UK Labour are too Tory for me.
I’ve threatened that they’ve lost my vote. (edit)
On LGBTQIA, specifically trans rights.
On their plans for the NHS.
On their plans for health and wealth inequalities in the UK.
On their plans for the relationship the UK has with Europe.
They have to be less Tory to get my vote back.
It’s not acceptable that to not vote Tory, we have to settle for what they offer. They assume their position is acceptable.
If they correct their position, I’ll reconsider

At this point lib Dems are probably left of labour with their policies, given labours recent downturn
No, this is just untrue.
They are a centre-right party. They effectively represent Tories who didn’t want Brexit. They may talk a big game and make big promises, such as UBI. But they also made promises when they went into coalition with the Conservative party, and once in power they fell in line.
UBI isn’t even necessarily a leftist policy. Apparently Richard Nixon even considered it!
Just incredible that the Lib Dems are still trying this argument.
Apart from the reality of their platforms, Ed Davey was literally a cabinet member in a Tory government and was knighted for this service by a Tory Prime Minister.

Well the fact that when the Tories got a majority of their own they reversed most of what he did in office should be in an indication that he’s not actually one of them.
Right, so it should be alarming that labour has worse policies than that, right?
