To ask who you are voting for?

[I5itm3]

Labour
Tories
Lib Dem
Green
Reform
SNP (Scotland)

And why?

Spot on.

Bye bye all protections for women and pregnant women, it’s been nice knowing you.

Lib Dems - our local one is a really great woman and they are the only party who mention rejoining EU. Could be a complete pipe dream but it’s got to be better than resigning myself to the shitshow that is Brexit.

Which of the Reform policies are you voting for?

I’m voting for our independent candidate, who is currently an excellent local councillor. Labour will easily win the seat, so I don’t have to vote tactically.

This is the hardest vote in a long time. I cannot vote for a party who doesn’t know what a women is - so that’s labour out. The Green Party are full of green haired loons. Our local Lib Dem is an absolute joke. Looks like blue for me.

i do not fully support any manifesto. But I will not waste a vote.

if Labour get in, girls and women’s rights are going to be destroyed 💔

Green Party

Strong Tory seat but supposedly Labour are neck and neck with them. Not sure I believe it as the Labour candidate is a woman from London with no ties or experience of a largely rural constituency like ours and doesn't live here. I'll be voting for her begrudgingly as no one else stands a chance and I'd like the VERY wet Tory yes man out.

Labour, I vote based on local issues and our local mp is a good one.

Lib dem

Not what I was expecting but after reading each manifesto it was my favourite. Particularly regarding looked after children, kinship care and children with disabilities which are issues important to me. It is also the only party with a candidate who actually lives in our town.

Very, very reluctantly voting Tory for the first time ever. I really wanted to vote Labour but I’m not voting for a party that’s hellbent on taking away women’s rights. Ditto LibDems or Greens.

I’m in despair that we don’t have a left of centre party to vote for that will safeguard women’s rights. Democracy has failed.

Sadly not, or they’d likely have got my vote. Or a decent independent, but there isn’t one of them either.

Labour, because I believe in a system that benefits the many over the few.

This, historically has been the entire point of the labour party, how do you not understand this? Corbyn wasn't a bogey man he was just old school labour.

Unfortunately I don’t think even national humiliation will convey that to them.

After much deliberation, I am starting to think I'll vote Tory. Not because I think they can win (obviously) but because I think if Reform get a lot of the right-wing vote the Conservatives will move in that direction, and I think we need a centre-right party in opposition rather than a far-right racist, misogynistic party. I'm a lot more frightened of Reform getting a significant result than I am gleeful about the the Tories being humiliated, tbh. Tories are also the only party who seem to have any interest at all in female rights; I am extremely worried about Labour's attitude to women and think we need a strong opposition if there's any hope of keeping them in check. Although I am of course aware that expecting the Conservatives to be a strong anything is absurd!

Torn between labour and greens.
Not a hells chance I'm voting Tory. Never have and never will.

Why on earth do you need to know, OP? You wouldn't ask someone in real life, so why on here?
And it's not as if Mumsnet could possibly reflect the entire country and all 650 constituencies!

Can anyone please explain why Labour are bad for women’s rights? Or is this perhaps transphobia? I haven’t come across any policies impacting women from them so wonder if I’ve missed anything

🙄

Why do you equate women's rights with transphobia?

I'm very happily voting Labour.

Anyone who spoils their vote or doesn't vote doesn't get to moan about the result.
