Oh, I'd read about agreements with the Tories but fair enough. That's more reasonable.
I don't think Green/Tory in rural areas is that weird. I don't really think the Greens are the saviours of the left like many. A lot of long-standing Greens have been NIMBY pro-environment centre-right ex-Tories. I'm probably voting Green because I respect my local branch and they're one of only two parties not doing hate speech (sincere or performative).
I don't really support full PR either. I hate party-list systems and value the constituency links. I actually thought AV was an excellent balance, (really I want AV+), but I think with the collapse of the 2.5 party system FPTP has to go. I also need to explicitly say that I wouldn't even rank Labour within AV now.
