    Default Who would you vote for?

    With the news that Labour have lost the by-election in Norwich North to the Conservatives I would like to know who you would vote for at the next general election. Post a comment saying who you voted for and why if you want. Also, I would ask that you consider who you really think would be best in charge, and not just vote in a reactionary way.

    I'd vote Labour by the way.

    Not voting. Britian is broken and I am planning to get out in the next few years so I dont end up propping up the mess that Labour have got us in.

    Bring back Guy Fawkes I say, everyone deserves a second chance.

    What I find most interesting about this, is that a large section of the voters voted for a party which has no real chance of getting into power - like UKIP, SNP, and Lib Dem. To me, it just seems like you are wasting your vote by voting for one of them.

    Erm .. the SNP are in power in Scotland aren't they ?, are they not as popular in Scotland as Neu Arbeit ??, but I see what you are getting at. Maybe its because people are sick of the three regular parties, their constant lies and waffling and are looking for a change.

    I personally am so sick of our current Goverment that I want to leave the UK and go elsewhere. Its like being ruled by the cast of The Muppet Show.

    Yeah, I was talking about the General Election, sorry if I didn't make that clear. I think even if they won all of Scotland at a General Election, it would need to take some sort of 5 way tie in England and Wales for them to get power. Although I seriously dislike the SNP, that would be quite a funny occurrence.

    Why ask the question in the first place ?, or was it to get cannon fodder for your views.

    I'm disappointed to see that BNP has 2 votes.

    In a democracy I'm free to vote for whichever party I feel like, whether you like it or not-even if I'm doing it just to be awkward. Life's harsh, learn to deal with it.

    Okay, calm down.

    In through the nose, out through the mouth.

    Although, I doubt you've seen the picture of the BNP founder in a full Nazi uniform in front of a Swastika nazi-saluting a picture of Hitler? The BNP are racist, fascist neo-nazis.

    There is a party in this country that are a lot like the Nazi's.

    They attempt to control our every thought, they tell us what to do, say, think, act, eat, drink and smoke. They have turned the Police into little more than enforcers of their political will. They write laws that are then manipulated to watch, monitor and even prosecute the man in the street at their whim. They have shown they are completely intolerant of anyone who dares to disagree with them. They have wrecked a country through policies with holes in them so large a blind man could see them. They have sold the assets of the country to make a cheap buck. Even when it is obvious to everyone else what the situation is they are adamant that everything is going to be OK. They have a leader utterly detached from reality who has led the country into a state so bad it will take decades to recover.

    Spooky isnt it ??

    Welcome to Britian under New Labour, or as I call them .. Neu Arbeit.

    No. I asked because I was curious about people's opinions, and I find it very interesting that Labour is ahead in the poll considering how in the rest of the country people seem to hate Labour. Curiosity never killed anybody.

    True. And I'm also free to say that anyone who votes BNP (for real) is a disgrace to humanity.

    Utter crap. I've previously voted Labour even though I didn't agree with all their policies. You don't know me so how can you say I'm a disgrace to humanity because I may vote BNP?

    You could spend all your time feeding and caring for the homeless, but that wouldn't matter if you voted for a bunch of racist and anti-Semites. I don't need to know you. The same way I didn't need to know Hitler. I spy Godwin's Law.
