Ghost of Hope
For most of my life I believed that voting for the lesser evil was the moral course of action. I'm not sure any more. I couldn't, for example, hold my nose and vote for Starmer. I would choke on my own vomit if I tried.
I think the principal is sound but there are limits. I can't vote for a transphobe even if they turned out to be a lesser transphobe than their main rival. And it's not at all clear that Starmer is that given his propensity to say whatever will get him elected.

@hollybrigstocke @grayface_ghost Lib dems under Davey are just as bad as Starmer's labour. They turn a blind eye at best and actively promote phobes and bigotry in places. The english greens were heavily TERF infiltrated during their leadership process, not that they were great before it. Davey is just another career politician that is interested in power and the status quo.
There are no major parties in england that would stand for trans people at all.

I can''t disagree with any of that. Not a fan of my MP Thangam Debbonaire either. Very sit on the fence terfy.
Not convinced by Carla Denyer of the Greens. Smiles but never has anything substantive to say. Never mentions trans. Never mentioned Brianna.
The Liberals have nothing to say.
Tories? *Thrrrrrrp*
Nobody to vote for really.

@grayface_ghost A known liar, a bigot and a man overseeing what is reported (see owen jones video on the independent investigation into anti seminitism) as extreme levels of racism within his party.
This is not the description of Bojo... It is a description of Starmer. Nobody saying he will be good for the country has anything but blind hope and the colour of his tie to back up their claims.
