Labour, reluctantly, to see off a hideous Tory.

Conservative in my constituency. It's a marginal seat. Private school fee payer, think Rishi did well in the end and economically things are on up, and frankly haven't seen the plan from labour but have seen some seriously childish adverts.

I'm voting conservative. The only party who knows what a woman is.
Also, they have triple locked pensions. Labour want to put a tax on pensions. So no. Tories for me!

Labour. Because I think it will be better for my children and grandchildren. Not me necessarily.

brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr · 29/06/2024 21:02

Labour, the only party able to take out Tories locally and I think they’re the best for public services, particularly NHS and care.

Literally nobody here is someone I can bring myself to vote for. We have an Independant candidate but they have previously stood in various places, no obvious connection to our area and nothing in their statement that suggests any knowledge of local issues.

I feel angry and sad, and full of despair for the way this country is going.

macaroniandcheeze · 29/06/2024 21:01

Labour as I live in a very Tory area and every vote counts to get them out. And I do believe that overall they will have a positive impact.
I’d love to vote Green but I don’t feel like it’s a wise move right now.

Catlover77 · 29/06/2024 21:00

Not voting. As a woman, who on earth could I vote for?

Circumferences · 29/06/2024 20:57

Labour but begrudgingly.
I don't like them, but the rest are worse.

Hedjwitch · 29/06/2024 20:55

I will hold my nose and vote tactically against the SNP

soscarlet · 29/06/2024 20:54

Lib Dem. She’s been a really good MP for local issues so I’m voting for that rather than the party. I’m a Labour voter at heart but they’d be a distant third here.

Londonrach1 · 29/06/2024 20:54

First time ever

Londonrach1 · 29/06/2024 20:54

Neither Tory or labour! Labour female rights is a huge no no and I can't vote Tory. I'm unable to vote at the moment....

Scottishlassie28 · 29/06/2024 20:53

I’m undecided , I’m looking in to who is going to do more regarding child poverty (Scotland)

DonnaBanana · 29/06/2024 20:53

Unsure. Any vote that isn’t Tory is a vote for Labour in practice and I don’t support either. So I might spoil my ballot as at least no one can say I voted for Labour by not voting Tory.

Whothefuckdoesthat · 29/06/2024 20:52

I don’t know. I’m politically homeless. It’s less a case of having a reason to vote for them, and more a case of having a lot of reasons not to.

I cannot bring myself to vote for anyone in your list. I’ve just found out about a local independent candidate standing locally, so it’s likely to be him.

anonhop · 29/06/2024 20:51

Not voting.

In my area, only Labour, Tory, Lib Dem, Green & Reform.

All but Reform have certain policies/ethoses (won't say what) that I cannot stand behind due to my faith. I can't in good conscience put my name behind any of those candidates.

& I just don't want to vote Reform because I'm in a Tory-Reform close area & the Tory is a great constituency MP so I don't want to vote against him, even though I can't vote for him.

I thought about spoiling my vote but don't really see the point! I'm v interested in it & will probably stay up to watch though :)

Staplerandstappler · 29/06/2024 20:39

Labour.

Like Starmer, like their general ethos and outlook.
