Where's your vote going and why?

[hubblebubble]

Conservatives, Labour or Liberal Democrats?

[anotheoldgit]

Non of the above, they are all the same party with different names, to kid us that we live in a democracy.

If a high profile MP is putting up fo re-election, all voters in his or hers constituency should vote for another candidate.

The high flyer will then be out of a job, and it will teach them to take notice of the people who put them in power, in the first place.

[Lonnie]

I'd never vote Labour, the Libs have said they'd do a deal with Labour, so they're out, was going Conservative, until Cameron turned out almost as big a Chameleon as Blair, I do believe in voting, so i'm stuck with either Ukip, or for the first time ever, not voting.

[jenstar]

None of the above.

[Little Willy]

None of the above

[matty1]

none of the above

[Gromit]

Looks like it's going to be a low turn-out then.

[hubblebubble]

Yes. Five people out of the sixty million people in the country are not voting!

[anotheoldgit]

I make it five people out of the six who bothered to answer your question.

[jenstar]

There's more than those three parties, you know!

[hubblebubble]

Your answer matches your name: "anotheoldgit".... Thank you for your useful answer.

[NJOK]

I'll be exercising my democratic right to not vote and then slag them all off from the sidelines.

Thanks very much.

[hubblebubble]

Could all of you give me some reasoning? It would be interesting to hear your views in more detail.

[anotheoldgit]

No need to be so rude hubblebubble, I was just correcting your vastly inaccurate statement that Five people out of sixty million people in the country are not voting.

Are you trying to conduct your own Gallup Poll? I would't bother, just sit on your cushion take another drag on the old Hubblebubble Pipe and relax.

There you have now made me make a rude remark about your name.

[anotheoldgit]

Incidently it was only me and Lonnie, that bothered to answer your question in any detail. Won't bother in future.

I will probably vote for the Green party,again, I can't bring myself to vote for any of the above and I dare NOT vote.So many of us seem to vote to keep someone out.
Is there anyone in politics who believes in the country more than their own career?

[naomi24]

Wired - the short answer to that is no.

[sinbadp]

i find it astonishing that all 3 major parties think that having similar policies will make them popular with the voters. the real issues crime, immigration, education need radical new policies, not the tired cliches that the big 3 trot out time after time. I would love to have the opportunity to vote for a party that isnt terrified of being seen as non pc

[Hugh Spencer]

Here I go again. For over sixty years I have made it my duty to vote but this year, with all the dreadful decisions that have been and we are going to suffer because of them, I cannot vote for any of the three main political parties. But I cannot just sit back and witness these things without at least tracking down a party which might be able to change the current trends. At the moment I am following closely what the UKIP party is saying. It is the fourth largest party but is gaining support every day. Don't refuse to vote, give UKIP a chance!
