As another Socialist on this thread, I hate this scumbag filth of a government - but Labour has exactly the same policies. I literally hate them all and my local Labour MP is a 2 faced, back stabbing Zionist. I'll vote for what ever left alternative stands in my seat and failing that a begrudging Green. My conscience will be clean when Starmer starts bombing Iran.

Put the VR PlayStation down for a minute and smell the coffee.

There is a real election ahead.

Zena, Warrior Socialist ain't on the ballot. Tory boy twit is, though.

You may of course put on a red loincloth and stand yourself.

If you can stump up for the lost deposit :shrug:

Otherwise, feel free to spoil your ballot.

Peter Kyle - Labour. Partly because he's a good MP and partly because, having spent over THREE hours in the DWP phone queues, to be presented with surly, rude and down right ignorant wankers after finally getting through. There's a reason DWP stands for 'D1cks, W@nkers and Pr1cks'.
Click to expand...
I'll never forget the DWP stopping my Universal Credit after I received a notice period payment. I rang the person and they told me they were correct. I then quoted their OWN RULES to them off their website. A while later I received a call back to say it had been re-instated. Anyone who wasn't savvy about something like this would have lost over a grand in benefit entitlement.

On another occasion my father received a bill a while after my Mum died saying he had been collecting her pension. He hadn't. I called them to inform that they had been paying money onto the card but nothing had been withdrawn at this end. I was f***ing fuming. But it was hard to stay annoyed as the bloke on the other end of the phone basically agreed that were screwing up these things because of their systems. So recently bereaved and easily scared old folk were getting bills and possibly paying them because they didn't have a son two streets away who could come and deal with it.

All this goes unnoticed.

Returning to Labour after refusing to vote for Brown/Corbyn etc.. Not so much a pro Labour vote as an anti current Tory idiots vote. Although the Tories losing power is a nigh on certainty, people should not think that the Cons will get less than 10% across the electorate.

It’s a tap in for Labour which is depressing. They have been weak in opposition and can’t see them being any good in power.
That the next government will also have a rubbish opposition shows a worrying state of affairs in politics.
If the liberals or a centralist party could come forward I think they would have a fighting chance because people just want good governance

Tactical Lib Dem vote here to get rid of the Tory. Hoping for a Labour government. The country desperately needs the Tories to lose, and lose badly.

They will do…..going to be obliterated. Slightly concerned there will be no viable opposition for the new Government which is never a good thing but still better than what we have now

My first GE for over 30 years in a new constituency (Horsham). I’ll vote, but think it may be ineffective with Jeremy Quin having a 20K+ majority.

I have never voted Labour, and I won’t be starting now, I reckon Labour deserve a go but I have no confidence whatsoever in Starmer or Rayner. It could be worse…we’ll see

I’ll probably abstain, absolutely pointless voting for anything other than Labour or Conservative, so might as well not bother if you can’t

It depends where you are. I would be voting tactically Lib-Dem anti-Tory.

I don’t believe in tactical voting and I’m certainly not voting Lib Dem again. Labour it is for me (Lewes constituency)

On what did you base that? His voting record? Surely not, voting yes for Rwanda is unconscionable...voting against same sex marriage in 2013, voting yes for more offshore drilling licences....voting to ensure all the environmental protections the EU had given us are removed...against climate change protections and improving biodiversity...against raising welfare benefits in line with rising prices...increasing the state pension age...voting against a hunting ban in place.

Locally he refused to support campaigners who were trying to prevent the felling of the tree next to the Duke of Wellington so the developers could go ahead with another one of their monstrosities of apartment blocks (most of which are empty as those who really need them can't afford them)...fortunately they won anyhow without his support...He voted against more foundation hospitals...need I go on...Yes he got involved in the secondary school places fiasco, only in 2023 when it had been flagged in 2017...

What am I missing that makes him good?

James McCleary is a good candidate and nothing like Norman Baker. Look at the candidates rather than the labels.

If you mean a Mims Davies, she is off to the new EG and Uckfield constituency. She saw the writing on the wall after the local elections last year. Kristy Adams is the Tories less than convincing replacement candidate. As I mentioned earlier, the polls in Mid Sussex suggest (remarkably) a three way contest
Click to expand...
As an adjunct to Mims Davies jumping ship (again) to a perceived safer seat, I noticed Jonathan Ash-Edwards, erstwhile undistinguished leader of Mid Sussex District Council, will be standing for the role of Police and Crime Commissioner.

In Hertfordshire.

Sometimes politics defies parody.

Horsham council went Lib Dem last year and boundary changes mean some of the hard blue rural villages have shifted to another constituency. It’s a long shot but it’s not as safe as it used to be.

Loony Labour will steal the election so it doesn't matter how we vote. Sissy Starmer looked at Sleepy Joe's Demonic Democrats for inspiration and I know they will rig the votes. As a staunch constitutional Conservative, I'm ready to die to uphold the Magners Carta.

Meh, not bothering to vote here or at the time of the election.
I understand that withdraws my right for me to moaning about whoever is in power, they are all the same and none of them speak for me.
Tory are too right wing
Labour are too right wing and I am not a fan of the far left.
Lib Dems are wishy washy.
Greens is a wasted vote.
Reform what !
