Didn't realise myself either until I read your post. Saying that, I have no idea who is standing in my area or who my current councillor is...
I will be voting Labour.

On the BBC manifesto guide i ended up firmly with the Greens, but i'll vote Labour. Local Labour MP is left-wing enough within the party to share similar views to mine, whilst not being endlessly under the influence of Miliband and his ilk.
The leaflet that came through the door the other day from the Tory candidate had him look like a right c*nt, so they need to have words with their image department.

Nope. Not interested in politics to the extent of voting; whoever is in power can't make a difference to the things that REALLY matter to me in life (a mother-in-law with a terminal disease, and a son with a condition that can't be diagnosed, for example); I'm willing to accept whatever comes my way, regardless of who is in power - I'm pretty laid back and easy going; and even if I did vote, my vote alone won't make the slightest bit of difference, given that no-one ever ties, or wins with a majority of one.
I appreciate this is a pretty extreme position to take – and one that some people will probably incandescent about, but hey ho...

If you feel that politics is just about what affects you personally then that's not extreme at all. If you feel that you're a member of society, you know, the sort of chap who waves out other motorists and doesn't drop litter, then it's a bit strange. But not extreme.

I'm too young to vote by about 8 months

I will be voting for Peter Kyle but for HIM not for Labour. I've always said I'd go for the best constituency MP. Peter is the only candidate to visit me, he's held an event at my son's Scout Hut and more or less held a surgery on the doorstep. He's helped get a crossing outside our kids' school and worked with residents in Mile Oak all before he got elected.
I am a FORMER Labour voter so you might say 'you were always going to vote for him anyway'. It's a pretty hard charge to defend so I'll just say that I think Ed Milliband will be a terrible Prime Minister and there's no way that Labour CAN'T do a deal with the SNP. However, I would expect another election by the end of the year anyway.

There is a good chance you will be voting sooner than you originally thought.
IMHO, a good way of voting and exactly the reasoning I'm using in the local election - person first, party second.

Interesting - is this the first time this election cycle that Labour have led an NSC poll?
I think your poll colours are inappropriate
(Conservative = Red, Labour = Yellow, Green = Blue )
Yes, this happens every time. They've been in the same order for years, you just need to put them in in the right order.
That's the nature of party politics, as far as I can see.

Blimey, given my Brother and Sister-in-Law are Labour Councillors and I have been much exposed to The People's Party as a consequence this could well be a serious post.

Being an ex-pat but still a UK taxpayer I've come to the conclusion no party gives a flying fig about us. I still vote, by proxy in the Stevenage constituency where I last lived, and have asked her to write on the paper 'none of the above'.
