No doubt money will have to be put aside to pay for '5-homes' Lucas to fly back and forth between the UK and her beloved EU spiritual homeland in Brussels...

Here we go... can anyone actually corroborate if Caroline Lucas has 5 homes?

None other than Cllr. Jason Kitcat has verified this...

Will the Greens leave money aside to build Caroline Lucas's proposed UFO research centre in Brighton?

Are all of you that voted Green happy now? An inexperienced tree hugging party that is going to ruin this city before the next elections!

There is no reference anywhere on the internet about Caroline Lucas and a UFO centre other than comments here and blogs about comments here. I also have to say Caroline Lucas has responded to every email I have sent her, but then I include my name and address proving I live in the constituency. I didn't vote for her, but at least she appears to be doing her job. I've also seen her around Brighton. So, I suggest the UFO, five homes Brussels spouters are just making themselves look stupid.

1) Cllr. Jason Kitcat has confirmed that Lucas and her husband Richard Savage own five properties, two of which are located in Brussels. 2) Independent witnesses have on multiple time on Argus forums (and other areas) confirmed that they were literally feet away from Caroline Lucas when on the night the Greens were elected, she expressed her wish to make Brighton the premier centre for UFO research

A few weeks ago 'Brussels' Lucas was at the Occupy Brighton camp, and gave a speech in which she said that capitalism was (quote) "a failed monetary system" (unquote).

Is this the same 'failed monetary system' that has allowed Caroline Lucas and her husband to own five properties?

Surely it couldn't be the same 'failed monetary system' that has allowed 'Brussels' Lucas's husband Richard Savage to become a millionaire via his business dealings?

No, this couldn't possibly be the same 'failed monetary system' that has allowed Lucas to send her tow children to one of the most expensive and exclusive private schools in Brussels...

Sorry for the typo fail; that should be two children, not tow children...

If the Greens bring in their proposal of refuse collection ONCE A MONTH across Brighton, they'll be kicked-out of office long before the next election

Lets not forget that Caroline Lucas is a member and supporter of 'No Borders', a pro-mass immigration group

didn't Hitler also whisper to Hermann Goering that he was going to conquer the world ?

I think I now hold the record for fastest comment removal, which is odd, as it was relevant.......

WHAT? Half of Brighton looks like a Third-World slum and we have rubbish collection twice a week!

If council tax is going up, why are the Greens reducing rubbish collection to once a month?

That’s always been the plan no? Take more from us and provide less of a service?

They are all dodgy!!
If you pay a company for a service and they don’t provide the advertised service you can complain and get some form of compensation right? Whether it be a month’s free service or even money off your next bill. Yet when I tried this with the council they have their own special laws in place to stop you claiming. Funny that!!

If this happens ill start dumping my rubbish outside the council offices!

No comments of yours were removed from this thread.

OMG please please can we (Hove) split away from Brighton & Hove. We want our own borough back with our own borough council like we used to have. We don't want to be part of Brighton & Hove any more (we never actually did in the first place!) especially with this nightmare council!

Bring back Hove Borough Council!

I have noted with great alarm the comments from some people on this thread regarding the removal of Brighton's unique UFO centre, and I am concerned that we will be losing our competitive advantage. What can be more magical than the day when a young Brightonian (or Hovator, for that matter) is first shown round the secret UFO bunker beneath the town hall, where various notable relics of Brighton's extraterrestrial past are displayed in an enchanting exhibition. I was fortunate enough in my youth to visit this (along with my then juvenile Mighty Horse) and see some of the delights - the Great Pointy Clawed Hand that was retrieved from the West Pier after the Inflatable UFO Commotion of 1953, the eerie Double-Rotational Disk that was unearthed on the Downs in 1971, carrying Martian inscriptions, which is UNCANNILY EXACTLY THE SAME SHAPE as the new Falmer stadium. Not to mention the peculiar shape of the glorious King Alfred's leisure centre, which EXACTLY PARALLELS the mysterious "pyramids on Mars".

I understand that these are tough economic times, but for Brighton to ignore its rich alien heritage at such a crucial point would be to take actions similar to the Smoking Man in notable TV series, Quantum Leap. I believe I speak for both myself and my Mighty Horse when I assert here - I WANT TO BELIEVE. Can someone please reassure me that amidst this perfect fiscal storm, the Truth really is Out There?

Come on KitCat - gives us a break.

I am informed by a friend who is rather high up in the Lib-Dem hierarchy that there are serious murmurs of a vote of no confidence against Lucas and the Greens. Apparently even the Conservatives and Labour are cozying-up in a bid to give Lucas and her Marxist loons a 'black eye'

My friend lives in Brussels, does that mean he can help vote her out as she's more of a local over there than she is here.

To the stupid out there the police have dropped the case which is not the same as he did not do it . If you don't understand get your social worker to explain it to you.

Yes because B&HCC pay Caroline Lucas' travel expenses, don't they? lol

How much do the Labour Party pay you to work as a "junior researcher", Pork William? I hope you get the minimum wage...

They work for the Labour or Tory parties, silly. It's part of their 'political strategy' on a 'key marginal' to get the Argus to publish their cut-and-paste drivel.

It's also creepy Green party members and supporters who post pro-Green comments using different account names, such as 'The Baron Of Beef' and 'Sir Loin Of Pork'.

Laughing stock and so are their naive havent a clue middle class middleaged hippies and students.
What is the matter with the weak Tories and labourites.Have you really lost your bottle ?

Unfortunate I know but the Green Party are a compete joke which reflects on the City, I travel all over the uk on business and as yet not heard one positive comment about the party except is Kitcat related to the Cadbury family!! I usually reply to this, with a yes they make the chocolate tea pots! Enough said, a joke! If they remain in office they will turn Brighton into a Mega Hastings.
