Can anyone remember what the various Lib Dem positions on Brexit have been and when they flopped from one to the other? It would be useful for countering the idea of them being the party of remain or just generally the idea that they are in any way trustworthy (especially when they were asking for a referendum with no deal on the ballot).

Jessflaps funding nearly at £20k. I hate this world. Actually, is that legal. Dont you have to be able to prove provenance of funds? I'll wet myself if she's committing electoral fraud. And not just because I'm on diaretics.

And I complained Because I was not a Communist Then they supported the Socialists And I complained Because I was not a Socialist Then they supported the trade unionists And I complained Because I was not a trade unionist Then they suddenly did an 180 on opposing discrimination and came for the Jews This is a real thing And should be taken seriously

Basically, if a seat is Tories 8000 Labour 7000 If it's a "Labour recommended" tactical vote, it will say it's only 1000 votes to flip. If it's for Lib Dems, it will say something like "it's only 300 votes to flip!"

Aramoro posted:I'm not sure I follow exactly. You shouldn't call out TERF's because it doesn't directly affect you so it just looks like some sort of virtue signalling? I'm not trying to dig at you, just not sure I follow. I mean, there is a thing where people pretend to care about someone's bigotry just as a way to bash them without actually caring about the issues, which is Bad. (I remember once a certain threadbanned poster mocking Wings Over Scotland's transphobia once, only to later be a similar rear end in a top hat in other threads about trans people.) As A Trans, so long as you can check with yourself that you are bringing it up out of it being a main source of your disgust at [person or people you're mocking] rather than just wanting to find some random thing to insult them with, I don't personally have an issue with it. Promoting transphobia by relentlessly posting every transphobic thing a person says while trans people are around reading a thread is A Thing, but so long as you're not relentlessly posting nobody twitter randoms it's probably within the remit of the thread to bring attention to when prominent politicians are being shameless assholes. The SNP's transphobia problem is interesting as, similar to a lot of issues that aren't independence, there's a split between different factions of the party, and the actual TERF contingent seems to be something of a minority. (Anyone actually close to the internal workings of the SNP feel free to expand on this.) Sturgeon herself seems to be in favour of trans rights, but is also willing to make noise and delay stuff to seem as if she's listening to the bigots. This might prevent big splits in the short term but at this stage looks more likely to disappoint both sides. The TERF lot see anything short of actively rolling back trans protections as a capitulation to the dastardly trans lobby, and as a member of the dastardly trans lobby myself it's obvious this is making their criticisms look legitimate when they could, y'know, actually make a stand on something, anything. Yea, verily, you were so focused on fighting the Tories that you didn't fight... The Tories Within. [dramatic music, lightning bolt]

Had a meeting last night to discuss election campaigning in our constituency. The election address alone will wipe out all our funds. And Leadsom has a 22,000 majority. And we have local elections in may which we can maybe nick a few seats. But won't with no money. gently caress.

Tesseraction posted:I believe they don't want to post news about the SNP being lovely TERFs in here because it means trans UKMTers have to read/experience it somewhat that - I don’t know, it feels like I’m using trans people’s oppression to score easy points. i don’t normally mind easy points, but it feels ghoulish in this case - particularly with trans comrades who live in Scotland. my Posting Brand has a kind of flippancy that makes me feel disrespectful. it might also be that it makes me genuinely angry and as such I struggle to post in jest about it, idk.

Thanks for reminding me to make my first bet since... well, the last election. Best I could find was 16/1 for an overall majority, so £340 for £20. If you fancy a flutter get in quick, I'm sure the odds will be shortening rapidly. Now to find a seat calculator so I can take a punt on the UKMT spreadsheet. Suggested charity will be https://www.airserv.org/, the non-religious version of the MAF.

You're allowed to collect for your CLP directly and now is going to be a good time for it as the people's coffers are wide open right now. Do some social media requests for donations to the country at large, speak to large Momentum groups near you, organise a canvassing and fundraising day with a ticketed event in the evening.

On Betfair you can set odds and wait for a taker. Took market odds for no overall majority and Labour, with a bet on Tories at 5:1. If odds shorten to 5:1 against Tories I am guaranteed a profit.
