If you're registered to vote in a currently-in-the-EU country, do! It's tomorrow! (or some time in the next few days, depending on country). For anybody other than that hypocrite Farage, or that thug who calls himself Tommy Robinson! The lower the turnout, the higher the risk that the extreme right get in. Remember it's proportional, so if your usual preference is usually out of the running, it's different for this one.

I'll be voting Green, which hits the trifecta: they're pro-Europe, explicitly anti-austerity (unlike any of the other pro-Europe parties in my region), and of course, best in class on climate change. My ward just elected the first Green councillor in my borough, and nationally they've got about 3 times as many councillors as they had, so they're on a roll.

I feel the phrase "use it or lose it" hanging in the air more than usual ... (Thanks [personal profile] rydra_wong for the reminder to post.)

I've already done my postal vote and voted Lib Dem. I hope there's a decent turn out but I fear people are just jaded with the whole political scene at the moment.
