@tomharris hhaa nah im joking dont worry

4 real tho i was one of those nick clegg tfangirl teens, the pre millifandom age

@roadrunner I voted lib dem in 2010, I think b/c I didn't actually know anything about politics at the time, everything I knew was about culture and I voted on how the parties 'felt'

@roadrunner Happily in the last two general elections I've voted labour in a a labour marginal (Southampton & Cambridge) and they've held, so that feels nice

@tomharris @roadrunner tbh I would've voted LD in 2010 just because Labour were still New Labourised and fuck that noise, while the LDs were a nice change from Germany's "liberals" (which are libertarians rather than liberals)

(also Cambridge's LD MP is a good man)

@roadrunner @tomharris Huppert being a good guy would be the main reason I'd be very torn now, given what happened with the LDs nationally post-2010 (but also given that Labour's Cambridge MP has been comically ineffective)

@theoutrider @tomharris @roadrunner huppert was the boy!!

@roadrunner @tomharris @theoutrider i was at the winter ale festival once with some pals and jules h was there and i said a bit too loudly "hey look it's julian huppert" and he heard and smiled and i smiled and he came over and i had to pretend not to be drunk while talking to julian huppert

he asked me what i was drinking and what i would recommend

a+ social interaction would interact socially again

@envgen @theoutrider @roadrunner i went to the winter ale festival this year and tbh the people there on the whole represent a kind of Englishness I can get behind

@theoutrider @roadrunner Yeah not voting for Hupert made me a bit sad this time round. My justification was that Cambridge is pretty affluent & having an extra number to prop up Corbs in Westminster was more important to me than having the best local MP (Zeichner seems a bit shit). If I was in a more hard-up constituency I probably would have voted for the good guy rather than whatever centre labour drone.
