No Guardians in the Bull Ring

Conference season again, so off we trotted to Birmingham to celebrate being In Parliament. As usual, we caused a run on Guardians and soya milk in the local retail establishments, and the till guy in M&S said to me “You don’t want a bag do you? I know the Greens are in town” I should add that this was meant nicely.

 Conference was a very positive experience, with sunshine, lots of people there and a good venue right in the middle of Brum. My personal highlights included workshops from the Anti Academy Alliance (the name says it all) and cramming in with a cast of thousands to debate our stance on the AV referendum. I was even part of the winning team (wittily named ‘AV Plus’) in the Young Greens’ Quiz on Saturday night – hurrah for the Hinterland!
