If you've not been able to work out my political values by now, that's fine, but please don't accuse me of 'tying myself to a party' when I'm tied to none.

I was not kidding a few weeks ago when I said this election is the most one of my adult life, and I've voted in general elections since 1987. The threats to democracy, as well human rights, and basic existence via what's left of a welfare system that will result from a left loss are too significant.

Will those human rights be upheld, and will the needs of people to have a life of dignity be met, if this government is returned to office because some voters decided that their views on how a political party should campaign are more important than kicking out this government?
