If a general election was called, who would you vote for?

Did this thread start in Feminism chat? It may have done and I just missed it, I thought it was in regular old chat?

It appears feminism has gone so far left, it's now hard right 🤦🏼‍♀️

I would potentially vote Tory but when I wrote to my Tory MP about the issue of male sex offenders in the female estate he wrote back some waffly nonsense about having to treat everyone with respect and that there was no evidence that trans women were causing any problems in the female estate. When I wrote back saying there wouldn't be any evidence because the data is not being collected he ignored me. The Tories have had the opportunity over years to implement the single sex exceptions and have failed to do so. I think They are slowing up the damage done by gender ideology but they are leaving all the hard work to women's organisations and individuals which is cowardly. There are obviously a few Tories who do care and who speak out about this issue and I am grateful for them, I do think that they are making a difference. I can't see myself voting for a party that doesn't recognise my biological sex so that's Labour, Lib Dems and Greens. I live in a Tory safe area anyway so it makes little difference how I vote so I think I might just pointlessly spoil my ballot with a Woman: AHF sticker.

*wouldn't really

Moderate and fairly on-the-fence Democrats voted for Biden thinking that he would really implement all the staunch gender policies he told them would.

Literally the first thing he did was scrap Title 9 rendering Women's rights null and void.

Yes, it's a single issue for me. The most important for a whole range of reasons.

I wouldn't vote Labour now because of their attitude towards women and because the left now seems to look down on working class people, and also because of their authoritarian tendencies which I find quite alarming.

I wouldn't vote Conservative because I disagree with pretty much all their policies. I don't trust them either not to backtrack on self ID if they thought there were votes in it.

I can't even be bothered to expend words on why I wouldn't vote Lib Dem or Green.

I would probably vote SDP if they fielded someone, or for a sensible independent.
Failing that I guess I'd have to spoil my vote - I'd be sad about that but I wouldn't feel guilty.

I've voted Labour and Plaid Cymru before but worry about their stance on women's rights - but there's other things I have massive issues with.

It's a Labour council and a Labour Welsh Government - so education and NHS and other things are Labour control and frankly looking more dire every day.

The Local Labour MP doesn't seem to have been very visble at all and seems like rest of Labour very complacent. I do feel this area and the votes here have been taken for granted - so I will look at the second party here which last time was conservative - if it's a decent candiate I'll vote for them despite thinking Boris's government is bumbling mess at best.

I'm in a safe Labour seat.

If there was a candidate I would vote SDP. If not, Tory. It's a single vote issue for me.

I'm hoping that Boris is dumped from the party by the next ejection and Lis Truss might be in his place. Maybe wishful thinking but I've got to daydream.

I think if we could all agree to just not use dehumanising names and threats, that would be a good starting point.

Some of the parties are fighting back from the inside - this is the Lib Dems self-organised "voice for women". The genderwoo misogynists hate it.

I live in a Tory safe seat. I don't really feel my vote matters. However I normally vote lib dem/ Green.
There is no obvious party.

I live in a constituency with a current cabinet member as an MP. Last election he had 4k more votes than the labour candidate, and 20k more votes than third place.
So I’d vote labour.

I think Declare is a false flag working for the Tories. Must be.

How mature you are Declare

Labour supporters put me off their party almost as much as their MPs and policies do.

And you must have missed my post where I said I would spoil my ballot - again.

Anyway, I shall ignore any more abusive, senseless posts from you.

Conservative.

Boris and Brexit Derangement Syndrome.

Safe Conservative seat here, with a popular MP, so my vote wouldn't make any difference. But I won't vote for Labour until the leader begins to support the female sex, cervix's and all....
Hopefully all the parties will elect a leader with a brain before the next election, so that we get a choice....

Can you stop with the dehumanising, threatening bullshit, now, please?

Tory.

After years of campaigning and voting labour.

They are still just about clinging to reality.
Not everything is:
Racist
Misogynistic
Transphobic

And thinking it is doesn't solve anything.

And labour would love more covid restrictions, to keep us all 'safe'.

I don't want any political party directing my speech, removing my freedom to keep me safe, or denying biological reality to be kind.

The Tories are a mess but at least they've not gone entirely batshit crazy.

What the hell has happened to political discourse

It died the day Boris Johnson was elected as our PM.
