Encouraged to post this after a very nice chap knocked on my door from the lib dems to ask how I would be voting in the local by elections.

I said I had been a Labour voter for years but was concerned about their attitude towards women. I’m also a bit of a shy Tory, but in all honesty I don’t know which way I will vote next. Everything is such a mess at the moment politically.

In your opinion, what party has the most female (as in adult human female) friendly policies?

Going online it seems the Lib Dem’s want to increase childcare provision, scrap the 2 child cap on benefits etc. ALL of the major parties seem to have drank the TRA’s cool aid. Would be really interested in other women’s thoughts.

I can't get past the total acceptance of genderism to examine the rest of the policies of the three main parties. Then, the total fuck up that is Brexit adds another layer, where I feel like none of the current politicians are capable enough to be doing the job.

In the local elections I only have a choice of the three main parties. I had hoped for an independent candidate campaigning on a local issue, but no luck in my ward. So I really really don't know who to vote for, and I hate the idea of not voting. So no idea what to do.

Didn't the Communist Party publish something positive a few months back?

While I appreciate your stance happy, not voting is not an option for me. Although it seems at the moment that there are no good options, I couldn’t bring myself to withdraw from the process all together.

Politician's will promise the earth to get elected then do nothing, with the carry on with Brexit by every party i won't be voting again, they are not respecting the leave vote.
