BBC News - Gordon Brown gives advice on tactical voting

'...if people don't want a Conservative government, then they must make sure they don't allow the Conservatives to get in.' Gordon Brown

Since the fight in Brighton Pavillion is between the Greens and the Tories, Gordon Brown is effectively advising non-Tory voters there to vote Green. I've alway been of the view that people should vote on their convictions myself but the current first past the post system does present some people with a dilemma - and in Brighton, as elsewhere, people voting Green could help create historic wins.

The Greens top three seats...
