So, I quite honestly believe that the Greens are Australia's serious third party: but I'm concerned that for a broad part of Australia's population, you'll always be the parties of "hippies who want to stop progress etc". Looking at the tweets and FB comments on the Greens' pages is often particularly depressing.
What can you - or we, or Greens' members (of which I am one, please enjoy my donation kthx) - actually do to overcome this preconception? I believe in economic growth and prosperity and all that good stuff as much as everybody else, I just think we should go about it in a different way (innovation/investment in information technology, green energy, etc etc).
