I think Tory. Our Tory MP has done a lot for our area and I strongly believe in women’s rights. Labour would be a disaster for women and girls.

I will hold my nose and vote tactically against the SNP

This, Tory only option.

PoopingAllTheWay · 29/06/2024 21:11

Labour - They are due a ‘shot’ in changing the country

Thmssngvwlsrnd · 29/06/2024 21:10

If you had asked me a month ago I would have said definitely Labour, but this whole trans / women's only spaces thing is getting to me now and I don't know who to vote for. I don't want it to be easier for a man to pretend to be a woman. I don't want men with their male genitals in the ladies toilets or changing rooms with me or my daughter. I agree with many Labour policies but I cannot agree with them on this. I really want to use my vote, but I don't see how I can. it's so frustrating.

Livinginaclock · 29/06/2024 21:10

Conservative.
I'm not happy about it, but at least they know what a woman is.
I'm a single issue voter this time, women's rights are my main concern.

Haha I've just been on the phone to my friend in Scotland and she's doing the same. Wants to vote for a unionist party which rules a few out. She thinks she's going to vote libdem
I live in what has a safe conservative seat in the south since forever, I'm hoping to get to a hustings tomorrow night to make my mind up about who to vote for. I've always voted conservative but don't want to this time, it's time for a change, but I don't think Starmers going to be that good a PM if I'm honest. I've not been impressed with his appearances so far. I'm bored of hearing about when he was DPP and haven't heard a lot about the future and what he'll do if/when labour win as I'm sure they will. Bit worrying IMO. And the women's spaces thing too.
Tactical voting websites are no help in my constituency, they state "not sure", so nothing to go on really.

Labour

They need a chance

ExitPursuedByABare · 29/06/2024 21:09

Tory. I’m a natural conservative but was looking to vote elsewhere but sadly no viable options. And I’m in a Labour Stronghold. Though will be interesting if Galloway’s lot make in roads.

ZaZathecat · 29/06/2024 21:08

Labour, with great pleasure.

Houseplanter · 29/06/2024 21:07

Leaning away from Tory towards Reform. In reality will either spoil or not vote

Labour would be a disaster.

GreyCarpet · 29/06/2024 21:07

I've decided I'm spoiling my ballot.

I won't vote Tory and I can't vote Labour. I'm certainly not going to give them my vote and have them think I'm OK with their anti woman agenda. Because I'm not.

Lib dems and Greens don't want my vote so that's an easy decision.

I'm also politically homeless.

Prawncow · 29/06/2024 21:07

Labour

The Tories need to go and fascist-lite (Reform) getting seats would be horrific. I’m not going to cut off my nose to spite my face because of the trans issue.

Greaterorlesser · 29/06/2024 21:07

Tory. Our MP is excellent and I want her to keep her seat

A local independent. I liked everything he stood for, whilst he was realistic, and had personalised his manifesto to the local area.

The only person I can vote for with a clear conscience

OhshutupDerek · 29/06/2024 21:06

Labour.

Thegreatgiginthesky · 29/06/2024 21:06

Lib dem becuase it is the only viable party in my area other than Tory.

Nextweektoo · 29/06/2024 21:06

Tories, Indie school parent.

I'm voting for Party of Women because I believe in their message and since there will always be a Labour MP in my constituency it at least allows me to have my 'say' as futile as it may be. Will never vote Labour. If there was no PoW candidate then I would vote Conservative.

What is The Party Of Women?

ledfacesystem · 29/06/2024 21:05

I'm an ex-labour party member and I'll vote Labour probably as there is no other option in my area (Scotland) can't vote SNP or Green or Tory or Reform or Freedom Alliance. What I really want is a left wing party that understands what a woman is (clue, women don't have a penis Keir) but there is no option for that. Not that Labour is left wing anymore but its either tory or Labour given how our system is set up so I will probably hold my nose and vote Labour.

FeelingHotHotHotFeelingHotHotHot · 29/06/2024 21:05

Labour
Tories
Lib Dem
Green
Reform
SNP (Scotland)

And why?

Should have done a proper poll really. I am struggling ... Labour or LibDems for me.

Icepop79 · 29/06/2024 21:05

Labour. I want the Tories annihilated for what they’ve done to this country. They need to be utterly humiliated on a national scale for it to sink in for them that they can not treat this country as their personal cash point machine.

Fuzziduck · 29/06/2024 21:04

It will be whatever is the best tactical vote I can make against Labour.

EKnaring · 29/06/2024 21:04

I would have voted for the Green Party but was disappointed by their manifesto. As I’m expecting my first child I suppose this feels like the first GE where I’m looking very closely at where parties stand with specific things such as what may benefit families or children. Leaning more towards Labour after reading their manifesto
