Sheffield Green Party speak against cuts

Anyone see Caroline Lucas on The Daily Politics recently? Sat alongside James Delingpole (yes, THAT James Delingpole, the one who was intelectually raped by Sir Paul Nurse), she was thrown the often-used criticism of the Green Party/Green Movement:  That she's a watermelon - Green on the outside, Red on the inside.  She of course, replied with the perfect repost:  "I've no problem with that James", were the last word she said before Andrew Neil had to move on to other topics.

That this is somehow a criticism is beyond me.  Socialist politics, taken to their logical conclusion, have to result in the adoption of green policies.  This week,a Sheffield Green, Bernard Little, made this speech to an anti-cuts rally.
