Cool, it sounds like we are in agreement generally. Perhaps I could have phrased it better, but in my opinion they are not a socially liberal party. Although is “wishy washy” policies better or worse than nothing?
Better than nothing is a bit of a bug bear of mine. We are constantly told labour are better than nothing (ie tories).
If i am starving and need 2000 calories a day, would i rather have 1500 or 1200 calories? Obviously I’d rather have 1500. However this kind of comparison is too simplistic .
I would be right to ask why there isn’t enough calories. Taking the 1500 only legitimises that deal, when its clearly insufficient. I know both will starve me eventually so clearly i have to get those extra 500 calories. The only option is to reject both options and demand the 500 calories.
