General Election - 4th July 2024

Begrudgingly voting for Labour due to my MP being fantastic.

Honestly, it’s a very underrated way to vote. If everybody voted for the person they felt was competent, capable and represented their local interests then we would be in a much better state.

The problem we have is how many MPs occupy safe seats because people vote down party lines regardless of who the candidate is. Therefore many of them can do and say effectively whatever they want.

When in doubt, actually speak to your representatives.

Nige might have his critics but yet again here he is showing how in touch with the people he is :

Slimy racist ****..

Is he thinking of forming his own youth movement?

Yeah I agree, deciding who to put in charge of the country and be accountable for a large proportion of the quality of life of everyone that lives here isn’t a subject to get emotive about at all.

t’s not something actually important, like football, is it…? ;)

Yes but it's not up to you or anyone else to tell some who they should and shouldn't vote for. That's the right of this country to vote who you want. You can have your opinion a certain party, but telling people they can't vote for that party is imo not acceptable .

Was going to be Lib Dem as a tactical vote…however it seems Labour may have the edge. Bad news, not sure it’s going to matter either way. Which is bit of a bummer.

Labour it is.

Haha fuckin hell

Tbh if someone is voting for a Racist party its fair game to call them out

I disagree, you have zero right, you can have your opinion on that party, but it's anybody's right to vote who they want.

Why do political parties spend lots of money telling you to vote for them?

Didn't Germany ban their equivalent of Reform UK after the WW2?

Well ban them then, then people can't vote for them, but if they are legally able to stand then it's the choice of the voter. Trust me I won't be voting for them but I'm not going to abuse somebody who does.

Nobody’s telling anyone who to vote for. I don’t give a shit who people I don’t know vote for. If someone owns up to being a Reform voter I will assume they’re either thick, gullible, racist or all three. I also know that it’s highly unlikely that person will give a shit what I think anyway. So vote for who you want and it’s up to you whether you tell people who you’re voting for.

Some clearly are on this thread hence my original post and there's was posts that crossed the line which is unacceptable imo.
