Hi everybody and hi Stephen,

good luck for the Left Party on British soil. Make sure the EL can't claim the
copyright on its name.

Labour or Greens means status quo and an absorption (and waste) of energy and good people
who have thought for decades that they can make a difference, but hardly ever do so.
In Germany the Social Democrats are sponsored by utility companies and the Greens by
ensurance companies and others. And that's where they are heading.
No, you don't want to do THAT, Stephen, do you?

Best wishes

Uli
