Tactical Voting

Hello - not interested in any political debates etc, but I’m just trying to understand who the tactical vote would be to stop reform taking control? I’m new to the area and I’m hearing different things from different people…

This.

Actual racists voting for whichever party aligns with them won't care if your family came here 5 years or 50 years ago and whether you integrated or not, they'll say they won and tell you to go back where you came from

Exactly. You know how racists stop and take the time to ask a brown person their immigration status and their religious beliefs before subjecting them to abuse? Me neither.

Yep. I have to explain this shit to way too many people, even family, which is weird since they're all more mixed race than me despite them all turning out white and me looking like my great grandad and being the only brown person in the family.
