To ask who you're voting for next May?

[NickiFury]

Me, Labour.

SNP. No question.

The thought of a Con/UKIP coalition, or even another 4-5 years of Conservative rule, fills me with despair and fear.

I wish there was a credible alternative. I feel unrepresented by the parties on offer. I'm leaning towards Green although I don't agree with all their policies.

I want a party that cares about social justice, that will preserve the NHS, that will prevent backward steps being taken in the arenas of tolerance, equality and human rights, that will protect the vulnerable and powerless in society rather than demonising them and that can display a measure of fiscal aptitude. And while I'm wishing, I'd like a flying pony :(

I could never vote UKIP or Tory. I'm not a usual Labour voter but have been reading about what parties have campaigned for and against in their history.

New labour doesn't seem to be anything like the Labour of the past though. Just using the same name :(

Labour

SNP

Labour, begrudgingly. A Tory/UKIP coalition is the stuff of nightmares.

I will continue to vote Green in the Euro and local elections (to soothe my conscience if nothing else).

Interesting article for UKIP supporters.
(Not a Mail article)

I have no idea.

I'm a classic floating voter. I've voted for about 4 different parties in my life. I'd like to vote labour but can't bring myself too. If they changed their leader even at this late stage I may be tempted.

I'm considering Tory. I voted Lib Dem last time but think they're totally ineffectual.
It won't be UKIP, however I know lots of people who are seriously considering UKIP.

I'm pretty certain we'll have another hung parliament and another pretty awful coalition

Labour, for two reasons.

A) Lifelong Labour supporter and genuinely dont see any real alternative to the Tories at the moment, although I am despairing of Miliband and unhappy with some of the party's key policies.

Also, in my area, there is a truly nasty Tory MP and the Tories have control of the council and are absolutely VILE. We MUST get them out, and Labour are the only party that will do that here. Lib Dem have lost support after the last election and UKIP (thankfully) and Green (sadly) get paltry support here.

I am very disillusioned with them all, though, as I am sure are lots of people.

I don't think that's going to help, dawndonna;- if UKIP voters were interested in fact- based evidence, they wouldn't be voting UKIP.

Isn't that quite an assumption stubborn. You're assuming UKIP voters are being duped but maybe they just agree with right wing policy?

The problem with that, I think, bowlers, is not so much the policies that UKIP put forward, as the deliberately misleading spin that they put in their propaganda, making wild assertions without actually linking them to any credible research.

"We would be stronger outside the EU" - stated as an actual fact. And based on.....any evidence at all? It always boggles me that I live in an area with a lot of UKIP support - which is also one of only 2 areas in the UK to receive direct EU subsidies due to its low GDP (there are 10 such regions in the EU). Erm.....intellectual disconnect, at all?

Probably Green. I'm one of many who voted LibDem last time, got screwed over and now looking around for a liberal party to take my vote. I hate the way that Labour can't stop dancing to the Tories' tune, who in turn are aping UKIP, who are just disgusting.

I don't think that's going to help, dawndonna;- if UKIP voters were interested in fact- based evidence, they wouldn't be voting UKIP.

I expect they will gloss over it like Labour supporters do when faced with articles linked earlier to the poverty gap increasing under Labour.

Its a whole pie as well, the social side, the capacity of the country side, services and so on. Money isnt the be all and end all.

SNP, never again will I vote labour.

Labour

Labour. They piss me off but are the best of a very bad bunch and are most in line with my values.

stubborn fair enough, you think UKIP are actively pulling the wool over voters eyes rather than recognising a sort of right wing party gap in politics which (some of) the general public are looking for (I think that's what you mean)

Both, I think, bowlers. But I think UKIP voters are complicit in this wool pulling, in the sense that they have no interest in learning the facts. They just want their lazy prejudices confirmed.

Lib Dem.

I don't support everything the coalition has done by a long chalk, but it has been better than 5 years of undiluted Tories - especially with Cameron under pressure to pander to the UKIP element.

And yes, taking low earners out of tax was a Lib Dem policy.

It's v. harsh to complain about Lib Dem 'betrayal' etc - if everyone had voted for them and they'd formed a government, then I'm sure they would have abolished tuition fees etc etc.
But they only form 20% of the government, so they got 20% of the policies (if that). Bloody democracy.

Green. Unless I think that UKIP have a chance in my constituency - in which csse I'll bolster the Lib Dem vote.

Boulevard I agree

I'm undecided. Depends on whether Cameron pulls his finger out and actually does something about immigration and the nonsense of the UK paying £1.7billion to the EU.

Lib Dem. It's either Tory or Lib Dem in my constituency and I would never vote Tory.

@ OOAOML , Yes the Lib Dems have also hidden and defended paedophiles and sex abusers. I didn't mention them as very few people seemed to be voting for them anyway.

I am concerned that we will never get to the bottom of this current sex abuse scandal if the tories or labour get back in...

What is the alternative? I really don't know.
