It's not just the 'hope'!... As Shon Faye said - it's about having a politician who actually has a moral stance, and the backbone to stick with it!
It's a sense of security that the sand isn't going to shift under your feet once a 'better offer' comes along (like with so many other politicians!)

A white British father and son BOTH raped the same child and pled guilty to multiple counts of Sexual assault.
This has been in the press for 2 days.
The Mirror is the only National newspaper to report on it…
And THAT’s why people have such a skewed perception of the links between race and SA🤷🏼♀️

The judgement states outright that the evidence submitted by her & Sex Matters was “not skilled evidence.”

It said GPs need to be diagnosing it.
