If you want it's worth thinking about this sort of thing in places where this sort of thing is what's happening. Especially if you are new to the area and aren't used to this.

@WinstanN69 You are mistaken. We are talking about the places where anything else besides a Green vote helps the Conservatives. Maybe you can't see the graph?

@RobinLaRoca @sianberry Can describe a person (that's rude) or an action or belief (that's an acknowledgement that one wouldn't repeat that with better information). Doesn't imply you couldn't understand what's wrong with it.

@RobinLaRoca @sianberry But I heed the advice. I actually don't think it was idiotic to vote for Brexit. I wouldn't have said Brexit voters held an idiotic belief, because apparently serious well educated people had given them good reasons to believe it was for the best. So it was a reasonable belief.

A sign stuck in a hedge that's been sliced off by a farmer who votes Conservative. Vote Conservative to have the hedges hacked to nothing and sewage in the streams.

@RobinLaRoca @sianberry I deliberately didn't call anyone an idiot. We all do idiotic things. That doesn't make us idiots. Doing idiotic things is ill advised. Doesn't make you an idiot.

@RobinLaRoca @sianberry It's fine to vote Labour if Labour is what you believe in. But to hold your nose and vote Labour, because you think you have to, is idiotic in this situation, isn't it?

This is where I was working today. There are still people on twitter (and a very few on the doorstep, though not many in Suffolk) who idiotically believe that you have to vote Labour to avoid Tory, or that Green is a wasted vote. PS it's not just Suffolk that's like this.

RT @13sarahmurphy: The real Sunak week:

~praised Raab for resigning
~failed to support civil servants
~took nurses to court
~voted to let water companies to keep dumping sewage
~voted to traumatise asylum seekers and defy human rights law
~confirmed his far-right values

Nothing to be proud of.

@Jam_mil73 @wilmabaxter @BladeoftheS Yes and out of that they have to maintain and repair the old buildings and heritage gardens. The grant barely covers the heating.

RT @Jam_mil73: @wilmabaxter @BladeoftheS The crown estates make £320 million a year.

£240 million of it is given to the exchequer.

£80 million to the monarch.

That’s 75% of the revenue generated given to the state.

Tempted to move to Wales. Or Scotland.
RT @dave43law: In a major bonus for any of my followers from Wales - 30p Lee Anderson says he would not move there due to the Labour Government.
If there was ever a motivation to vote Labour that has to be it
