Saying one party is bad doesn’t mean that others aren’t, like it’s somehow mutually exclusive. Although, pointing out another is bad too doesn’t negate the evils of the other. Lesser evils and whatnot.
True. I and I understand pointing out the Tories as they’re in power. However by not pointing out that Labour are just as bad we run the risk of fooling ourselves that these kinds of infringements to our civil rights will go away if we get the Tories out.
Mate i got no idea what a torie is
Tory = Conservative (the political party in power)

Wait until they hear what has been passed by the majority of the Australian states

Blocking roads, and stopping ordinary people from going about their day, is a very ill thought out way to protest. It doesn’t affect the people making the decisions, it merely punishes the least powerful members of society.
And it will inevitably turn the public against you, as we see here.
