In the election I’m voting to deal with the emergency and oppose the far right. I’m voting with the most vulnerable person that I know in mind. The millions in poverty, who can’t physically or mentally survive another five years of this are my number one concern. My priorities are in order.
FPTP is undemocratic so I’m promoting the loophole and encouraging everybody I know and can reach with my platforms else to do the same. Tactical voting is how we will destroy the bastards that have ruined our lives for 14 years.
I will vote for Labour. My vote for isn’t based on loving them as a party or because they represent me perfectly, no politician ever will, it’s practical. I know they’ll do a better job, because my cat in a fucking bow tie would do a better job.
They’re the route out. That’s what it’s about for me and it always been. It’s logical. Not ideological.
Never make political figures your idols. it makes them beyond reproach. We’ve seen firsthand the horrors that populism brings. Send Farage into obscurity along with the Conservative Party, he’s how we ended up with BluKip. He’s a shit that won’t flush until we collectively reject his outdated fascistic irrelevant bullshit.
Vote against the National Front. Vote against upperclasshole conmen posing as patriots who destroy our lives so their hedgefunder donors can get even richer. Vote to take your country back from racists.
Then demand voter reform and press reform.
Vote tactically. Destroy them.

"American Girl in Italy" (1951) is one of the most iconic photos of all time.
It tells a powerful story and raises big questions: is it a staged scene? were these men harassing the girl?
I'm going to tell you the true story behind this photo 🧵👇
Love this take on Rishi’s ‘Maths to 18’ policy. The Creative Arts is one of the last industries the UK globally over-achieves in.
As ever with TikTok, the best content is always in the comments:
“Games Workshop makes more money annually than the entire UK fishing industry.”
@hannahprevett@claires The piercing screams, you mean? You know in Spain, I’ve heard, the doctors do it before they hand you your baby to indicate whether it’s a girl or a boy!
Is it just me, or is this season of The Crown the shittest yet? I’m howling at these little divorce vignettes in the ‘Couple 31’ episode 🤣 like those bits in When Harry Met Sally (if directed by Ken Loach)
I actually keep a blog called “Where are you really from?”. Here’s the first post, about how I tackle that question (while revealing I’m not from upmarket Shrewsbury at all) 🤣 https://t.co/yTXIbga2L0
Genuinely overheard in a Leyton dry cleaners and alterations shop just now: “My trousers need altering.” “What? They need watering?” “Um, no altering?” “Oh yes, we do that.”
