Greens divided over Anti-Nice campaign

It has emerged that there is a division in the Green Party over their anti-Nice Treaty campaign.

Green leaders are to meet with members of the party who support the "Yes" side early next week in a bid to settle their differences.

Their views are not represented in the "No to Nice" campaign.

Spokesperson John Bergin said many Green Party members will vote "Yes" to Nice.

"We have already had a signal from some figures in the leadership that they would like dialogue with us.

"We are very encouraged by that, we hope to meet with them after the weekend and we hope to have some real public acknowledgement of the large number of Yes voters among the Green Support base."
