I’m not a staunch Labour supporter let alone a member, and even I can see that not voting strategically each and every time there’s an election just gives more power to the Tories. I’m in a marginal and I voted Labour in the last election regardless of what I thought of Corbyn.

There comes a point when you're essentially voting for the red team out of tribalism. Labour really need something better than being slightly less shit than the blue team*

*Although I'd argue that doesn't really apply anymore, with Starmer trying to outflank the Tories on the right.

Voters really need something better than choosing the slightly less shittest party.

Electoral reform is needed so that 35% of the national vote doesn't give a parliamentary majority, however, as it never suits the party in power to do this then we're fucked.
