For a majority of voters, the prospect of 5 full years of Boris Johnson, hard Brexit and austerity is truly chilling.

For a majority of voters, the prospect of a Corbyn government is truly chilling, whether on antisemitism or policy grounds.

FPTP could deliver either in theory.
But it could also deliver a hung Parliament that would by definition blunt the worst excesses of both these terrible choices.

For that to work, we need smart, widespread tactical voting.

There's still time, just, to pull it off.
I don't want to hear a word of Johnson worship. I don't want to hear a word of Corbyn worship.

Factually, numerically, what I said above is 100% true: neither side has a majority of electoral support.

That FPTP can put them in power regardless doesn't change that.
