Ever wonder if any one organization could be supported by MOST liberally-minded citizens, if it had a coherent plan for restoring what worked in the American experiment? What would it take to break people out of their cynicism, sloth, and disinterest in working for real change?
#UnpopularOpinion, if people in #USA & #UK on here are serious about 2024 elections & not losing to Republicans & Conservatives in 2024 they need to spend more time talking to swing voters.
That means either getting them in here, on #Fedi, or talking to them where they are.

People said the exact same thing to me about Blair. I can't vote for Blair. He's too like the Tories. Politicians are all the same. Blair is a red tory.
Parties are more than just their leader. Take for example emergency food parcels, Tories are not twice as bad, not 5 times, not 10 times, not 20 times, not 50 times.

In Scotland there's a real alternative vote in the SNP.
BTW what the chart is showing is that labour did an excellent job removing food insecurity after Tories. That the 2008 GFC had an impact worldwide but the disgusting explosion in poverty & food insecurity comes from policy changes once Tories implemented new practices, DWP, PiP, DLA, IAS/ATOS, WCA.
#TLDR letting Tories win, creates misery & gets people killed.

If you're allergic to mushrooms, you can do the similar by replacing the mushrooms with lentils. Especially green, black, brown types that will keep more structure. Give them some cooking time and have a kettle of boiled water handy (or steal from your pasta pan etc) as the lentils will need a bit of time to swell up with enough available liquids, tamari spices etc before you add the veggies at end.
@Thebratdragon
Try cooking lentils, (no oil) in plenty of tamari and spices, veggy stock works great too, they absorb all the flavours and taste pretty damn yum that way :D
