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

Sorry - that was more than one sentence.

Labour, because my local MP is a friend and a lovely, sensible non-Corbynite. I don’t feel great about it though, and if our labour candidate was anyone else I’d vote Lib Dem.

TheGlaikitRambler · 11/12/2019 21:58

SNP, as they are the only way for Scotland to be heard.

@dirtyrottenscoundrel to get brexit done
Hahahahahahahaha. You do know it won't "get done" and will just drag on for fucking years leading to even more years of shit and uncertainty?

Lib Dem. was going to vote Tory. Cannot stand Corbyn. Don’t like the fact bono and cronies from same school and uni and don’t represent or empathise with the general population. Corbyn isn’t representative of modern labour and doesn’t even want the job

someworksomeplay · 11/12/2019 21:53

I fucking hate the tories but I am going to vote for them because Corbyn is worse. How shit is that?
The only labour policy I agree with is to stop Diane Abbot saying anything during the run up to the election. Wise move.
There is a massive void in the uk political spectrum right now and labour are too shit to fill it. So sad.

Here's going for no majority, no one forming a minority government, Corbyn resigning and someone decent stepping forward.

Labour. Best chance at knocking Tories out in this seat.

Xiaoxiong · 11/12/2019 21:52

Lib Dem - with extreme reluctance as a tactical vote. Our local candidate is a nice guy even though the party kicked me out a year ago for my gender critical views. But our current Tory MP is the worst of the worst and useless both at a national and a local level. Labour are nowhere in this constituency thank god so I don't have to consider voting for them, though again the candidate is lovely and a parent at the DC's preschool.

LookToTreblesGoingTreblesGone · 11/12/2019 21:50

Tory. Because Jeremy Corbyn has said at the 11th hour that he'll amend the gender recognition act to make self identification legal. So sod women who were born with female sex organs.

iswhois · 11/12/2019 21:49

Labour because I work for the public sector

MonkeyToesOfDoom · 11/12/2019 21:47

Labour.
Tory's have done little but beat the hell out of the poorest and youngest of society.

squaresandsquares · 11/12/2019 21:45

Labour. So many to list but mainly Save NHS

kaytola · 11/12/2019 21:41

Labour - for the many, not the few.

CanICelebrate · 11/12/2019 21:39

Tory. Labours plans are not realistic and marginally prefer BJ to JC (and fear Nicola Sturgeon having power in a coalition).

Fucket · 11/12/2019 21:38

I’ve already voted by post and for the first time ever Ive voted Tory. DH witnessed an IRA terror attack and had friends who were hurt. There’s no way I’m voting for Corbyn! Libdems have Zero chance here and they’ve sold women’s rights down the river anyway.

SabineSchmetterling · 11/12/2019 21:34

Labour. I’m in a constituency that won’t be won by anyone but Labour or the Tories. It’s generally a labour constituency but the Tories got in here in 2010 before reverting back to Labour in 2015. I’m not sure I’m happy with any of the main parties right now but won’t risk the Tories winning this seat back by spoiling a ballot or voting for the Greens.

Autumnchill · 11/12/2019 21:34

Tory. Best of a bad bunch

BrokenLink · 11/12/2019 21:32

Labourm Because I work in the NHS and have seen the devastation to services from the relentless Tory cuts. The increasingly visible signs of poverty everywhere makes me frightened and sad. I don't believe Boris cares and I don't trust a man who treats women as he appears to in his private life.

NextdoorNeighbourIsATwat · 11/12/2019 21:32

Conservative. Because the UK's businesses need support.

Fishcakey · 11/12/2019 21:28

Tory. There is no money to support Labours promises and a return to 1970s Britain scares me.

Fouroutoffour · 11/12/2019 21:27

Labour. Our constituency went from Tory to Labour in 2017 and is a marginal. I like the incumbent's policies. As a currently burnt out dual national teacher with a child that has used the NHS a lot I think we need more money for education and healthcare, and to remain.

Trottersindependenttraders · 11/12/2019 21:18

Reluctantly Labour, in a bit to reduce Johnson’s majority. I’m no fan of Corbyn or his policies but Warrington South is my constituency and it’s a marginal so lending my vote to Labour this time.

MaudBaileysGreenTurban · 11/12/2019 21:06

Labour, because I work daily across both education and the NHS and neither can cope with another 5 years of Tory government.

Fifteenthnamechange · 11/12/2019 21:04

Labour. For better public services & a more equal society

CottonSock · 11/12/2019 20:57

Labour as I did a policy check and like my MP. Not very happy about it though
