[Politics] Has anyone here made a recent donation to a political party?

[Zeberdi]

Has anyone donated money to any political parties in the past 12 mnths? It can include membership fees or one off donations - small or large.

Would be interested to know how many NSCers have a strong enough affiliation with any party that they have donated either membership funds or casual donation(s) .

(Sorry not a very well thought out poll - it probably could be much better worded - there’s two responses, either yes or no and for how much if appropriate - I know, it’s late. )

The vote is set not to be on view publicly so your name won’t show up

Why on earth would I donate my hard earned cash, for which they bloody tax the hell out of me for, to any of the current crop of politically, morally and ethically inept bunch of cretinous, imbecilic morons that currently masquerade as Politicians in this fvcked up country?

And yes I mean all parties.

Just some are bigger imbecilic morons than others.

Especially having to live in this country that successive Govts have screwed up.

 

[Weststander]

Never and no plans to.

Support about 15 charities instead, some since my early 20’s.

Interesting R5 interview with the brilliant Paul Johnson of the IFS yesterday. Effectively the two main parties in or out of power are never honest with the public about taxation and spending, moreover their actions in government follow that. Holding back the UK.

Your poll is flawed in that you can select two options but not 3, so I couldn't for example select YES - TORY - £500+

I did say it was late

I’m stoked about the news today that we are considering Hürzeler - I’m excited that tonight at Labour HQ, the feeling we could beat the Lettuce is becoming a realistic possibility … It’s Friday night/Saturday morning - I think I have insommnia. I’ll edit the poll.

I’m confused, what day is it today?

Yep, A$50 per month to the Socialist Equality Party https://www.wsws.org/en/special/pages/sep/australia/home.html which is part of the wsws.org I doubt we will ever have a proletariate dictatorship, but I like reading their analysis of current events and history.

For the charities or for you so you can shoe horn it into conversations about other things

The term “this” is often overused, however….

I'll be donating to Faiza Shaheen in Chingford. I knocked on over a hundred doors canvassing for her in the last election and hope to pitch in again this time.

 

[brighton terra]

I’m a card-carrying member of the Labour Party and I regularly make donations to help the cause!

Led by Donkeys has been the only politically (mischief?) inspired org that has had my money.

Wish you the very best in campaigning for her and against the two cheeks of same backside.

Disappointed with some of the ‘they are all as bad as each other’ sentiment on here - don’t be fooled!!!

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

I did donate recently to the Green Party of Cornwall. I probably won't vote for them, because FPTP is silly, but I do want them to get their message out and continue to build. Its hard for smaller parties who will lose their deposit in many cases, so need even more money than the bigger guys.

Well I might vote for them because I'm pretty sure the Tories are toast here, still weighing it up
