I'm still so torn. In a single sentence can you say who you are voting for and why?

Tory, to stop Corbyn getting in bc he is dangerous, Labour policies are pie in the sky & momentum have too much power.
I also won't vote for a party that has thrown women under the bus in their quest to be PC (Libdem, Green and Labour), or one that won't condemn antisemitism (Labour).

"Getting Brexit done". Did everyone swallow the stupid pill?

Who do you think the Tories will blame when everything goes to shit because of Brexit? That will be you; because you voted for it. They'll blame the poorest 50% because they're always the easiest to scapegoat and the Tories have already convinced enough people that only poor people voted for Brexit.

Labour.

For the many.

RaspberryBubblegum · 12/12/2019 00:28

Labour.
Vote with your heart not with your pockets. Children are going hungry and homeless are dying on our streets.

Most sensible post I've read in a long while.

Tory here too.

OPTIMUMMY · 12/12/2019 00:27

@JKScot4 My constituency is one of the rare labour ones. It went SNP after the referendum, then back to labour with a narrow margin in 2017, so could go either way. Tories won’t get a look in so not worried about the vote being split.

... down South (even!)

mustardbean · 12/12/2019 00:26

SNP. I value the NHS, and feel that the Tory majority down South is a world away from perspectives in Scotland.

CendrillonSings · 12/12/2019 00:21

Conservative. Getting Brexit done and keeping the far left cranks out of power makes this the most important election of my lifetime.

Mammyloveswine · 12/12/2019 00:19

Labour-because if after 10 years this is the best the tories can do it's time for a change!

Tactical vote for the Lib Dems against the Conservatives

The Tories have left the country in a sorry state. I’ve seen for myself that our health service and our schools are struggling, and vulnerable people are suffering needlessly. Our Tory MP’s voting record is abhorrent to me.

I also think that revoking Brexit is the sanest option. We’re wasting all trying to turn back time, when we could be going forwards.

TheVeryHungryTortoise · 12/12/2019 00:15

So many people fail to realise that you don't have to like Corbyn to vote Labour.

I work in the NHS. If you vote Tory the NHS is gone, and then you'll be funding your lengthened elderly years of ill health until it bankrupts you and your family. Just don't sit around complaining when it happens, because we (healthcare professionals in the NHS) have told you multiple blooming times. I'm fed up with the public's entitlement and complete ignorance.

@opti
Labour are dead in the water in nearly every constituency here in Scotland with only 7 MPs, SNP is how to keep the Tories out here.

OPTIMUMMY · 12/12/2019 00:04

Either labour or snp, on the one hand labour need all the help they can get to keep the Tories out, but if down south elect that horror Johnson in, then as a former No voter I’d gladly vote yes in an independence referendum.

JKScot4 · 12/12/2019 00:03

@workingclassgal
Your name and opinion suggest you’re the dimmest of voter groups; working class + Tory 🤣🤣
Vote for the better of everyone not just yourself.

LotteLupin · 12/12/2019 00:03

Lib Dem, because they've campaigned with a clear message, they are the only party treating the idea of Brexit for the serious issue that it is, and also the only major party not run by raving lunatics.

workingclassgal · 11/12/2019 23:58

Tory
Only viable option for this country

smugmug · 11/12/2019 23:53

Conservative
I value my freedom and don't need a nanny state to govern my every breath

kevintheorangecarrot · 11/12/2019 23:49

I want to vote for labour but not when Corbyn is running it. So looks like it's going to Tories...

georgialondon · 11/12/2019 23:48

Lib Dem because I cannot stand Corbyn.

Abc123def · 11/12/2019 23:45

Labour

Because I don’t believe capitalism is working anymore, we’ve gone too far down the route and it needs balancing.

Nyx · 11/12/2019 23:41

SNP. I like their fair and compassionate policies, I want rid of Trident, I want Scotland to be in the EU like the majority in Scotland voted for, I want an independent Scotland, with our own media and news, our own voice and the dignity of being a normal independent country.

Labour, because they are the only chance of getting the Tories out and it terrifies me to think what might happen if this shit show continues.
