Tactical voting is difficult for many to swallow, a case of settling for the least worst not best option and I can hear Labour friends screaming their party’s the most progressive alliance in political history and I should remember the Liberal Democrats in 2010 jumped into bed with Conservatives.
Both are valid points, but the truth is May and the Cons will win again unless people vote with their head not their heart.
In all elections over the years - local, European and Westminster - I’ve voted for a total of six different parties and political independents.
My dilemma will be agonising on Thursday in London’s Richmond Park and North Kingston constituency.
Do I vote for the most inspiring, hope- Labour candidate: Chris Matheson Majority: 93 Swing that could lose the seat to the Tories: 0.1%
