If you live in Britain and haven't joined already, I'd recommend looking into PAL - the people's alliance of the left.

Originally set up by @ThelmaWalker , so follow her.

I honestly can't see any other way, short of a coup within the Labour party or a long running general strike for there to be any representation of the British public in national politics.

@dave @ThelmaWalker Do you not think that splitting the vote would just help the Tories retain power? Perhaps if we had PR this would be great. Interested in your thoughts. 👍🏼

@DarryB @ThelmaWalker Streeting wants to throw money at private healthcare. Reeves wants to cap energy costs at over double the European average. Cooper wants to turbo charge ASBOs. Labour MPs are being forced not to back workers during industrial action. I haven't heard anything about the housing crisis or young people too scared to start families because of economic instability.

You're getting Tories if Labour win anyway. The choice we face as a nation shouldn't be entirely down to how much decorum they show as they rip us off.

When there’s so little difference between the two main parties , it’s not splitting the vote. We need radical change. Electoral and constitutional reform is needed and it will be tough at first.
If it’s a hung parliament, independents and socialist MPs could have real power.:-)
