1) #GTTO Get the Tory Out. Too bad for too long
2) #KRO Keep Reform Out. Solution to Blue Tories is not even more extreme Pale-Blue Tories
3) #GLO Get Labour Out. Punish Red Tories for being the same as Blue Tories

Which leaves LibDem, Green to do the right thing.

One month to go till the County Council elections. For the counties that haven't cancelled them because they want to fast track the conversion to Unitary councils and mayors.

Vote LibDem, Green to do the right thing.

You can hate the Red Tories just as much as the Blue Tories. The solution isn't the even more extreme Pale Blue Tories.

#ATAC All Tories are Hunts #GTTO Get The Tory Out

#ARAB All Reform are illegitimate. #KRO Keep Reform Out

#GLO Get Labour Out. Punish the Red Tories for being the same as the Blue Tories.

If you don't vote at all, you will just get more of the same. Or worse.

@Gaudy I vote green locally. I voted Labour to #GTTO which worked. But they didn't finish the job. And now I hate them (and myself!) for them turning into Red Tories. I was briefly a Labour member until disgust with their Brexit views forced me to cancel.

I desperately want PR so I don't have to keep making these choices. But PR has it's own problems. In the UK, it would probably fuel the extreme right as much as bring back a real Centre-Left.

The MSM stories about the Rise of Reform UK Ltd are terrifying. We need to #GTTO but also #KRF (Keep Reform Out).

> The breakdown of Reform voters found that they were a coalition of newer, more moderate voters and “radical young men” inspired by the likes of Elon Musk, as well as older groups of Conservative and working-class voters opposed to immigration.

Oh my daze. “radical young men inspired by Musk" !?!? And Russian bots.

This #RightWing #Labour government is turning out more or less as expected 😔

- Attacking migrants
- Economic oppression: taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/0

Though a slight improvement on #Israel policy, responding to the #independent voters:
- UNWRA funding restored
- UK withdrew objection to #netenyahu #ICC case
- *Perhaps* reconsidering arms exports theguardian.com/world/article/

The #GTTO Labour voters who failed to reject #WesStreeting, for example, have something to answer for.

#UKPolitics is moving away from populism and going back to listening to communities

I'm feeling optimistic with the massive win by the #GreenParty alongside all fellow country people who #GTTO

#Labour face many challenges, but will be so much less damaging than the Tories who destroyed our country

We will not be divided by hate and injustice.

We will stand together to reunite and tackle the global #ClimateEmergency with all people of the world.

The UK no longer looks in, but outward
