A lot has been happening politically over the past few weeks so I thought I would run a new poll to see how NSC users would vote were the General Election tomorrow.

I like the fact it's a public poll - good call.

Interesting to see not one liberal yet

To be honest, you could probably have missed them off the list completely, I cannot imagine anyone voting for them again

Normally labour though and though but seriously considering voting UKIP
 




There could be a lot more tactical voting at the next general election. How you vote might depend on what constituency you live in. For example, eurosceptic Tories might attract votes from folk who might otherwise vote for UKIP. LibDems in Lewes might continue to attract Labour voters to keep the Tories out. Green supporters in Hove might vote Labour.

Asking people how they will vote isn't asking the same question as asking who they want to win the election.

Exactly.

I'm voting for the candidate most likely to ensure a UKIP defeat in my constituency, whoever that may be.

Bearing in mind what was said after the last two by-elections ...

"Vote UKIP and get Labour" (Cameron);
"Vote Conservative and get Labour" (Farage);
"Vote Labour" (Miliband) …

… it's difficult to see anything but a Labour landslide looming.
 






No. I refuse to vote tactically. You are supposed to vote for the mp you want to represent you at parliment. If you do anything else you are part of the problem.
We really do need a better voting system to stop this nonsene.
MPs represent individual voters? When did that come about? Candidates stand as representatives of political parties. And when they get to parliament, they mostly continue to represent their party.

If you are saying that a Labour voter cannot expect a Tory MP to ask a question in the house, then you do not know what you are talking about. I have seen it done. Many many times.
