So I think this is a thing, vote Green instead of Labour? then I hear 'hold your nose and vote Labour to get the Tories out' which makes a bit more sense even if you hate Labour but hate the Tories more, so my question is what will voting Green achieve? is it more of a protest vote or do you think if the campaign gains momentum...pun....they have a chance of forming a coalition with Labour, I am confused as to what voting Green will achieve... @The Slim Reaper

I'm not sure about it being a thing, but all I mean by it is that the numbers skew so heavily in labours favour, that there is absolutely no avoiding the impending landslide the tories have got coming their way in just over a months time, which means it's a truly rare election when it really is a free vote to vote our consciences. There won't be a coalition government this go round, but greens are going to be the only party that challenges the government (the lab one) on any of the issues around water, energy, or the environment as a whole, so setting them up for future elections to try and build some momentum (pun back at ya) is really important. To me, at least.

The greens aren't placed to do massively great things this election. They will pick up a couple of seats, with some quite major victories around Bristol, but the more people that don't vote labour, the better.. Labour underperforming is the best result to hope for, and might actually begin to hold starmer to account.

Oh I see, I think the electorate are going to be very disappointed in Labour, I hope I am proved wrong but I can't see much change coming
