I’m abstaining in the next election so far. I will not vote conservative as long as that clown is still in charge, and I’d rather sell an organ than vote Labour.

If I were able to vote in the next election I'd vote for conservative (even with boris in charge) because they are the lesser of 2 evils.

Not sure how much influence Bojo has on councillors, can't imagine it would be much.

Britain is as bad as the US for Democracy.. two parties who are nearly identical

Look at France, you got Macron, Le Pen, Jean-Luc Mélenchon.. two of those frontrunners are very different to your typical Western elite politician.

That's not true, councils are made up of representatives of 14 political parties and over 2,500 independents.

Tory party anti-White globalist scum..

No different than Labour really.

If war breaks out, I hope they don't expect me to be drafted. Why would I fight for a country who is anti my people? they're the one's guilty of treason, for long ago the elites betrayed White British people. They want me to die against Russia? forget it.

As far as I'm concerned the British government are our enemy.

I dont think councils have army's to draft you to.

wow you only have two candidates

Mad stuff, why don't you run?

*edit, realise you've missed the cut off now, but why didn't you? Did you think there would be other candidates?

Do you mean in general? I mean we’re basically in a two party state anyway, unless you have some preconceived idea about a Lib Dem resurgence.

At a state level yes

Well there are over 2,500 independent councillors, ie well over 10% of the total. Don't need to be aligned to a party. There are more independent councillors than Lib Dems for example and more than a third of the number of Conservatives.

That has historically surprised me that the Lib Dems have been able to do much better at local level than National. I’ve noted that before. Why do you think this is? Just out of interest?
