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

Labour, because the Conservatives have destroyed education and because Boris is a twat.

Silvergreen · 11/12/2019 23:10

Labour. The conservatives have nothing to offer this country.

Threeminis · 11/12/2019 23:08

SNP. I want Scotland to be independent and be able to speak for itself.

GreatGallopingSarah · 11/12/2019 23:08

Reluctant Lib Dem - because I wholeheartedly disagree with Brexit but I’m reluctant because I am v concerned about their gender self-ID stance.

Chickydoo · 11/12/2019 23:04

Tory
Just too many things about Corbyn I find worrying

Chocolateandchats · 11/12/2019 23:01

Labour because the last few years under Tories have been awful. Sadly, I’m also voting more for who I don’t want and I think Labour are the ones who have a chance of getting them out.

SNP - Scotland now needs its independence

Doggodogington · 11/12/2019 22:55

Labour, If conservatives were going to invest in the NHS, they would have done it in the 9 years they’ve been in power. Boris is untrustworthy.

ChidiAnnaKendrick · 11/12/2019 22:54

Labour, because I’m not a sociopath.

SlayingDragons · 11/12/2019 22:53

Alliance because we need a third way here in NI - we need a future that isn’t simply a choice between orange and green.

I living elsewhere in UK I would vote Lib Dem’s. They aren’t perfect and I would have to turn a few blind eyes to be able to do it, but don‘t think I would have a choice

LoveSatsumas · 11/12/2019 22:42

Tory.

Oly4 · 11/12/2019 22:38

Labour, because I truly care about people less well off than me. And we’re in the top 5% of earners. I’m happy to pay more

Sunshine1239 · 11/12/2019 22:38

Tory

Because labours manifesto figures are so pie in the sky I can’t belive anyone fell for them

As for NHS - yes it needs reform but ploughing cash after cash isn’t the solution

Half the issue is managing the funds they have - my mates a consultant Dr and every overtime shift he does he can get up to £1k for - that’s bloody ridiculous and bad management not just poor funding. The NHS wasn’t designed for the numbers accessing it. Plus I think the care it currently provides is over rated but that’s just my opinion

MsDFye · 11/12/2019 22:34

Labour. Because every morning I walk past human beings living in tents and sleeping in doorways. I used to see the occasional beggar in our city centre but never rough sleepers. Because there are at least three food banks in my neighbourhood where previously there wern't any. Nine years of Tory austerity has done this whilst doubling our national debt.

someworksomeplay · 11/12/2019 22:28

This election is more about voting against what you don't want rather than voting for what you do.

Galvantula · 11/12/2019 22:27

SNP.

Won't vote Tory, no point voting labour, can't vote Lib Dem and snp mp seems ok guy.

(V against independence, but van hope)

Would rather that then not vote.

FantailsFly · 11/12/2019 22:27

Labour - need a government that cares about how the benefits of economic growth are distributed. Plus IMO Tories have ruined the country with austerity, Brexit, and cynical populism.

whatyournamebabee · 11/12/2019 22:26

Conservative - as I support Brexit and I don't usually vote, but want to show this. (Moved about, but always lived in a conservative safe seat areas anyway.)

JKScot4 · 11/12/2019 22:25

SNP, for a fair inclusive country

Aheraldangel · 11/12/2019 22:24

someworksomeplay how can you vote Tory if you hate them??! Surely you could vote libdem/Green/SNP/Plaid instead? Please check out how to vote tactically in your area. Save our NHS/schools/uni education etc etc.

Zofloramummy · 11/12/2019 22:24

Green - they don’t stand a chance here but, I can’t vote for either labour, conservative or Lib Dem as I don’t have any faith in them. The bigger picture of climate change will massively affect us all. They want to make misogyny illegal. Finally decided, after much soul searching it’s Green for me.

Green. Because climate change and the imminent extinction of life on earth is a little more pressing than any of these superficial policies that the parties are arguing over.

SaDo12 · 11/12/2019 22:04

Labour - education and NHS

Piplette · 11/12/2019 22:00

Lib Dem. Took one of those quizzes based on policy and 50% of the policies I supported were theirs.

I'm not a fan of Jo Swinson but then I'm not a fan of any of them.
