Alf is damned glad he doesn’t belong to a party which serves up vegan food at its conferences and declares them to be a fragrance-free affair.
This, it seems, means party members are expected to eschew deodorants and perfumes, and so on, which in turn means those who turn up are exposed to the pong of the raw body odours of delegates who are apt to be sparing with the use of soap.
Because Alf would avoid such occasions, the Greens have been denied his advice on how to improve their education policy.
That policy was announced today, as you can find here.
The Greens want to install nurses in every low decile primary and intermediate school to tackle poverty-related illness.
Great. But it doesn’t go far enough.
A doctor should be part of the package.
And a dentist.
