    Thinking Starmer will offer you anything different is the epitome of apathy, voting neither is the exact opposite (and also is a vote against conservatives, which you would know if you’d actually read anything in the link which I suspect you didn’t even click).

    Maybe try actually understanding the system you’re blindly participating in and advocating for because you believe in the illusion of choice those in power have presented you with (don’t worry, I won’t hold my breath):

      This is a great discussion for the long term, but conservative rule must end. Labour is best positioned to actually beat them and are the better option.

        This is it. I’m Labour all the way and in a safe seat, but if I lived elsewhere I would have to seriously consider voting Lib Dem, Green, SNP or Plaid Cymru (or, really, anyone bar Reform!) if they were best-placed to beat the Tories. But the fact is that, as you say, for very nearly everywhere, Labour is the obvious choice to get the Conservatives out!

        They’ve beaten themselves. Only the lizards are still voting Tory. They’re fucked. Your dusty argument of having to vote for the only other biggest party is useless in this case. Vote for who you want. The Tories aren’t getting in
