GREEN Party letter writer Malachy McAnespie has been prolific in the Belfast Telegraph recently, but do these two diatribes about women in the past two days really represent party policy?
Elections have attracted fake letters to the Tele in the past, it must be said. Ms Whitcroft is well respected and known for her strongly-held views on equality for women, so it would be interesting to know how the Greens would react to these letters should they prove to be genuine.
