Ok, now I don't like any of the parties at the moment and they seem to be very similar (red Tories/blue Labour etc).

However, if there was a GE tomorrow I would vote Lib Dems because my local MP is Lib Dem and is really good, listens to voters and has done a lot of good work for the area. I don't rate them at a national level and don't agree with most of their policies but locally my MP (who just happens to be Lib Dem) is definitely the best choice.

Who would you vote for if there was a GE tomorrow?

Glad I have the option to vote SNP. Could never vote Tory, haven't voted Labour since slimey Tony took over, LibDems are not impressive atm, don't know if UKIP would even stand in my constituency...

Labour, as I have every other year.

Labour. The tories are dismantling the NHS, and schools, and benefits.

If you want to end up paying to see a doctor at the point of need, then by all means go with the tories...if you want sick people to have no safety net then go with the tories.

I do wonder what people will do in 2015.

FlapJackFlossie · 10/09/2013 17:46

My God, some people have short memories! Remember Gordon Brown.....who could forget the damage he did. A lot of people obviously !

Rooners · 10/09/2013 17:47

Actually Scotland is looking great from down here. I think I might move.

Rooners · 10/09/2013 17:47

Gordon Brown was an aberration. The policies remain far more humanitarian than conservative ones.

We do pay to see a GP here.

And its a much better system. People don't go to the Doctors for any little thing, you get an appointment that day, and the GP service is far better because you are paying for it.

Everyone has a safety net because you can have an account with the doctors and pay it off slowly. Also if you are income support you can get increased payments if you have a life long condition. We also have no prescription charges.

Increased payments? Could you clarify, I assume that's a typo?

OhYouBadBadKitten · 10/09/2013 17:57

I honestly don't know. If the Lib Dems had stuck to their principles then them, but they didnt and I felt betrayed. Can't stand Tory or Labour and no Green candidate around here. I feel completely unrepresented at the moment.

SNP. Thank God I don't have to choose any of the English parties.

eretrew · 10/09/2013 18:02

Lib Dem

DrinkFromMyFountain · 10/09/2013 18:03

Conservative 100%. Labour fucked us over once, I'm sure as hell not going to vote for them to do it again!

pooka · 10/09/2013 18:05

Labour.

Lib dem used to be my "anyone but Tory" local vote (live in very conservative area). But i shan't be doing that again.
