Something interesting to me about this election is the growing calls on social media for tactical voting. Tweets and posts everywhere showing who to vote in which area to block a Tory majority.

Surely the whole leave vote will be using tactical voting to prevent a Labour or remain coalition majority.
Leave means leave.
 
This tactical voting malarkey has been around as long as I’ve been on Facebook. Fat load of **** all it’s done so far.
My very first election was in October 1974. I was a tactical voter, it is nothing new, even before Facebook existed.
 
It's a brexit election Toasty, let's face it, this is the second referendum, let's get it done and back Boris.

Surely all the remainers 48% will vote Lib Dem and when you take off all those old white racists who voted to leave who have since passed away, then add on to the remain side all the new voters who were to young to vote last time. It's a shoe in for Jo Swinson isn't it?

But I don't want to back him, he's a lying, incompetent arsehole. I don't want somebody like that in charge of the country I live in. He keeps saying "let's get Brexit done" as if that will make it go any quicker or make the shambles any easier to look at. But the EU have said it won't be fully done until 2021, so he's already going to have to admit that 2020 will be full of the **** he said it wouldn't be.

It is, in effect, a total clusterfuck. It was, in my opinion, a totally stupid thing to put to the public of this nation. The same public who voted to name a boat "Boaty McBoatface" and on average spend nine times more money in a McDonald's than they do at a National Park.

To quote the great Super Hans: "People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis, you can't trust people."

Did Coldplay invade Poland?

Can't beat a good dictatorship. Gets things done, might be the wrong things but done all the same.
 
And that is going to over ride a lot of other issues for a lot of voters.

A lot of people are sick to the back teeth, and want to leave the EU and move on.

It’s funny as from my experience, most people who want to ”get brexit done”, the only effect they’ll see from it is less money in their own pocket.

And a lot of people don't want to leave based on a referendum that was nearly four years ago. Old data, get new data. But apparently new data is undemocratic. Apparently.





It isn't.
