greghove ๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐ณ๏ธโ๐actually I was redundant for 6 months had to claim UC. I got a new job but havenโt been paid yet. They make me have weekly job search phone calls to tell me jobs I need to apply for and my UC is reduced because I havenโt found work. But I have found work. Make it make sense!
What 'evidence', Dan? You're very keen on things being published, so why don't you publish what evidence you have, and then we can all assess its worth?
Or don't you want to do that for some reason? ๐ค (((Dan Hodges)))

Much better to be the 3rd or even the 4th party (but with an enlarged presence) in a hung/balanced HoC.
Q. What do Billionaires, Kings, Dictators and politicians who oppose ordinary people having meaningful votes have in common?
A. Do I really need to answer this?
We all deserve an equal voice. We all matter! Time to #GetPRDone so we all have a voice that counts.
Stats for Lefties ๐ต๐ธ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ YouGov This illustrates how massively FPTP distorts our democracy. No party should be able to gain an overwhelming HoC majority (nearly 83% of the MPs!) with a vote share of just 45%. Such a result would make the UK a virtual one party state! #GetPRDone

Labour shouldn't be given a disproportionate HoC majority and, even if there's a hung Parliament, Cons have alienated all potential coalition partners. So, if Lab fail to #GetPRDone , who will be to blame if Cons then regain unilateral power on a minority vote share in 2028/29?
