Ironically that campaign vehicle doesn't seem to be very environmentally friendly.

Hey, there's a tree behind it! That makes it friendly.

That was my whole point in posting the pic. The Wild Rose party is actually a right of center political party with a strong rural base. Has very little 'green' in it other than farmer subsidies.

The truth is, I don't think anybody really knows what their platform is. They frequently mention having a platform, they just don't bother sharing it with anyone.

There was probably a lot of money involved to show that the tire on the left is cold and erect while the tire on the right is not cold.......They really should have done a computer simulation before applying the skin on that bus...

If only American politicians were like this... I'd love for them to stay quiet!

Love that pic Windi!

They are repainting/recovering the bus.

Reminds me of this pic from the side of a bus in Bangkok.
