TNS changed the way the way they conduct polls just last month owing to the ridicule they continually get for being inaccurate. They need another run at it

funny thing about you cherry picking your polls is tha TNS poll for previous week was a 11% lead on 39% to 28%. so Labour support dropped 6%, to SNP presumably.

As things stand, and as a natural Lib Dem voter, I shall be voting green for the first time in my life. I don't agree with all of their policies but they make a fine protest vote in my true blue seat and the others are all bigotted clowns (UKIP) or hypocritical unelectable muppets (Labour) or unprincipled sacks of shìt (the other two).
Yep. I'll be switching from Lib Dems to Green too.

serious question, what in the Green's policy attracts you to switch from the Lib Dems? is it simply the protest against the main two?

so just a desire to participate and vote for someone, anyone? do you agree with any of their policies?

in that position i'd rather vote Monster Raving myself, as they usually have some genuinly usful policies that would help.

I tend to agree with the environmental agenda, hence voting Green. Feel free to vote the monster raving loony party if you like. Democracy says you can vote for who you like.

As an aside, I do have a degree in politics and so do read and listen to the party policies. I'm not someone who guesses who I should vote for

Tories 5/6 in only one place now being backed again with others split between 4/5 and increasingly even shorter @ 8/11 for most seats
Labour drifting like the Kon Tiki

You can get 11-1 on Lab winning a majority: I'm having some of that. I think it will be a hung parliament but 11-1 in a two-horse race, where one horse has an in-built advantage is crazy

Polls are pointing to a Labour-SNP coalition

God help us all (south of the border, at least).

But heaven forbid that anyone would vote tactically to avoid this.

I'd vote Green simply to send a message to the main governing parties that sustainability, renewable and the environment aren't issues that can be just parked to one side when they feel like it. So it's not a protest vote for me personally at all, it would be merely a way of sending a message about something that is very important that has slipped off the political agenda.

Typical Labour lies, ignorance & not even being able to add up....with no overall @ 2/7 & Tory majority @ 11/2 (far better value) it's at least a 3 horse race

If too many Labour and LibDem voters switch allegiance to the Greens we could end up with a Conservative-UKIP coalition :eek:
