I'm not.

Not sure who has told you that, but he is virtually anonymous to non-Greens. You can't appeal to anybody if they don't even know you exist!

My view on Ramsey is that he appeals to hardly anybody, rural, urban, conservative, leftist or otherwise as he has been remarkably invisible since becoming leader.

I'm not sure that is true these days. In any case, I'm fairly sure most voters don't view party leaders as urban/non-urban, nor make voting choices on that basis.

Huh? I just copied and pasted this on a laptop with no issues: "My frustration with the BlueSky is that as someone who mainly does social on a laptop, I can't simply cut & paste text or links into it. Its cumbersome."

No, not in the slightest. Utterly reckless.

Well that sucks...

I would say send them a free sample pack of teabags, but if they were just going to ruin them by adding rice krispie milk...😯

There's some proper wrong 'uns around isn't there?
