Following your article relating to Twitter, The Green Party and a link to an unflattering blog post (The Argus, January 6), I hope you will allow me to clarify my views on this snowstorm in a teacup.
Retweeting, or “RT”, on Twitter, the social networking site you mention, is rather like nudging someone on a train and muttering “Have you seen what this says about...”. And that is all I did.
I retweeted a message, which was originally sent to Caroline Lucas, which linked to a very old blog post about Green Party policy by someone I have never heard of.
I don’t believe anyone would or should give the blog post any credence at all. I hope this clarifies the situation. I meant no offence at all.
