I haven't voted as I'm still unsure.................I'm sure that I'm not voting Labour though.........their policies just haven't worked......to my mind
Voted and might have voted Labour
In truth anyone but the tax and waste party of Grodon the moron!
If those wasters who give my hard earned money to the workshy on benefits, get getting out of the country before it becomes third world will be on the top of my list of options.
13 years of unmitigated disaster, killing small businesses, giving money to people who will not work.
Why should I pay for the kids of someone who will not work and takes home more in benefits than the average family earns through hard work!

Voted Lib Dems. They talk a lot of sense.
Vote Quimby...

I can remember 17 years previous to that under tory government, only it wasn't small businesses, it was the coal and steel industry and off shoot businesses related to that. I never want to see them days again. Take home benefits? After 12 years of working and two months on the dole (for the firsts time I might add) my daughter got 54 pound per week and applied for a 153 jobs, so please don't be classing layabouts that you get in every government as spongers! She found a job herself, that she was qualified for after being offered 2 pound a week extra to work in a bar on the dole. So where all this sponging of the system comes from is beyond me...single = 54 pound and not one penny more, now if anyone can live comfortable on that without dodgy dealing is beyond my comprehension. I certainly would not wish that on anyone with a mortgage and bills to pay and incidentally she lost her home ! Not everyone on the dole are deadbeats, hope it doesn't happen to you or yours at some point.
oh and ps ..... if giving pensioners pension credit, cold winter payments and a minimum wage is such a bad thing, Give me that any day for a fairer society than what we ever got from the Tories.
So from the above few posts we can conclude that Labour and Tory have both had turns at hurting various areas of business and home life throughout the past 30+ years. That's why neither of them get my vote, although I accept that one of them will win, as that is the way of things. I'm not into the premise of voting for the least worst of two evils. It's been the way of things for too long. Sod that, I'm not voting for either of them!! Lib Dems get my vote. I don't like everything they stand for, but they are a change from the norm and I think that's something our Country badly needs.

In a way Spider I agree, we need a more fairer voting system. But to me the lesser of two evils is Labour, I would rather have a cross party government to be honest.
LibDem

I..... hey ho working class so it's labour for me.....but I would be sorely tempted
I personally could never understand the voting according to class thing, surely the policies should decide.Reference:Dame_Ann_average

Voting Labour where I live is the same as voting Conservative (something that my Dad always used to insist on )I have never voted for anyone other that Liberal

Labour for me
I voted Labour and if it's a hung Parliament I hope Clegg goes with Labour
Labour!

Akthough you have included the DUP.you have left out the other two main Northern Ireland parties, the Ulster Unionists and Sinn Fein. I think you need to amend your poll to avoid offending foum members there.

I am not voting because of a class thing, I'm voting labour because I saw what Tory policies did to our area. Cameron's sums do not add up and someone will have to pay for the NI and you can bet your bottom dollar it will be us through various taxes or a VAT hike. Voting Lib Dem here would be a waste of a vote, it's a two horse race between Labour and Tories.

thats the worst thing you could ever do.quote:Why should I pay for the kids of someone who will not work and takes home more in benefits than the average family earns through hard work
The thing is these days wth tax credits...NO-ONE is better off on benefits!

What about SDLP? Some websites have them listed as the biggest nationalist party in Ulster.Anyway by editing the poll options it would reset all votes already casted apparently. Just use "other" and I apologise for any offense this might incur.
Still Labour for me

thats the worst thing you could ever do.
And baseless scaremongering isn't??
I'm tired of hearing people say Lib Dems is a wasted vote, and so on. Muf is right it is scare mongering. The type of thing you'd expect to hear from desperate politicians who have nothing to offer the voters. Just makes me more resolute.
Before Mr Blair and his appalling lot, I always voted Labour (as did all my family before me), but in truth, Brown and his cronies are NOT true Labour, at least not in the way I remember it! By my way of thinking, we no longer have a Labour party in this country....what we have is a useless, egostitical bunch of politicians, masquerading as the *peoples party* .... When, and if, we ever get a proper Labour again, I will be happy to return to my roots..... *and breathe*

SM is right I live in what was a Tory safe seat [75 years] and they always used the same argument to keep us Liberals down ie; Liberals can't form a Government so if You have one as an MP then You won't have a voice in Parliament.
Last election, we broke that mould and called the Tory bluff and we've gone from having MPs who need a map to find their constituency to having an MP with a small majority who fights tooth and nail for us down south (and one who used to publish his expences online even before the scandal )

Its a long time since we had a Labour party that truly represented the working people of this country.

Couldn't see the Green Party in your poll but I like a lot of their policies

Very true Squiggle....
Labour X 2.
Labour X 3

Labour X 3
I could only find two polls. I don't know what made me put 3 instead of 2
I thought Gordon Brown's face was irritating when he does that awful rictus smile but today on The Andrew Marr show he was so smug it was even worse.
