I guess it’s time to vote. I mourn the loss of STV.

    PSA to everyone:

    Remember to bring photo ID.

    You cannot vote without it. Along with abolishing STV, the requirement for photo ID was brought in by the Tories as a deliberate strategy to suppress their opponents’ vote. Don’t let them get away with it!

      It’s kind of hypocritical. When we were asking for a confirming vote on the actual deal to leave the EU it was how, unlike the second vote people they for in democracy. Turns out they never believed it. Such mendaciousness.

      With the loss of STV, they have gotten away with it somewhat. Now I have to vote tactically, not necessarily who I want First past the post is a racket. A corrupt game created by vested interests in power.

      Democracy, pah!
