So your solution is to simply continue to vote for the status quo is it?
Interesting tactic but I’m not sure it will work.
You’re standing on the sinking ship and you’re refusing to get in the lifeboat because there is an outside possibility that the lifeboat will also sink. But also quite a high possibility that it won’t. Simple game theory would suggest that you get in the lifeboat.
There are no safe seats in this election I highly recommend that you look up tactical voting.
Voting for a different party simply because you have a chip on your shoulder and it’s an imagined chip as well is only counterproductive for yourself.
You have to ask yourself what you want, Which would be a worse scenario for you another conservative government, or a labor government, because those are the only two possible outcomes here. It would be nice if that wasn’t the case but it’s the case.
Looking at polling data. Your safe seat really might not be so safe. When polling gets to the low 20s everything is up for grabs. The 2 party advantages start to collasps at the 20s. Add to that the 3rd of the big 3 is around 10%.
Then the ability for any of the smaller parties to change things a little seems less extream. So voting habits can change Drematically.
With 1 party at about 40% and no other seeming like the obvious only option to beat them. Absolutely every seat starts to look at the polling at home. People who don’t like labour are less willing to vote them to avoid the tories. Meaning many smaller parties may get a push from left of labour.
But much more the case. People who would normally vote tories to keep Labour out. Have to start thinking tactically. And will think about how to reduce the labour lead from a land slide while placing People who they may turn to and compromise with if weak. When so many parties can potentially gain seats from losing tories. Any one non labour MP may make the difference in a weak labour government.
I still maintain, that overall for the majority of people he spent the government money far better than the current conservatives party have been spending their money.
Spoiler, Blair II won’t.

I live in a tory safe seat, so my vote barely matters, but I won’t be voting for any of the big three.

I mean, Blair 1 did spend it better.
You may not like new Labour, but it’s pure delusion to suggest they were as bad as the criminals in office now.
Blair was the one who saddled the NHS with terrible PFIs.
