Much of what seems impossible turns out to be quite possible when you get together to try anyway. A group of Parisian working women spent just a couple of days fundamentally changing the course of the French revolution in October 1789. Generations of people in South Africa and around the world fought apartheid there, even though change seemed impossible almost right up until it happened. So many examples of this kind of thing in history, most of them involving large numbers of supposedly powerless people getting together in the face of seemingly impossible odds. I believe that Andrew Feinstein has a real chance of beating Starmer in HSP. It just depends on whether his campaign can spread the word fast enough, especially now that the election is happening so soon. That'd be one absolutely amazing upset.
I've lived in Bristol nearly half my life. It's either green or labour here - the tories are non-existent. With labour moving away from the left, the greens genuinely have a chance of getting an MP here. You can take the left out of labour, but you'll never take the left out of Bristol ❤
Bristol my hometown! My MP, Kerry McCarthy, abstained on the Palestine ceasefire vote along with Thagnam Debbonaire last year so, f**k em. Will be voting Green as things stand. Labour, Tory, Lib Dem, any right/far right party 100% ruled out.
@@crhu319 Over simplified answer. Even under FPTP there are loopholes. It’s difficult to break up the duopoly, but that is not the same as impossible. Between 2010 and 2015, the SNP went from 6 seats to 56. Labour themselves, were a third party in the early 20th century. Before Liberal splits, propelled them up the pecking order. And why can’t the Greens do with the left, what the 57 shades of Farageism, has done with the right? Where the Tories feel compelled to pander to his tune, rather than the one nation Tories. ‘Lesser evilism’, has only served to perpetuate the rightward shift of the Overton window. The Corbyn experience, should have taught progressives, something out of left field, needs to be done. To break the monotony.
I’m from Bristol as well! Kerry McCarthy my MP. She abstained on the Palestine ceasefire vote last year along with Thagnam Debbonaire (another MP here). Voting Green most likely. Labour, Tory, Lib Dem 100% ruled out.
I'm in Westminster North, now Queen's Park and Maida Vale, and will be voting for the Green candidate. Have been voting Labour since my 18th year (just turned 37) but no more. Starmer and his gang have turned the party into a Tory B Team and I will never vote for Tories, no matter what their shade or colour.
I'm genuinely considering voting Green! A change is needed and I can't help but feel that Labour's gonna be Conservative Light if they come into power!
A change is needed, but you will not get a green government. They simply don't have enough support and can't gain enough seats under FPTP. I recommend voting tactically if you want to kick out the Tories.
@@moomin7461 no. I suggest voting tactically against labour, they are going to win anyway but if they win by a large margin they will claim its proof you should never be left wing so if you are left wing you should vote tactically against labour even if it means voting for the tories.
I'm a 70yr old Socialist, Therefore a Labour party member, But since Starmer's night of the long knives, I have only been going through the motions of paying my dues, Stunned to find my faith, Sold to the Billionaires, So, I think, I will now cancel, my Party membership, and vote for a independant pelican

Definitely voting Green. It's actually my natural political home, and I've voted for them before. I switched to Labour during the Corbyn years, voting for Labour in the last two general elections. I'm back to The Greens again now, for obvious reasons!
I'm in Kemptown, where Labour have just kicked out a leftie for no real reason, the only green mp right next door to us and the local green candidate hasn't been online at all since the election was called. This should now be a target seat. Hove has an amazing candidate and yet she doesn't even have a Facebook page. Peter Kyle as an awful right wing starmerite should be a target for us. If this is how the party is handling the local area of their only seat, im terrified. I'll be volunteering, but I don't just want to be clutching for Sian berry. I want us to be ambitious
I'm voting Labour, usually Lib Dem but voting Labour tactically to get the Tories out. A Green vote is REALLY risky I warn you, do you want 5 more years of the Tories? I don't hence my tactical vote. Also I see the Greens as a one trick party anyways, very much like the SNP, they have one thing and not really much else
Definitely voting Green in Norwich. The Tories have been wrecking and have further plans to wreck vital spaces for nature in Norfolk, and Labour are very unappealing at the moment. Lukewarm on the environment and social issues at best, with Starmer, Streeting etc… giving me the creeps. 🌿💚
@@kindmulberry7196 in Norwich south there’s absolutely no chance of a Tory MP. Also highly unlikely in Norwich North. No need for tactical voting in this city. Safe to follow your heart
After a lifetime of voting Labour I have joined the Green Party. I was deeply upset by Keir Starmer's treatment of Jeremy Corbyn; at that point I left the Labour Party. I joined the Green Party because it was the only one that spoke up for Gaza. To me that is a measure and indicator of integrity. I am looking for honest political leadership committed to working for social justice, the wellbeing of creation, international peace and the common good. The Green Party is the only cohesive political group in our country espousing those values.
Maybe you need to develop a conscience. Have you ever asked yourself what sort of person would indulge in adolescent fantasies of saving the World, like with sustainability for example?

Become? They've been a social democratic party since their inception, and social democracy is capitalism with a strong welfare system. They've become more neoliberal since Blair with the exception of the Corbyn years.
Right now, the ONLY realistic opposition vote, if you can't stomach Labour is the Greens. The prospect of Starmer, Reeves and Streeting sitting around the cabinet table smirking, fills me with a variety of emotions and none of them are positive ones.
As a Green member, I think we need Zack as our leader to get the message out, or at least Carla. The co-leader thing is optically weak, and sadly that's important to be a parliamentary powerhouse
One of the issues with the Greens getting their message out there isthe disparity in funding between tyem and the Tories and Labour. Tories and Labour have and are legally allowed to spend £37 million on election advertising etc. Greens are struggling to raise £400,000 to use on election materials. On the upside this does demonstrate their ability to manage money better with greater results.
💚💚💚💚 the only real option now. I'd look back to labour if they get back to what they're for instead of being red Tories. Keir needs to see he's scared of his base
Life long Labour voter and past party member but can no longer support or vote for them. I'm guessing there are quite a few like me out there too. Don't sell your soul and mindlessly vote Labour just to get the Tories out as thats what Starmer wants and the result will be we'll have another Tory government in all but name. Vote with your hearts and minds people. Vote Green.
Charismatic leaders are only required to suck up the populist votes. Politicians should rely on policies, not charisma. Charismatic leaders are often bad leaders. Johnson was popular - so what? Farage is popular - so what? Trump was popular - so what? Thatcher, etc etc

@jonahwhale9047 Don't disagree, but also nature is cruel whenever an animal eats another animal. We've always been omnivores. Humanity has gotten too big to survive on a hunter-gatherer basis so we've had to industrialise food production. Animal welfare standards should be as high as possible, but if you're prey then a bolt to the head is surely better than getting mauled or eaten alive by something? I agree animal suffering at the hands of humans for profit should stop (battery hens, mass cow sheds etc.), but I don't include (as close to) humane slaughter as suffering in the same sense. Like I said, nature is cruel and chickens/sheep/cows would be eaten by something else if it wasn't by us.

Like I said, nature is cruel and chickens/sheep/cows would be eaten by something else if it wasn't by us.
It not only young voters, I’m a a old voter, ex coal miner
I'm a member of the Green party the Green party can win we have more than 300 candidate standing
Go Greens I do like what they say. Because Labor is not the way.
The main media outlets simply don't invite the Green Party onto their shows enough - that's why Moya isn't 'feeling the message cut through'...
