Watching the Tory party conference and their lurch to the far right has got me thinking: what do moderate Tories do now?
Suppose you're right-wing in your politics, but not a fascist. The sort of person who might have been happy to vote for David Cameron.
Who do you vote for now? Do you feel politically homeless?
Sure, they could vote Labour, now that Labour has become a centre-right party.
But if you're a lifelong Tory voter, voting Labour must just seem wrong.

Police to get broader powers to restrict repeated protests
This article is infuriating but worth reading. Look at how #PalestineAction protests and fhe Manchester Synagogue attack are deliberately muddled together here, as a narrative and in policy.
This is dirty work - don’t fall for this! This narrative here is so wrong. Yet, as ever, it is so much easier to put it out there than to dismantle it and show why it’s wrong, what is being done here.

#DigitalID #UKPolitics No doubt it’s already been shared many times on Mastodon, but just in case: here is the petition you can sign against introduction of digital ID cards - over 2 million signatures already, in less than 2 days!

#DigitalID #UKPolitics i do not share this vision - I find it deeply chilling, depressing and worrying. Yet again it feels like we are going head on into what used go be dystopian science fiction.

I'm really startled by how bad your comms operation has to be to say something like this to the Scum while you're in Liverpool.

"Labour party delegates have voted that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza and should be sanctioned"
So, it is now the official policy of the Labour Party that Israel is committing genocide, while a Labour Government continues to arm the perpetrator of that genocide.

Larry Ellison envisions a surveillance state in which techbros rule. '“Citizens will be on their best behavior, because we’re constantly recording and reporting everything that is going on,” Ellison said in an hour-long Q&A during Oracle’s Financial Analyst Meeting last week.'
This is the guy who donated £257m to Tony Blair's institute and wants to use all our UK data to train Oracle's AI. Digital ID cards are a step.on the way.
