Desperate Labour makes up ‘tactical voting’ organisation to fool by-election voters

Labour is clearly desperate in the Gorton and Denton by-election. No wonder, since it’s running a poor third according to the latest polling.

So with polls opening today, 26 February, it was clearly time for the liar-led party to break out its latest scam: make up a completely fake ‘tactical voting organisation’ that ‘says’ local people need to vote Labour. Then post leaflets with the fake company’s name on – and a fake website.

It’s almost certainly illegal, regardless what ‘imprint’ the party puts in tiny print on the edge. It’s definitely illegal if it hasn’t put one. It’s definitely lying, either way.

Labour are beyond desperate

Labour has made up – plucked from thin air or the diseased brain of some PR slimer, or perhaps Labour Together, as it would fit with that slimy outfit’s record – a supposed organisation called “Tactical Choice”. And, surprise surprise, the non-existent tactical voting organisation made up by Labour recommends that Gorton and Denton needs to – drum roll…. vote Labour:

Got this through my door in the last two hours and was actually taken aback by how far they’ve gone out of their way to make it look like a leaflet from an independent tactical voting org https://t.co/mrqkvEC2Db pic.twitter.com/QWwdJ34WHm

The fake organisation even has a fake logo – although it looks like one that Labour bought off the shelf for pennies, like Starmer did with his ‘Great British Energy’ scam. And that was definitely a scam. In fact, the party may not even have spent pennies: Google’s AI suggested that the image had been created with children’s wax crayons:

The image displays squares that closely resemble Stockmar Beeswax Block Crayons. These are known for their luminous colors, flat shape, and use in Waldorf education.

And the Greens have noticed, with Green leader Zack Polanski taking Mancunian MP and Labour deputy leader personally and publicly to task for the scam:

Dear Lucy,

On the eve of the by-election, your Labour party spokesperson has admitted to the Huffington Post that a Labour party leaflet has been delivered through doors with your imprint recommending a vote for Labour by a tactical voting organisation which does not exist.

This is deeply troubling, it is actually lying to voters. ​ Did you approve this? ​ Do you feel the Labour Party in government should be held to different standards in terms of honesty to the British public? ​

In your last letter to me you mentioned your ‘very extensive data’ and ‘having spoken to over a third of eligible voters’ which led you to an understanding that the by-election ‘was a contest between Labour and Reform’. ​ Clearly this latest development only tells voters one thing – you will employ any type of political deception (or in Urdu “Dhoka”) to win. ​

You will be very aware that all three real tactical voting organisations are recommending a vote for the Greens as the best way to stop Reform. ​ Lying to the voters, as you have been caught doing, raises the real prospect that Reform will be the beneficiaries, something you have said that you don’t want. ​

As this is such an important issue, for the sake of your own reputation, I would strongly urge you to apologise to the voters of Denton and Gorton before the polls open in the morning. ​

Kind regards,

Zack Polanski
Leader of the Green Party of England and Wales

But the leaflet isn’t all. The website it contains is also a scam. It uses an address that sounds like a general democracy website: iwillvote.org.uk. But the small print – right at the bottom where it will probably only be noticed by the sharp-eyed who know to look – shows that the website is operated by Labour:

Labour lies and it lies and it lies. Then it lies some more. Keir Starmer conned Labour members into voting for him by lying and breaking every promise he ever made. Now he’s trying to con voters in Gorton and Denton. He fully deserves the electoral kicking that the pollsters are predicting.
