Unlike the many previous elections I've experienced, this election is pivotal for the course of our country and maybe its very soul. #GE2019 #VoteLabourOnThursday #VoteLabour #VoteTactically
A Tory government led by an habitually lying, incompetent & cowardly man, who is at ease with the use of racist language, trying to push through a ultra laissez faire Brexit, could mean the start of a slow erosion of progressive non-racist values within the UK, which I dearlyā¦
ā¦cherish as an ethnic minority.
Just think if the United Kingdom had given into fear and not had hope after World War II, and voted in a Tory government opposed to the NHS, how things might have been much worse for ordinary people.

Tactical voting #CitiesofLondonAndWestminster
Polls & sites seem to suggest vote for Lib, not Lab - data shows there will be a Tory win without strong Lab movement to LibDems now.
In our strong Remain constituency, make your Remain vote count - however hard to cross that box.

A serious threat: Cities of London & Westminster will end up without an MP that reflects strong Remain constituency, by a split vote.
Most #tacticalvoting polls now advise LibDem @ChukaUmunna.
Get closer to another ref & deprive Johnson of a majority. Strong switching needed.

Whatever your usual voting habits, tactical voting really matters now.
It can stop a heavy Johnson majority - or unseat him/Raab.
This isnāt only about Brexit, but the country we become, as Johnson cracks down on the institutions that hold him to account. We can stop that.

UK according to Putin - Nine Russian business people who gave money to the Conservative Party, named in secret intelligence report on the threats posed to UK democracy, suppressed by Downing Street Boris Johnson.
Oligarchs & other wealthy Tory donors were included in the report.

You believe Corbyn is a Brexiteer. (*For this tweet*, let's say he is).
So you don't vote Labour despite them being the clear tactical choice in your area.
As a Result, Boris Johnson makes Brexit happen.
Who wins? Corbyn.
If you want to hurt Corbyn: Vote Labour!š

How stupid would you feel if you found out Corbyn had intentionally dragged his feet for 3 years before supporting a referendum so people like you would be so frustrated with him you wouldn't vote Labour, and therefore Brexit would happen?

To sum up...
Refusing to #TacticalVote for Labour because you believe Corbyn secretly wants Brexit is bat-sh** insane, because you'd be helping him get what you believe he wants: Brexit.

@SwapmyVote Alice lives in Town X. Sheās always voted for the Red Party, but they canāt win where she lives. If she wants a progressive MP to represent her, she needs to vote Yellow, because they can win. Itās not ideal.

@SwapmyVote Bob lives in Town Y. Heās a lifelong Yellow Party voter, but they donāt stand a chance in Town Y. The Red Party can potentially win if all progressive voters get behind them though. Heāll vote Red, although heās not that keen.

It's as simple as that.

Imagine it for a sec.
An election called to decide what to do next with Brexit. The majority vote NOT to go through with Brexit without a referendum but Boris Johnson becomes PM anyway and we have a decade of painful negotiations in DIRECT violation of the People's wishes.

Can you even begin to imagine what that would do to our country? Stuck for years, with our politics consumed by a divisive process the majority voted to avoid.
Or... You could #VoteTactically and avoid all that.
So @UKLabour claiming they can deliver Brexit next year without ātrashingā the economy or the NHS
This is simply not true
Plain and simple
It is a lie
If a Labour MP or PPC claims this, call them out

DON'T FORGET!
Jacob Rees-Mogg has a history of blaming working class people for not being able to survive the actions of rich people because rich people are 'better at managing' these things.

3. If you live in a one party seat, make your vote count by persuading someone living *elsewhere* to change their vote or to vote when they weren't planning to.
