Think about the consequences
MADAM – Walking up Stroud High Street I have seen a poster telling me I do not need to vote tactically on May 7, I can vote for what I believe in. This is true, but what will be the consequences?
If I believe in a just, peaceful and sustainable society, I may be tempted to vote Green, but what would be the consequences?
Probably giving more chance of a win to Neil Carmichael, with David Cameron as prime minister, and an ever more unjust and warlike society, with a government that talks of ‘green crap’. I’d urge everyone not to vote tactically, but to vote consequentially, to consider the consequences of their vote.
