If you are a teacher, or a doctor, or nurse, or ANY

[Ilove]

Public servant at all

Have you voted conservative?

Or Labour

And which way would you vote next time?

Currently watching “school”

Was a supply teacher, now a nanny

Always voted Labour

Retired public servant. Have never voted Conservative but I couldn't vote Labour with Corbyn at the top.

Worked in NHS before joining the world of education and come from a family of civil servants/NHS workers. Will never vote Tory. Not that it makes a blind bit of difference in my area. Turkeys voting for Christmas round here. Who then complain about the reductions in their services!

I have always voted Labour but there is no way I would vote for the current shower.

In a weird way I do respect the Tories more, as in at least they are fairly open that they are just going to do what they want and have no qualms about who the fuck over in the process. However, I can't forgive them for what they have done to the education system.

So I'm pretty politically homeless at the moment. Labour need to sort themselves out, get rid of the woke bros, get some grown ups in and actually provide something credible.

Civil servant here too and have always voted labour or green. Also an 'anything but the tories' voter.

With such a lack of choice, there's a huge gap for a new party. Can it be done?
I don't have family money, working class background and mining family. Surely someone will do it?

A Mumsnet party maybe?! 😂

I have voted a mix throughout my career. Prob mostly Lib Dem as I'm often not keen on the labour leaders!

And yes I've voted Tory in the past.

I found this speech very powerful - this fine man died this week.

Tony Blair and PFI was possibly the biggest disaster to befall the NHS.
TB was a tory anyway. He made a calculated decision to go for Labour based on pure self interest.
There is nobody to vote for now. We are descending into chaos.
There are/ were some good women in the labour party and they have all been sidelined.

I'm a nurse. Never voted Tory, have voted Labour in the past, but won't again. Corbyn is appalling, they have zero credibility and they hate women.

I have no one to vote for now.

Lib dem until last election, when I voted labour (for the 'greater good', I hate FPTP).

Teacher.

Obviously have never voted Tory, they hate us

Floated between Lab/LD/Green in various elections but very wary of all of them at the moment because of the self-ID stuff.

I will still never vote Conservative.

I’m NHS. I cannot vote for labour with Corbyn at the helm. Also the labour PFI disaster puts me off. If they sort themselves I may vote for them again.

Y bother to spoil ballot paper ? Waste of time

Paramedic, never voted labour, I remember the misery of the 70s too well. have voted conservative but didn’t last time.

I'd vote for a party that was supporting true Proportional Representation, but that's not going to happen. Tired of the 'same shit, different face' nature of politics.
Always voted Labour or Lib Dem tactically, never voted Tory.
Would like to be able to support Greens, but not now, not after their treatment of women and the David Challenor case.
Same situation with Labour and Lib Dem, WEP.
I believe all parties are selling us down the river as women.
Politically homeless and fucked off/depressed about it as I've always been politically active.
Like previous posters, I'd love a new party to emerge from all this.

blobby the Tories were in power for precisely half of the 1970s: 1970-1974, then 1979. The 3 day week was under Ted Heath, Tory PM.

So the miserable 1970s were only 50% Labour's fault. Your premise doesn't make sense.

Nurse, always voted Labour. Live in Wales under a Welsh Labour government who wo nt take responsibility for the state Wales is in. Keep bleating in about the EU money we are going to lose post brexit when I think they should be finding ways of getting quality jobs into the country and not a few heavily subsidised firms who pay their employees a decent wage, but are impossible to get into due to the blatant nepotism involved in them.
Considering voting Plaid, but I don't agree with many of their policies.

I do wish the Lib Dems would get their act together and grow strong again, I think there is so much will for a centrist party & many of their policies align with so many people's views.

Momentum scares me.
All the major parties' stance on self ID terrifies me.
I feel as if I am in a parallel universe.
One if the many awful things about the Brexit farce is that everything else is falling apart either due to sheer incompetence or sinister and cynical machinations by people who are taking advantage.
I am really fearful of the future.
I wish there was a party I could vote for but I feel disenfranchised.

I'm an HCA in the NHS & I would vote labour but they have no chance in my constituency so I vote Lib Dem.

I'd describe myself as an Antifa Feminist Socialist Remainer, I support organisations such as Unite Against Fascism BUT I'm no Corbynista... I think he's a bit of a dinosaur & attracts too many anti semites for my liking.

I would like Labour to win but would prefer it if it wasn't Corbyn & Momentum.
But I definitely don't want another disaster Tory Govt. their policies have lead to poverty & deaths. Shocking.

By the way my dads MP is Christopher Chope. My dads a lifelong working class Tory voter but he is horrified by Chope's recent behaviour. Dads talking about spoiling his ballot paper.
The daft thing is that dads actual views seem to lean towards the Left but he can't see it, also he's a Remainer like me.

It’s the bit from 1974-1979 I remember.

I used to vote green, as i lived in a hipster area where they may have stood a chance, and the bloke standing was actually a good bloke.

Then they did the not-women thing, and again i am politically homeless.

I may start voting for the moster racing loony party, as frankly their policies make as much sense as the rest.

I'm a LibDem voter and party member. I also wish they would get their act together.

I have voted Labour in council and the London mayoral elections. I dislike Corbyn and his cronies intensely. I would never vote Tory, partly because my ancestors would probably rise-up and haunt me.

Used to vote Labour. Not anymore- the whole party is a joke!

Teacher- labour all the way.
