They feed on toxicity, it’s the only way they know that gets the anger-produced adrenaline flowing through their veins. It’s addictive. Makes them feel alive and living, rather than festering in a rubbish-filled room dying a day at a time.

Mate, you’re not you when you’re hungry, eat a Snickers.

Most of my fellow countrymen are too thick to understand anything about this and couldn’t care less.

It’s an island of neanderthals and I hope I can get highly skilled enough to leave it.

And I believe comrade, that this country will not vote in a communist government. They’d sooner elect a right-wing fascist. Unless you’re within the inner circle of those who manage to overthrow the government in an armed revolution, as a free thinking intellectual you’d likely be shot against a wall.

Mate, we’re under a first past the post system, tactical voting matters to get the most damaging political force, i.e. the Tories, out of power and by a significant majority.

Anything remotely left of the Tories is better, even if it is Centre Centre Centre calling itself Left Labour.

Can you vote tactically for Lib Dem or Greens without risking more votes going to the Tories?

Not to mention the sewage they dump on them.
