I'm with you. Have never liked nor trusted Blair, still don't, can't, won't! Haven't a clue who to vote for because I don't think that any of them can do the job

By the way, was that a deliberate misspelling, because it suits him!

I'll be voting for Blair (bliar), I don't agree with some of the decisions he has made and completely disagree with the war, and HATE Bush with a passion, but I think he has done alot for families like ours. I think the good outweighs the bad and anything would be better than the conservatives getting back in!

I'm voting liberal or possibly green this time (I told my proxy to use her judgement) on the basis that we need a stronger and less frightening opposition. I am under no illusions .

Last time I voted Labour out of fear that the Tories would get back in, but this time I don't care - it wouldn't make any difference.

I'm afraid i will have to vote Blair for the same reasons as seashell. I am a SAHM and under the currant tax credit system i am lucky enough not to HAVE to go to work. I do think that if the conservitives got in then under their proposals to scrap the currant system i would probebly have to work. I realise that lots of mums don't have a choice but i think that this is a very important issue and working should be through choice and not neccesity. I also disagree with alot of other things he has done but my family is most important to me

We didn't even have a minimum wage before labour came to power!

Labour have done some good stuff, don't get me wrong. But they are lurching further and further to the right.

A good example is the NHS - when they came to power they put loads of money in and got rid of the silly internal market. Now with primary care trusts, foundation hospitals and all the rest of it they've essentially recreated the internal market with another name. In fact it's not even another name - its a bunch of meaningless acronyms.

I haven't thought it through yet, but I will definitely vote as people in days gone by fought (and died) for my right to vote and for that I'm grateful. I will always go and make my mark.

Really don't know who I'll vote for. Probably LibDem as they are the majority party here -anything except Conservative. A shame they are so appalling - every Government needs a credible opposition.
