I'm going to vote for an MP that supports Brexit and leaving the customs union and single market. What about the rest of you?

I'm a floating voter. Until recently I didnt know that all these groups with parties existed like the ERG or the cornerstone group. I think I'll think twice or three times and do a lot more research before voting. It's not at all transparent about what you are voting for

Blinkingblimey · 02/04/2019 10:58

Pro remain, whoever that may be.

Littleoakhorn · 02/04/2019 10:59

I’m in a marginal constituency with an ERG conservative MP. I’ll be voting for whoever can oust the nasty little man.

Blinkingblimey · 02/04/2019 11:02

Omg - why do people keep coming up with the whole ‘if we don’t leave democracy is dead’ line. It only demonstrates a total lack of understanding of actual democracy🤦🏼‍♀️.... sorry, took the bait - hook, line and sinker😬

Anybody but Labour. Shame really because my MP is pretty good but I cannot and will not risk Corbyn and Co ending up in charge.

Bornfreebutinchains · 02/04/2019 20:56

How many people don't want corybn in charge.
It's astonishing.
I'd have to have a media blackout. I cannot bear him.

So disengenious. So slippery. I'm not sure who's worse, him or Blair.

SimonJT · 02/04/2019 20:57

My ex and I used to fancy Corbyn, that was before he revealed himself as anti-semetic and a general cock. There is genuinely no one to vote for.

whohaa · 02/04/2019 21:08

Labour

Kazzyhoward · 03/04/2019 11:48

I think that all the main parties should agree to new leaders to stand for the next general election. None of them are competent and if we're not careful, we'll end up with another hung Parliament where minority parties once again hold power which is not good for the country.

Get rid of May, Corbyn and Cable, and start afresh. None of them are fit to run a booze up in a brewery. Their parties should be ashamed of making them their leaders.

BillywigSting · 03/04/2019 11:52

Labour because our labour mp is actually pretty decent and his voting record is commendable

DonaldTwain · 03/04/2019 12:50

Democracy is not dead,it just doesn’t mean (and never has meant) majority opinion overrides minority rights or national interest.
We generally do not govern by plebiscite in this country and it’s a pity we ever went down that road at all.

Yaralie · 03/04/2019 18:15

If Corbyn sells out to May and her brexiters and agrees to any deal without a People's Vote he will be finished and so will the Labour Party.

heidivodca · 03/04/2019 18:42

Labour

MenstruatorExtraordinaire · 03/04/2019 18:49

I usually vote for Labour and my labour MP is actually really nice but I couldn't vote for labour this time because I don't want Corbyn to get in and also because I just think it would be a disaster for women they would introduce self ID straight away without any consultation.

Oooohhh...i like it!

CoachBombay · 03/04/2019 19:26

UKIP 100% Party of the people, the best choice there is....

I'm just kidding, I'd rather shit in my hands and clap. Plaid Cymru probably.

SunnyInGrimsby · 03/04/2019 19:28

I'm hearing good things about the SDP (socially liberal, good on animal rights, pro Brexit) or else the Brexit Party if it is up and running.

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 03/04/2019 19:30

coach

I read your name and the first line of your post and panicked

I thought maybe you'd been taken over aliens...or possibly you'd been kidnapped and were making a call for help

CoachBombay · 03/04/2019 19:34

Rufus 😂😂 I'm blinking ferociously to be saved from my fellow leave constituents....

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 03/04/2019 20:23

Wow THe AHGTBBTT sounds brilliant.

Perhaps needs a more snappy acronym.

AnnaNutherThing · 04/04/2019 09:00

Technically democracy will still exist as in there will be traditional elections to the HoP but I really don't see why anyone who voted for Brexit WOULD bother voting.

It's been a growing trend to not vote as "it changes nothing!" The failure to actually manage exiting the EU surely shows the impotence of modern UK level politicians and government in the modern world?

Elections to Westminster move to being more like local elections and consequently you would expect less engagement all round. If you wanted a UK independent of the EU it could be your watershed moment. (SNP have more evidence that Westminster is a redundant layer of bureaucracy, time for it to downgrade to rUK parliament?)

I'm all for Red's manifesto. (Except for fracking.)
