Beyond Selidor

I was blog-hopping and came across this post while searching for UK-election-related stuff - thank you for the much-needed dose of hope and optimism! I've encountered too many editorials in the last few hours proclaiming that Starmer is Basically a Tory and won't change anything and next time the fascists will get (back) in, and I was beginning to sink into despair - thank you for lifting me out of that!

I'm an ex-Cambridge scholar and last week I was visiting some old friends in Ely and East Cambridgeshire and had the chance to inform them of the best tactical voting option for the constituency (they were planning to vote Labour and hadn't realised the Lib Dems stood a better chance), so I feel glad to have played a small part in that victory, even though my gerrymandered safe Tory seat stayed Tory.
