If we don't bother to vote, we risk letting extremists decide who represents us.
The Hard Right have been flooding SM with lies, propaganda, gaslighting, “mistruths”, conspiracy theories etc for years.
Facebook, for ex, does NOTHING when you report it.
There is no accountability at all!

Then you end up voting for reform
There's three parties with right-wing policies:
The Tories are too far-right for some, yet too centrist for many right-wingers.
Labour appear "anti-woke" but are taxing everything that isn't nailed down.
Reform far-right - but promising milk & honey.
Sadly.
He's squeamish about Brexit because it was a failure that should never have happened. Labour should be hammering that message all day every day.
Not going to cut it in St Helens that I'm afraid
The issue is that Brexit is still v divisive up here, and people are very keen on it, though less keen on admitting they voted for it
Leave the consequences of Brexit to stew unchallenged, and allow him to chip away on other topics where there's a yarn to be spun, and he'll spin better than Labour.
I don't think you can ignore the fact that people who like Brexit have successfully managed to ignore reality for years and though its less and less each year, I suspect its still enough (plus immigration concerns) to seriously damage Lab in the North and Midlands
A load of knuckle dragging neanderthals who believe the crap churned out by the right wing rags.
The place is a shit hole, and reform will do nothing to change that!
Complacency ?
