Dear all,
We at Chesham and Amersham - ForwardTogether (@chilterns4) have set up #facebook pages for supporters of a #ProgressiveAlliance#DemocraticAlliance to meet/talk/organise. We have started with marginal constituencies, plus where we were asked to do so. #FBPA#FBPPR (1)
Please do join these pages, if you live in these areas or nearby! Please also let us know (message me or @chilterns4) if you would like us to set up a page in your constituency or area.
*and NB please add, as I want to hear about any I've omitted.

I ‘m not sure people ‘get’ tactical voting. In principle we understand the idea of not voting for our first choice in order to influence the parliamentary maths.
