Voting next week... wtf

[Southie]

So the time is nearly there and tbh I have no idea what to do, or is it just me?

Everything is up in the air with brexit and that's still on going, then we've to decide who's the best to sort it out.... fuck knows anymore is all I can say and usually I stand by my guns and vote my usual but I now don't know what to do!!!

so go on ( I've forgotten how to put up a poll) what's everyone's opinions?

[Stuart]

I know my choice isn't the correct answer, it it's sure as hell more correct than the rest right now.

and yes that means the evil thatcher brigade lol

[paul james]

The whole thing is pretty pointless, I would imagine the turnout could be pretty low. I'll probably contribute to the expected result too, because the alternatives just seem worse. Its been quite funny seeing the parties who stand no chance promising things they know they couldn't possibly deliver, such as a 4 day working week, extra bank holidays for all, free mansions and talking unicorns for every person in the country.

[Stuart]

I do get the impression the tories are trying to lose, so that they aret the ones to lash up brexit and then save the day in 2020/21.... but at the same time I like the idea of making it to 2020 in the first place lol

[Andy]

None of them are worth voting for.
Nobody is willing to have the sack to change anything radically.
I genuinely won't be bothering this time.

[totalnova]

I know I won't be voting for labour, I honestly believe that their manifesto looks great on paper, child care, education, nhs, but it's all pie in the sky and this country physically can not afford what their promising. I have no love for the Torrie's but I'll be voting for them just to be sure labour don't get into power, they say all the right things but I just have no confidence they'd be able to deliver.

[millworm]

Honestly don't know, as said above Labour looks great but they needed to get the money from somewhere, not to mention the fact none of them seem to know how it's all going to be costed when interviewed. Lib dems where still pushing for another eu referendum witch puts me off straight away, That's not how democracy works at all, you can't just keep going till you get the result you want. Tories are looking asif they'll get my vote to be honest. It's the lesser of 2 evils at the moment, at least they should have a bit more authority when it comes to negotiations on leaving the eu.

[Stuart]

I dunno, the second ref lark is high on the snp agenda lol

[bazzap8389]

havent made up my mind just yet but I'll tell you's something for free...that Tory cunts will never get my vote.

Oh yeah the snp... forgot about them...

Thats exactly what I was thinking. It's playing into May's hands - there's three outcomes, all of which are good for her (personally):

1. Labour get wiped out; Conservatives have better control on the government making Brexit negotiations easier
2. Labour increase their MPs; May can blame any Brexit failings on them trying to derail things
3. Labour win; May doesn't have to deal with Brexit at all and can wipe her hands of it. By the way she's been acting, I wonder if this is her preferred option lol

[Mike]

I never bother voting because quite simply, its all shit & there all lying cunts.

Option 3 sounds more like what will happen.
The way all the spin is going I'd go with Labour just because of the way May is acting, however, because of that my X might go in for the Tories...

Problem we have is that as a country we have triggered something that no political party knows how to deal with, Brixit! Our whole political system is in a total mess, none of them can be trusted and most will have swindled money out of our own pockets.

Bring back the Monster Raving Loony Party I say!

This is my thought this time.
Decades of failed promises.If you're north of the m25 you don't count for sh1t.
Immigration is out of control and has been under both governments,yet the Torid blame eu on lack of controls to it,still the controlled side of it is still way past their promise,they are categorically full of dog shit.
Labour are just embarrassing now,Blair should be in prison,brown was a clown milliband tried to salvage some face,Corbyn? Don't even get me started.I can't see the country ever being run for the people,the real people who work,im sick of paying tax for spongers,the ones who have no intentions of ever working,be it foreign or English or the politicians who lie cheat blag and thieve.

[Benn]

I'm going to go in, but not vote for any. It's been said if you "spoil" the vote its counted as a "no conference vote"
No trust in any,
All lying,
All gonna fuck us over.

[Edd]

I will vote Conservative

They only party that will follow through Brexit properly

Corbyn is a disgrace to himself, his party and his country

I'd never vote Labour after 12 years of Blair and Brown, who totally ruined this country opening up the floodgates in 2004 and very nearly bankrupted us

Corbyn has tried to cost his policies on a rise in corporation tax and tax rates for the over £80ks

Institute of Fiscal Studies said that this is enough cash to cover the policies so the working class will foot the bill with record tax rises
No thanks

I suppose he could give his money tree a shake, seems to add a couple £bn on to his budget each day

Then you've got the prospect of Diane Abbott having anything to do with finance lol

nope, it goes as a spoiled vote in that they assume you're retarded... it like someone who marks more than the required amount, puts an x next to the name but not in the box etc.

If the had a 'none of the above' as an option I bet there would be a higher turn out. Not sure what it would mean but it would provide some interesting metrics.


now, Edd is a surprise here.... in a good way :) lol although I don't want brexit, we might as well go hard at it.

[NovalutionGSi]

Go hard brexit or go home!

Postal votes done...

[marc69]

I also feel they all lack intergrity more so than usual. Also everyone is sick of this constant voting, and the expense.

I am really concerned, Scotland voted 3 years ago to stay as part of the UK as a "once in a lifetime opportunity" from the SNP's words. Now that their is an opportunity due to the hatred of the Tories and weakness of the others for independence, She will push for it and Scotland will not be in the EU (although they tell naieve people we will...reality) and not in the UK.

I am concerned for Scotland that it will be left a tiny weak isolated country just for Sturgeon's ego.

Sometimes I wonder if she just wants to go down in history as the first minister who gained independence for Scotland, and screw the consequences

Both her and her predecessor. They can never back up anything they say with actual financial figures, it is quite scary.

[Stuart]

Oil and scotch.... honest

[marc69]

Oil and scotch.... honest
Exactly, very little left or owned by UK companies!

[Andy]

Shambolic shithole

[NovalutionGSi]

Shambolic shithole

Are you on about Scotland or Westminster! Lol

So now we have a hung parliament (wish they would hang themselves!) There is 2 options I believe.. 1, another Poxy vote, more cost! 2, the Tories will need to bunk up with someone!

[totalnova]

I can't see anyone wanting to get into bed with the Torrie's after what happened to the lib dems last time.
