The latest poll shows the Tories ahead by 7 points. Tories 43% Labour 36% . If there was a general election tomorrow would you be following this trend? Let's have an AB poll.
Speaking for myself i will not be voting for either party after the damage they have done to this country over the last ten years do not forget the tories have supported labour on many occasions so i hold them guilty as well the only voice we have to tell them they are not listening to us is to vote them out of office maybe then we will see some changes for the better !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rant over
I could never bring myself to vory Tory. Maggie Thatcher saw to that.
Whoever you vote for the government always gets in.
I remember the Tories being hated by pretty much everyone I knew. They were pushing Family Values(TM) while bonking their secretaries. They all seemed to use their position of power to help themselves and their mates. There seemed to be a new scandal every week. The Tories simply imploded.
Then the cheshire cat and New Labour came along and finally it seemed that things would change. Only it didn't really did it. They've been a better Tory party than the Tories themselves which is why they've never really recovered.
I used to be able to name all the cabinet ministers and what they did. Under Labour I wouldn't recognise most of them let alone name what they did. They are just faceless media spun bureaucrats.
The electorate are apathetic because New Labour have shown that no matter who gets in they're all still a bunch of ineffectual w@nkers.
I'll be voting, and I think everyone who can, should, for me, it'll be Tory, but everyone to their own.
I love the way that Tory bashers always hark back to Margaret Thatcher, no-one else, and yes, certain people have good reasons not to like her, Miners, Printers etc, but she brought the pride back into this country, and made it viable on the world stage again.
If there is a BNP standing i will vote for them, if not i will vote Tory. i agree with Lonnie, Margret Thatcher was the the best post war leader this country has had.
Jake is right. These percentages mean nothing.
We're simply witnessing the backlash at the end of the Brown honeymoon period when everyone realises he's basically just a slimy con artist like all the others (as evidenced by the non-election/policy stealing fiasco).
A couple of months from now and the figures will have reversed again probably.
