We talked a lot about brexit. The Tories have been a fucking shambles. Time to change? Trouble is i don’t believe a word of anything. Politicians nor press nor Twitter.
Politically this country seems to me like no one GAF.
Looking at current situation there isn’t a candidate or party to vote for. Unless lib dems will get their shit together but odds of that happenings are slim to none.
Ultimately just get out there fucking vote. To many people don’t, especially the under 30s, get registered, get you ballot, and fucking vote, there is no excuse. If you don’t vote, then don’t complain when the cunts dismantle the NHS, Social Care, and everything else.

Whilst I will vote (even though it won’t make one bit of difference where I live)… just like I did in the previous election, I couldn’t disagree more with the sentiment that ‘if you can’t vote, don’t complain’
There is a difference between those who don’t vote due to apathy and due to not wanting to participating in a system of politics that promotes this type of democracy. Change doesn’t only happen at a ballot box…
Tactical voting sites say if you live in a Tory area vote for whoever came second (unless it was UKIP, obvs). If you live in a non Tory area vote for whoever came first to avoid splitting the vote. Seems as good a plan as any considering they all seem like a waste of space at the moment. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah, my area is pretty solidly tory (nearly 60%) despite the fact that our MP is Chris Grayling who appears to be a complete tool, he’s also transport secretary on a southern rail line and brexit campaigner in an area that voted remain but I don’t think any of that is going to sway things much. I will vote but it will be a waste of time.

I'm trying to find the source, but in the 2015 election, someone worked out how many people it would take to radically change the turnout of the election. The number was relativity small ~150'000 IIRC. Which is peanuts considering that the turnout was 60% (30'691'680 people) which mean over 12 million people did not vote, so if 1% of the people who didn't vote voted, it would have radically change the outcome of the last election.
This is the 'anyone but the tories' voting guide.
