Martyn Shrewsbury and Pippa Bartolotti - dirty tricks?



Brig Strawbridge facebook page appears recently criticising Andy Chtyba, Turns not there is

no such person. That didn't stop Pippa Bartolotti welcoming it. Who wrote it?

Martyn Shrewsbury is a possible culprit. He was 'leader' of the wales section of the England 

and Wales green party before Jake Griffiths but disappeared in a blaze of bad publicity.

Martyn Shrewsbury a convicted fraudster, self-confessed adulterer, and 

charlatan hypnotherapist! He apparently disappeared for a few years and reappeared 

quite recently. He was present at the the last Wales Council meeting.

He seems to be working with Ashley Wakeling and plans to join him tonight at a public 

meeting.   (English Ashley previously a candidate for Maidstone South )

And there's the recent blog supporting Pippa for 'leader'. After all she only got 27 votes last time standing unopposed. And she thanks 'Brig' for the link! 

I very much like this new blog discovery. Ecosocialism in action! http://agreenwales.blogspot.co.uk/

Brig Strawbridge and Eve Merrick-Williams like this. 
Pippa Bartolotti - Wales Green Party Leader Thanks Brig! 

I actually forgot to put his on my own page! Thank you Green Dragon. Maybe one day I'll find out who you are :-)...
So it seems to be close links between Pippa and Martyn! Was this the same Pippa who demanded the expulsion of a wales council member for asking her questions she didn't want to answer. Even after the entire conference voted that the expulsion was unconstitutional refused to reverse it.
And has suspended and trying to expel the newletter editor and campaigns officer on the Wales Council.

PS Got to laugh!

backing Pippa unfortunately will give you the wrong leader.

backing Pippa unfortunately will give you the wrong leader.

This is at "No New Wars No to NATO-Cardiff Conference-30.08.14" if you are happy with this logic and leader for Wales
'...I do lots and lots of campaigning on Green issues, peace issues, local issues' [some example p[lease?] '..' I have been to Cuba..Gaza..Newport...I am a very practical girl...and this part of the day..so this little part of the day can be about practical issues, about things we can do, about things that we should think very seriously because there is a lot happening in the next couple of years...our opportunity that we must take very seriously...2016 Trident replacement..the day of reckoning is within sight.....' (????)

'...talking to people, examining the opportunities and the issues, there is a huge body of expertise here in this room, people who has been campaigning for years, know what works and what does not work, people who have an enormous repository of knowledge of weaponry...deployment and all the other issues that go along with stance for peace and against nuclear armament....'
What is she talking about? anybody can challenge her and ask to explain what she really mean with that? does she know any GP policies?

Andy Chyba candidate for 'leadership' wales section green party

Andy Chyba Nov 2014 

I have apologised repeatedly for my poor choice of words re the welsh language. Apologising is something that Pippa never does of her own volition, despite offending many both within and outside of the party with her far-from ecosocialist views on many topics. Ask any member of Green Left their views on her politics.
She has been booed off the stage at national conference for offending most party members, censured by a near unanimous conference vote for not submitting reports, forced to apologise in the media for ridiculous and misleading polling claims (and subsequently spun the same untruths to members) and managed to alienate a whole segment of the electorate by labelling the whole of the older generation racist in the Western Mail.
Do not be fooled into thinking she has been in any way responsible for the upsurge in membership. I would warrant that she has been responsible for far more members lost (many to Plaid Cymru) than she has gained over the last three years, including several very senior and experienced members I know well and sorely miss.
As for Plaid Cymru, it is I that have been responsible for building bridges in that direction and with whom their leadership would be far happier working. My stance on the Euro election was driven by my commitment to ecosocialist ideals ahead of my party. It would have been a massive tragedy for the movement in Wales, and the people of Wales, if Jill Evans had lost her seat, especially given that it could almost as easily have gone to a second UKIP MEP than a second Labour one. It was a stance that has been welcomed by senior members of GPEW and the European Green Party (to have lost Jill, while gaining Molly Scott Cato would have left the Green/EFA delegation from the UK unchanged instead of gaining one). It also leaves me in a much stronger and more respected bargaining position with PC than Pippa.
Over the coming weeks I will be laying out my vision for taking the Green Party forward (follow via the bridgendgreens.net blog) by developing and empowering local parties and activists and ensuring our embarrassing duck at County Council level is well and truly broken. I have the support of people with proven track records of success to help us with this - as neither me or Pippa have had any electoral success ourselves. I will ensure that this leadership and guidance extends to the whole of Wales.
Pippa has a maximum of two more years at the helm under the party constitution. She cannot lead us into the vital local authority elections in 2017. Given the upsurge in new members this year, I believe it is vital that they have a say in the image, philosophy and integrity with the party operates and is portrayed. The choice is stark one.


Max Wallis Was Campaign officer and newletter editor until Pippa didnt approve!   

Our values are green" says the blog blurb.   Greens are strongly opposed to censorship, yet Pippa is into expulsion of fellow GP members for disclosing her (murky) past pippabartolotti.info  That past in electronics business included supplying military contracts in Wales, including AB Electronics and Thales.  Perhaps Encrypta’s electronic locking devices were not central to the killing function, but surely you should appraise Barttolotti’s refusal to admit and regret past business and profits from arms manufacture?  Is integrity not part of green values and red politics?
