I assume most people here already are registered but just in case: here’s the link.
I’ve pinned this post to the instance.
One of the best things we can do is encourage everyone to get to get registered, and get ready to vote.
Congrats Frank, please don’t change the title to something horrid while I’m busy :)
Too late, I’ve already changed it to say VOTE BINFACE.
(I am, of course, kidding.)
OOI, how do I say “I’ve seen and read this, I don’t need it at the top of my feed every visit any more”?
Check stopthetories.vote to see who you need to vote for to get the bastards who destroyed this country out. It will update in a day or two.
On that site:
Our electoral system needs upgrading, and if you join us then collectively we can influence the next government to upgrade our democracy so that every vote counts.
It’s extreme wishful thinking to expect the next Labour government to change a voting system that just gave them a landslide to one that would have them governing in coalition.
And also remember to look up the list of accepted photo ids and get yourself set up with at least one that you can take with you to the polling station. https://www.gov.uk/how-to-vote/photo-id-youll-need
And don’t forget you’ll need photo ID now.
An acceptable form of ID https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/voting-and-elections/voter-id/accepted-forms-photo-id
/u/GreatAlbatross any chance of adding that to the post or pinning /u/HowManyNimons comment?
Please vote to protect trans people.
I’m assuming this means vote against the Tories but please correct me if I’m wrong.
I have no dog in the fight with this topic but I will be voting against the Tories (in part at least) because they have sought to deflect attention from their failure and contempt for the public by using trans issues as a false enemy and decoy, massively wasting political resources and demonising my fellow countrymen/women/people for their own gain. Fuck em.
That is good you’re recognizing the situation as the divide and conquer strategy as it is.
Trans rights are humans rights. If the Tories can continue to strip away at ours they will come for everyone’s eventually.
Also by supporting trans people you’re advocating for increased freedom of personal expression.
For sure; that’s why it pisses me off so much. At least with traditional bogeymen like Putin/Covid/inflation/Bin Laden etc it’s a plausible ‘other’. Trans people are UK citizens and we drink with them at the pub. It’s literally an attack on our own cohort, to our own detriment.
Protect trans people by voting tactically against the Conservative candidate. The Conservatives have completely bought into waging a culture war and trans folk and immigrants are public enemies according to their current ideology. It distracts the voters from 14 years of self-inflicted or worsened-by-policy economic catastrophies. Please don’t “both sides” this.
