People like him make voting fun. It's what I love the most about the UK, the chance to throw shade at certain politicians in the Tory party. I'm voting Labour today to kick out the Tory PCC in my local area.
- Rinzler89 2y agoHaha, yeah, wish the US would have joke candidates too. Oh wait, one of them even won.
- tetris11 2y agoMe too, but I'm not hopeful for any meaningful change. Labour will win landslide the next election, but won't undo much of the damage from the last decade. No loan forgiveness, no new housing, no proportional voting system. I hate that "tactical voting" is all we have.
- 01HNNWZ0MV43FF 2y agoYou have fptp there too?
- blisstonia 2y agoYes, unfortunately. In the past the London Mayoral and London Assembly votes were Proportional Representation — but that changed this year. General Elections in the UK have always been FPTP.
- mrlonglong 2y agoThe corrupt Tories changed the voting system for PCCs, now it's fptp. It's long past time we went for PR to put an end to the major parties' grip on power.
