Make sure you all exercise your right to vote today!

 

If you don't vote, you cant complain about government/politicians/policies for 5 years!

 

Dont let apathy (or Russel Brandt) be an excuse, it only takes a few mins.

 

May your chosen party win (unless they are the ones I dont like!) :lol:

They have a saying over here in N,I, "Vote early and vote often":shifty:

I will be exercising my right NOT to vote. In conjunction with around 1/3 of the eligible population.

Its not apathy in my case (or Russell B) I simply dont want to be involved.

Russell Brand is a hairy Jesus c*n*. I never listen (willingly) to a single word he has to say.

 

I will vote - but I am still not too sure as to whom I'll vote for. It won't be Labour as I couldn't think of anything worse than having Ed Miliband run the country!

You mean Nicola Sturgeon surely in that scenario?

Actually no! lol

I will vote, but unless I vote labour, it will be as effective as a back pocket in a vest. You could stand a Syphilitic pig in lipstick up with a Labour rosette on round here and it would win.

So I have John Mann representing me again, the most obnoxious big headed tw@t I have ever had the misfortune to meet (three times).

Wanting my country back. Ukip for me.

You think that will do it?

UKIP candidates are mostly morons. Whilst I agree with Farage on a few points and out of all of them, he seems the most 'down to earth', his team are crooked and rat bags.

 

Labour - I couldn't think of anyone worse than Miliband running the country. He comes across as a school-yard goon.

 

Conservatives - ya know what? They're the best of a bad bunch. I see the UK as 'steady' and 'making progress'. Not in all areas and we're hardly pre-2008.

 

Lib Dems - I quite like Nick Clegg, but the issue with the lib dems isn't really their policies, it's their clout. I don't have any confidence in them. They appear as the meek and 'also ran'. It's a shame to be honest.

 

Green party - not interested

 

SNP - doesn't concern me

 

Plaid Cymru - doesn't concern me.

 

I actually voted for a few independents on seats going for North Somerset District Council and Portishead Council.

I am actually standing for election onto our Borough Council this year against 3 other parties. I have been a parish councillor for 12 years but this time as the other years we have not had enough people put their names forward to force an election.

 

It has been an eye opener to the amount of work you have to do, I have been delivering leaflets and knocking on doors for months to cover the 7 villages the ward covers.

 

Nervous as hell now and we have to wait until Saturday to hear the results !

You drive a zed, I would vote for you just on that basis.

Agreed. However they didn't spring up out of thin air are comprised mostly of defectors from other parties these days. What I dislike is the medias coverage if them, the whole they are all Natzis angle is rather blinkered. For example, "they hate immigrants and wish to stop it/send people home" no they want to limit migration and inforce a system that ensures we get skilled migrants not scroungers.

 

Labour - I couldn't think of anyone worse than Miliband running the country. He comes across as a school-yard goon.

 

Very much so. He was most likely heavily bullied not because kids are mean but most likely because he was a scrott and people hated him, that kid.

 

Conservatives - ya know what? They're the best of a bad bunch. I see the UK as 'steady' and 'making progress'. Not in all areas and we're hardly pre-2008.

 

Cameron's a toff, he doesn't understand the working class. However the guy is good at his job, a function over form type chap.

 

Lib Dems - I quite like Nick Clegg, but the issue with the lib dems isn't really their policies, it's their clout. I don't have any confidence in them. They appear as the meek and 'also ran'. It's a shame to be honest.

 

No balls and defiantly not a born leader. However I think he gets an unfair wrap as their contribution over the last few years has been stolen when it's positive by Dave. I feel he has made good contributions and softened a few things.

 

Green party - not interested

 

Want to take away my rural liberties. Bunch of tree hugging city thinkers, they would ruin this country for anyone that's not a vegan that walks to their city job.

 

SNP - doesn't concern me

 

Does this party not realise that English people don't want to be part of Westminster's crap either? We could all just make a big cut round London and float it out to sea to be it's own little European state. Meanwhile we can carry on be the UK.

 

Plaid Cymru - doesn't concern me.

 

As above except I don't think anyone takes them seriously. Wales would suffer greatly without the rest of the UK.

 

I actually voted for a few independents on seats going for North Somerset District Council and Portishead Council.

 

I won't be voting. Not because I'm apathetic, I have listen and thought a lot. I just cannot bring myself to pick the least worst option. If there was a none of the above box that would be my choice. Force them to grow up behave and cone up with proper policy, oh and reform the way it all works.

If I were to chose I would be voting conservative. Hoping for a coalition between them and the libs again or Ukip just to put the brakes on Dave and stir the pot when necessary.

I think the manifestos should be legal documents and binding, proposed policies may be taken a bit more seriously then?

Wanting my country back. Ukip for me.

 

Back...............from where? Whose taken it?

They should certainly be a far more official plan. Ie you can't promise it without showing how you will achieve it and you can't just go back on those promises without good cause as a last resort, not just because it's not convenient.

Nobody took it, they just moved it a bit when spin was on the rig.................lol

It is our hard-fought, democratic right to vote - or indeed not to if you feel that way inclined....

 

...But if you do not vote, then in my eyes, you effectively lose the right to complain about whoever does get into government.....

 

One final thought - as you have less than 15 minutes to get down to the polling station - is this. There might not be a "none of the above" option; you might not feel any of the candidates or parties are worthy of government. However, you will probably more likely feel that one or other party/candidate should NOT be in power. In that case, use your vote tactically to help keep out the ones you don't want from getting in!

My point exactly. Couldnt have said it better

Well done to the Conservative's a good result for them. Labour has lost seats and the Lib Dems have crashed. But the SNP rule Scotland well done to them:thumbup1: The big unknown of UKIP did not happen. The people have voted and Democracy rules be thankfull that in WW1 and WW2 good people fought and died for your freedom of speech and right to vote.

Fittingly that today is the day we start the celebrations for VE Day. Perhaps a new future for politics that will benefit all corners of this Great Britain.

Thankfully all the knuckle draggers on Facebook wasn't enough to get UKIP anywhere in the end!

Leaders that have fallen on their sword Miliband,Cleg and Farage. Going to be a lot of changes in UK politic's

Mr Miliband...thats what you get for being a rat with your brother,the nation condemed your sneaky actions through there votes:sneaky2::rofl::rofl:
