Sushi.
With a view to students.

They can choose to vote at uni or home if diff constituency.

I know several that have worked out which is the more marginal seat and voted there.

My polling station said they'd had a high turn out when I voted at 3 but we're thinking it could be so ppl can avoid going out on a dark wet night.

Re the 'C' word. I find that it's comparing someone like Johnson etc to a female body part the most offensive thing about it.

Let's find insults that don't insult an entire section of the population too.

(I do try to avoid insults such as 'dick' too for the same reason)

(re C word as an insult: as a beuterused individual I mostly use it it to mean 'bleeding pain/inconvenience' but am aware I'm probably a minority in that)

Hmm I wonder what C word you’re all talking about.

Corrupt?
Crooked?
Conscience-less?

Or worst of all..... Conservative *shudders*

I felt rather proud walking into the polling station with both my boys (18 & 21) who ate very engaged with politics.
Hope we get a good youth turnout, it’s a promising sign :-)

Praying the youth vote does something special but just dont think the turnout will be enough.

Think it will be about 12 seat tory majority unfortunately.

Name-calling will be called out, and Ad hominem will be frowned upon. :-) And whatabout-ery sits somewhere above responding to tone and below contradiction.

*** Last poll winner
