Cat-killing party TOP was pleased to use Joy as a promoter of its policies – especially on water – using a statement from the good doctor. However, as a long-time Green Party supporter, Joy was soon getting grief from his former tree-hugging fans and, in a panic, he then publicly claimed he “had never endorsed TOP” and the cat killers had taken his statement from “a private Facebook post”. However, his duplicity was soon revealed when it came to light that he had in fact emailed TOP a statement to use. After the truth was revealed Joy claimed that he “forgot” he sent the email of support.
