Yo, it's voting time in the UK. Go out there and vote. I'd recommend Labour.

If you need more convincing, I'll leave you with this editorial by VICE UK:

I cannot understate enough how many undecided voters there are this late in the election, please talk to your friends and family, talk to them about why you're voting Labour and ignore this ridiculous boycott.

Observing a YouTube boycott that has no organisation and no real base of support during the final days of an election that's hugely important internationally

Sharing videos with your undecided voter friends about how the tory Brexit is a sham like this one:

and get a government that will strengthen working class people in the UK and in the global south.

@mutantstd Yep, this is perfect.

(Seriously, thank you for the goodies!)

You have until midnight on Tuesday to register to vote!

You can vote if:
- You're a UK, Irish or Commonwealth Citizen
- A UK citizen living abroad for 15 years or less

It would mean so much to so many people and it would really help change Brtiain for the better if you could spare 5 mins to register and spare a little time to vote on the 12th December.

If you can't make it to a polling station, register for a postal vote!

You have the ability to stem and reverse the tide of suffering of millions of people.

It's really upsetting to recall these traumatic moments, but I feel like shit like this is really important to stress why this is so important.

You may engage in mutual aid, but you know, your vote (or also volunteering if you have the time) is also a form of mutual aid, especially at this moment. It would prevent so many people from suffering and experiencing the ongoing trauma of things like this.

It's the socialism or barbarism election.

If you don't have a personal reason to vote, or you feel like you have some duty to abstain, please consider the lives of people like me who have suffered a lot from Tory governance:

- 2016: Had to desperately figure out a pathway to British Citizenship due to terrible new housing/employment laws

- 2018: Had my benefits removed because of Tory quotas and health assessments, struggling to survive ever since
