    I'm not voting because I am not in the UK. I could vote but don't think that I should.

      While I don't share the everything-Brown-does-is-dumb view, I think it's time they were out. However where I live (Durham City) it's a close run thing between Labour & LibDem. Given Norman's increased popularity I think we have a chance to get Labour out for the first time in years/decades, so we'll be voting LibDem. Of course we might only be strengthening a LabLibDem coalition, but hey at least I feel like our votes could genuinely affect something which in the North-East is not that common.

        I'm not voting as I'm not on the list - I could have arranged for a vote but it causes more problems than it's worth.

        However, if I was ....... I have no idea. I think they are all a load of fracking merde (can we use rude words yet?).

        Here in Bethnal Green it is held by Respect, Galloway's mob. He has moved on though. The only party that is likely to get them out is Labour. Neither of which I would ever vote for (hence not bothering to do anything about getting a vote).

        At a national level, I suppose UKIP would be the least offensive.
        How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

          Thank God this bunch of right-wing crazies are not representative of the British people.

            I had been leaning towards Liberal as an alternative to not voting in recent months, but their immigration amnesty policy is too potty for my liking and may be indicative of further pottiness to come. So I guess it's either no vote or Conservative.

              Shouldn't the thread be titled who are you going to vote for, or which party?

              I imagine the how is toddling along to your local polling place and casting a vote, like.

              Which I can't do then again, I won't be around to feel the consequences.

                Saint Vince of Cable is my MP.

                i'd like to keep it that way.

                Were I living in a marginal seat, I'd be voting tactically to remove/block the Labour candidate.

                  I wonder how or whether government IT policy will change under the Conservatives wrt outsourcing and insourcing. New Labour went hell for leather on destroying UK IT and especially IT contractors, probably in return for jobs after office (or other perks) and to help India. Will this continue under the Tories?

                    No; they certainly did; it certainly will.
