Entirely why I think Gorton and Denton is shaping up to be one of the most significant by-elections of the last decade and already the most tedious.
Looking at the Gorton and Denton contest is like a foretaste of a GE where voters are given multiple messages, ‘only X party can win here’ based on - often - relatively poor data and bewildering changes in the national picture 🤯. I’m concerned about how we could provide decent information.

This, for me, is the decisive argument for getting rid of FPTP: voters, activists, and strategists will effectively be going into the next election blind, and a lot of the results will feel basically random

I'm sorry but it's very funny to me that the legislature of a G7/P5 country of 70 million is currently drafting the "Fuck This One Guy in Particular Act of 2026."
Also, imagine tolerating a system of privilege so entrenched you need to rewrite centuries-old rules just to get at one douchebag.

Heyyy, heated rivalry
got me thinking about how things turned as cold as the rink and we batted each other away like a puck. We both got injured body checking one another. I see my goals more clearly now, we could have been made a great team. You don't have to reply but maybe we could face-off?
