An election reminder. If you can't vote for the candidate you want because they won't get enough support to win then vote against the one you don't want by voting for the candidate best placed to beat them. You don't have to like them personally, just want to take a step along the road.

In the vast, vast majority of cases that means voting for Labour. The pro-Brexit, Tory-continuation party with Wes "Lets fully implement that Cass Report" Streeting as Health Secretary and led by Keir "Section 28 v2" Starmer.

And parties have, in the past, totally ignored anyone's actual reason for voting for them and taken it as total support for them and their policies.

You good with that?

I'm mostly resigned to it as the only game in town. The Tories have demonstrated that they can't be moved, we have to hope that the next Parliament can be shifted. If we don't have hope then we might as well invite someone to nuke us.

@AlisonW I'm Trans.

So vote for Christmas in the faint hope they decide to go veggie rather than follow through on all their promises and long standing traditions of having a big fat turkey?

Or is this one of those "I don't have to run faster than the tiger just faster than you" situations because you realise their aren't any lesbians in the world their funders want either right?
