"The election is the beginning, not the end" Featuring yours truly.

Well Plaid, Caerphilly! Congratulations on keeping Reform out of the Senedd. It's clear that tactical voting played a huge part in this election and we're proud to have led the effort here through our initial recommendation and subsequent awareness campaign. Our advice reached many times the margin of voters that defeated Reform, and shows the power we have when we work together for hope and change against hate and division. Our focus now shifts back to the smaller council by-elections that happen every week and of course the local elections next May where the fight against Reform will be a big one. Thank you again for lending your vote to stop Reform, a frustrating necessity under a broken voting system. - The team at StopReformUK.vote

The tactical vote in the Caerphilly by-election is Plaid Cymru - polls are indicating a VERY tight race between them and Reform. We're calling for all Labour, Lib Dem and Green supporters in the area to please lend your vote to Plaid this time to keep Reform out of the Senedd! stopreformuk.vote/senedd/caerphi…

Interesting … a version of tactical voting in America Btw I’m working on a big plan to hold any govt to account here …. Based on what we’ve learned about the POWER OF PEOPLE when they come together on a singular mission 👌🤔

Friends stateside, maybe someone you know needs @SwapYourVote to help them vote tactically this election? swapyourvote.org

@OpenRightsGroup I support much of this but please may I ask what need we see there is in, and benefit there would be to, recalling parliament?

'The Islamophobia, racism and anti-migrant violence we have witnessed on the streets of the UK represents the rot that has become normalised as part of our politics.' ORG has signed this open letter for Parliament to be recalled to protect all people and communities of colour.

This is quite funny. We did warn politicians about the consequences of age-gating. Suspect more chaos when they try and implement more of the Online Safety Act.

@Otto_English Weirdly I noticed this account today too (spreading unsourced salacious rumours about a major politician). Gone now.

I challenge it and it self destructs

So this is very weird. This account pops up out of nowhere and calls me a nazi for celebrating the end of the chaos

Evidence of the strong effect of an organised tactical voting bloc #GE2024 @MVTFWD @SwapmyVote

Repeal voter ID. It is a racist policy that serves no positive articulated purpose.

Bit of a rollercoaster but this is an interesting take from @iandunt - almost a vote swap with yourself ❤️🗳️🔀🗳️💡@SwapmyVote

seeing the results from France 🇫🇷 🥲

Nor should we forget that the government includes our first female chancellor, a 44 year old grandmother, a foreign secretary who once worked in KFC and a health secretary whose grandparents were in and out of prison. A very different perspective to the previous gov.

We’ve come a long long way together…

Superb chart here from @vin_viz that illustrates one of the key shifts that has brought us this election result: Reform is now the party for people who voted Leave. The Conservatives are the party for ... ?

We will close the Swap My Vote platform for #GE2024 at 2030 swapmyvote.uk Thank you all for your support! Forward, to a more representative democracy. #SwapMyVote #TacticalVoting

Thoughtful and challenging thread from @DMinghella ❤️💡

@SurrealThing I’m up in Cambridge, but quite often down there. Shall I ping you when there next?

@tdgme are you based in Brighton?

I’m swopping my vote through swapmyvote.uk to make sure it actually counts for something. A woman in South Devon will be casting my vote, I will cast hers in Barnet. I used this at the last General Election. It was founded by my friend Tom de G from Channel 4 days.
