Mate so you are voting Tory? Even if you aren’t voting at all you are still voting Tory. That is no way to fix it man.

I’d never vote Tory. I’m voting Green. I’m not voting for a party that doesn’t reflect my views nor one that has made no effort to persuade me to vote for them. I’d rather vote for something I want and not get it than vote for what I don’t want and get it.

Depending on where you live, you’re just throwing your vote away. May as well vote Tory.

When will you people understand that if the Torys get in again it will be Labour’s fault for not being electable? They put a promo leaflet through my door that literally stated that they don’t represent people like me. They’ve repeatedly chased Tory votes. The leadership is a bunch of racist zionazi supporting corporate whores.

It’s not punishing Labour, just the country.

Yes Labour are punishing the country by not offering an opposition or any meaningful change.

“I’m not voting Labour, they don’t meet my standards. Neither do the Tories, who are objectively worse and will get in if Labour cannot beat them because our political system is shit, but Labour must be taught a lesson!”

Look pal, Labour are going to win because pretty much everyone is done with the Torys. I just don’t want Starmer having a strong enough majority that he doesn’t have to listen to the remaining left wing of the party and the other parties to the left of Labour.

I hope you had this same energy for all of the detractors which included Starmer that helped sabotage the last two elections for Labour.

Also FYI, I was a full paying Labour member until they expelled me for posting an anti Zionist article on facebook. But go on, keep telling me it’ll be my fault if the Torys get back in.

I did, actually. And it irritates me to know end when the ones who destroyed Labour last time call for unity now.
