraid you're wrong - it's not calcareous chalk grassland that's there, but woodland. Ask the Forestry Commission.That's why the Council had to replant trees in Stanmer Park to make up for those they'd cut down without obtaining permission. Also, it's worth pointing out that the landscape there has been managed for a number of years, rather than being wiped out on a whim, as is now happening. As the party in power, the Greens are overseeing the eradication of habitat where their own council survey discovered more than 90 new species previously unrecorded in the area. This clearance will allow an ever-expanding portion of the park to be fenced off so it can be grazed by sheep, with the administration taking funding that was really intended for farmers as a consequence. This means that money that would have gone to helping conservation of nature elsewhere has therefore been diverted to destroying much-loved green space in a public park on the urban fringe. Please do explain how felling trees to make money in this way fits in with Green Party philosophy? Perhaps our MP would like to comment? Surely it's basically the same as clearing the Amazon rainforest for grazing - except the Greens obviously prefer sheep to cattle?

Your comments make those made by sbiscorrupt seem well thought through and relevant. You would do well to stop posting until you improve your critical thinking and problem solving skills.and can produce even the most basic argument. To be frank your comments are at best ridiculous.

Hmmm... so you are saying that if there are schemes that work to provide a benefit for local people and businesses we shouldn't introduce them? Is that correct?

Hjarrs - For clarity, your assertion was completely incorrect and highlights the weakness in your ability to use two basic skills as mentioned. Your comments consistently portray you as the green parties 'village idiot' of this site and you should consider either stopping posting, or throttling your urge to spout nonsense. If you don't believe the scale of your problem then read a few of your posts.

What an absolute joke. No real argument of any substance so just indulge in (not even very witty) ad hominem attacks. One of the joys of reading this article is to read the succession of witless missives from the usual dinosaurs, sociopaths and wingnuts at the bottom.

Exactly the sort of ridiculous post we should have expected from you. No views beyond getting something for nothing and the world owes you a living, keen for others to provide for you in exactly the way / shape you want it. I am surprised you even bother to post, or does someone in social services do it for you?

That's the verdict from the Wingnut-in-Chief!

How are your benefits flowing? Just remember, you are owed a living by people like me who get up at 4am to ensure that we get the job done, that triggers the pay and in turn the tax to be passed to people like you. If you need more, let me know and I'll consider writing you a personal cheque. Alternatively you could join society and maybe get some work instead of relying on others!

Well....that'll have lots of people scurrying back to the drawing board rethinking who they thought I was..... You really are quite dim aren't you?

In comparison to you, I suspect not. As to people scurrying back to drawing boards then recent publicity on the effectiveness of job centre plus suggested a fairly low energy response to benefit claimants, so make your own mind up and in the interim please do continue enlightening us as to why anyone may give two hoots as to who you are and what you do?

He's a union man. He supported the Labour candidate in the recent elections and lied about being told no rocks were thrown at Mike Wetherley. He's a nasty piece of work.

Hilarious...utterly hilarious....

It's almost Pavlovian how you can always be relied upon to come trolling into a discussion. I could almost set my watch by it.

Any abuse from you can of course only be treated as high praise.

I suppose that, for as long as you are here, your own planet is getting a rest at least.

Of course you're not 'under any obligation' you weirdo, what do you think this is? an interrogation? an episode of The Bill? You know you've been caught lying, we know you've been caught lying. Now if you'll excuse me I think I'll say no more on here without my lawyer present.

This lot have become such mini dictators about our llifestyles, we will probably have to pay a Green pound to spend a penny.
Even then they will probably want to check that we are using recycled toilet paper.
