Thanks for answering! I'd love to discuss your values in more detail but this really isn't the place to do that.

For now, I'd definitely ask you to consider if supporting the current party (which as you note is antithetical to some of your values) might damage the country or move it too far away from your ideals?

I generally feel let down by all the major political parties, so I've been attempting to vote for whoever will do the least harm but it's so hard to figure that out these days :/

The problem is there's very few electable parties. I'm a fan of the Brexit Party but I doubt they'd ever get a real platform to get in. My only other options are protest votes, so all incentives point to the Tories. Being part of the party (rather than an outsider) at least allows me to influence it. Hopefully Labour bounces back, but as long as they stay on their current course, they're generally unelectable for us northerners.
