Not looking forward to the next GE. With a foreign partner, if they start changing the rules for those with indefinite leave we’ll have to reconsider if we remain here. But I won’t exactly blame the people who vote Reform either. Labour aren’t exactly giving people much hope. Feels like there’s nobody I can personally vote for right now outside of a tactical vote.

    I usually think of first past the post as a system where you're voting to keep someone out, not voting to get someone in.

    I think tactical voting is the only way, and we should be promoting that as much as possible.

    Forward Democracy us the best source of tactical voting advice in my opinion. I think that as "the tactical vote" becomes increasingly known and targeting by parties, we will see a lot of misinformation in this area to try and confuse people to vote for the wrong tactical choice.
