It feels pointless not voting conservative or labour

What do you think?

I'm a swing vote for sure. I've done loads of online quizzes to see who I should vote for but it feels pointless voting for the party that i agree most with, when it isn't the two main parties.

PR voting is not happening any time soon. We've already had a referendum on it and it was a resounding no.

It depends how much you want change.

It seems like approx 30% of voters may vote for parties that aren't the two "in it together" ones. That will probably mean that the Establishment will not be able to prevent a proportional voting system for teh next election or the system risks turning into a farce.

Any vote for a party other than the major two (and the LibDems) will make PR voting more likely and that will bring real political change to the country next time.
