In the last few elections I’ve spoiled my ballot in frustration at the lack of local candidates who believe that women don’t have penises. Historically I would have always voted for the Lib Dems or Labour. Realistically in my seat no-one is likely to beat the LibDems (Alex Cole Hamilton’s seat) but I’m wondering if there is anyone/any party with sensible left leaning policies who doesn’t believe in gender woo.
Has anyone else seen anyone that could be worth voting for?

Same here, either spoilt ballot or peg on nose, I spoilt it in the last GE which felt such a waste.

Crikey that’s pretty worrying, I didn’t think Reform would poll so highly here.

I will vote for whoever is most likely to oust the SNP.

Here in Argyll&Bute the SNP is unassailable it seems, Jenni Minto 🙄

I'm in the same place as you OP, ACH seems undefeatable doesn't he - no idea why he's so wedded to the gender ideology. I vote for the least worst person.

My local labour candidate is a retired breast cancer surgeon who I had to see quite a few years ago. I wasn’t sure who to vote gor until I got his leaflet. The Scottish Greens are utter crackpots, Shouty Swinney-nope, I will never vote Tory so it was difficult.

Sorry Op, I am in the same boat, different constituency. I try to focus on voting for the person, but this time, I think the choice will be abysmal.

Would be the same for Westminster elections.
