Voting in the future

Trollslayer

Have you considered another approach, like joining your local Conservative Party to see if you can help to remove this MP, and replace him or her with one who is more aligned with their voters?

A democratic way to do it.

Other than this issue I quite like my local MP (I've met him).

If brexit doesn't happen I would rather spend my time campaigning for brexit for a party committed to it, than work with one that reneged on commitments it had made.

I'd even consider standing as a candidate if it came to it, rather than support a party I could no longer trust.

You think lobbying my MP isn't a democratic way to do it?

Fine, you keep trying to tell them that and see how it goes... which is what you are missing out on, i.e the actual practical reality we have to live, work and play in.

Why JC's labour of course. Imagine!

I would love not to and doing my best, but... PAYE. This is not america... yet.

That must be why the Libdems did so well in 2015! Nobody cared about them breaking manifesto commitments....

That proves the votes are cyclical. Libdem will probably do again well in a few years and ukip will not. People forget and align themselves to propaganda more than reality. Brexit is just one proof of that but Trump and Maduro are others. This is a global problem of rising nationalism that changed the way people vote. And nationalists have a way of terryfing the most vulnerable. But it’s ok, after brexit happens we can vote to leave the world so we won’t get any non-EU immigrants

Or you can choose to stop playing games and get involved. Brexit has just very clearly highlighted that there are many more interested in playing games, party politics and doing what they wanted to do anyway.

But hey people will be people. I’ll battle on with a few to stay honest amongst the many game players.
