Pretty straightforward really. If you had to vote tomorrow, would you vote for?

Would be interesting to hear what the other parties are, and maybe I could add them to the poll...

Depends on what the polls are showing. If Lib Dems and Labout were closely vying for 2nd, I would vote Lib Dems in an effort to demote Labour to third place and cause them to implode for decades to come.

Tactical, here; the Conservatives haven't won in my lifetime. Not that I really want the LibDems to form a government (largely due to their idiotic greeny rubbish).

Likewise. I'm not overly keen on CMD's idiotic greeny rubbish either however.

I think I am likely to spoil my paper by writing,

"You are all the same you lousy expense fiddling, personality hyping, media driven, do nothing, car hating wastes of skin".

Then again, I want this lot out, so I'll probably vote Tory again.

I wish! I meant 'here' in the sense of 'where I live'. Long time Labour seat, currently LibDem.

A 'spoiled vote' is definitely better than staying at home disillusioned with all the parties on offer. A spoiled vote says 'I was bothered enough to get off the sofa - but you're all a rubbish much of a muchness, and don't represent me'.
I definitely won't vote Labour, only a mad person would vote Lib Dem...so the Con's it is. But nothing will change when they get in.
The first party to properly means test benefit claimants will get my full backing. I'm fed up with people working the maximum amount of hours (17 I think) which allows them to claim maximum benefits and working cash in hand for any additional hours. I know so many people who do this and is boils my piss because they have more disposable income than me (although they live in a council house and I don't)

Where's the "won't bother" or "abstain" option?

Or the BNP option? Not that I agree with all of their policies but I think that they should have been included.

I really believe that the BNP will gain a lot of ground in the upcoming council/general elections, Hmmmm.....we will see.

I voted Labour (in the above poll) just to annoy people.

truely speaking though, I think appathy will have a hold of my vote. Nothing will change. Cons will win next election and spend following 5 years blaming Labour for all the st. Seems pointless to me.

Should have thought about that, but it seems pointless adding them now.

Tory, not because I agree with their Eco rubbish but because I want Labour out, and I know UKIP won't get enough votes to make a difference, so Tory it is.

I wouldn't vote. The lower the turnout the less credibility the current system has.

Tory, but only because they say they will raise the inheritance tax level up to a million, or something around that level. Apart from that I don't give a toss because very little else will change whomever gets in.
