London voters discuss defence spending and party tactics over dinner
Two London residents met to compare their voting records, career paths, and views on military funding while sharing a meal.
Dining preferences and nervousness levels
One guest started with monkfish skewers before eating crab pasta and dessert. The other chose tuna tartare followed by grilled monkfish and fries for the main course. Both diners finished their meal with an old fashioned cocktail and a sweet treat.
Voting history and tactical choices
One man voted Conservative until Thatcher, Labour until Blair, and now votes between Labour and Green to keep Nigel Farage out of office. Another voter has flipped between Conservative and Lib Dem positions for tactical reasons while trying to visit professional football grounds. Carey identifies as a logistics manager on a construction site while Chris works in risk and control for a bank.
Opinions on military waste
Chris believes there is currently waste within the military spend before giving somebody more money. He thinks increasing defence spending is necessary but wants to see that people are looking after resources first.
