On the progressive left, Greens (UK wide) and in Wales and Scotland Plaid Cymru and SNP respectively. You could also include the Liberal Democrats but they have "some issues". On the right, Reform (the latest incarnation of Farage's ego). Numerous other minor parties and "independent" candidates usually standing on local issues
The UK-wide system is heavily weighted against these.
@ChrisWere It's an odd one. The absolute net zero 0f 2045 still stands, I understand, but the cutting by 75% by 2030 is abandoned. Will they keep kicking that can down the road and suddenly discover they have one year left to ditch all carbon?
@Henrysbridge I gotta be honest, I don't think I've seen close to the political will - from any government - to deal with our carbon targets/climate change. Sadly I'm a little bit doomer on this, although I wish I wasn't.
@fkamiah17
It's frankly outrageous that someone who claimed, at one point, to be a 'human rights' lawyer, has such contempt for human rights and the ECHR. #RedTory for sure 😡
@fkamiah17 Why the surprise? It should be clear now that he is not willing to change anything at all. He just expects people to vote for him just because he cannot do more damage than the Tories (which is true), and because the first-past-the vote system prevent us to vote for rel change.
@juanignaciogil Me? I'm not remotely surprised - unlike a couple of the replies I got "what, so you want five more years of Tories?" 🙄
As if that's not what we're getting anyway.
