    I'm voting Tory, but there's no chance that Manchester (where I work) will vote Tory, nor will Stockport (my constituency), they're both going to Labour.

    Labour - I am in a labour stronghold and I work for the NHS - Labour's NHS policies are much better than the wooly tory ones for the NHS - although Ed Milliband, until recently, struck me as a bit of an idiot! He came across much better recently - maybe he's a general election puppet! There won;t be a majority government no matter what I don't think!

    Unfortunately I don't qualify to get a vote over here in the Middle East, but I have been a Labour voter all my life, but the thought of Milliband running the country scares the life out of me, The guy is so far out of his depth. If I was home I would have to vote conservative...having said that minute I put pen near the ballot paper, not sure my conscious would allow me to put a X against anything Tory.

    I wish that Screaming Lord Such was still alive <ok>

    He's not, so my next choice would be BNP, but I don't think that there's a candidate in 'Sheels :emoticon-0112-wonde

    It doesn't matter who I vote for, 'cos Labour will 'get in' in 'Sheels, anyway, so I'll vote for anybody apart from the main parties, just to make a point :emoticon-0143-smirk

    I'm a member of the Labour Party so will most certainly be voting for them. They are the only viable party who actively support the less fortunate in society as well as the average working class...The problem is that in the increasingly globalised world we live in, nation state governance is having less and less influence..

    I plan on simply scrawling "ALL POLITICIANS ARE ****S" on my ballot paper in thick pen.

    My vote would make no differenceanyway, and they're all a bunch of pricks. It's impossible to know what their policies are anyway, I tried to watch a debate the other day, it was basically just "x will do this" "no we won't" - and half the time they don;t do what they say they will anyway.

    Well after 13 years of Labour power the "less fortunate" were no better off were they? The gap between the richest and the poorest widened but you deny that RAW. It's actually a waste of time voting anything other than labour up here cos its always going to be labour.
    Ar for Milliband... He's going to be way out of his depth and so is Balls and the thought of those 2 being propped up by the SNP is frightening. Milliband is a socialist by nature and too left wing for my liking. Blair got into power by leaning to the right so to speak.
    I'll put my tin hat on shall i lol. Dont forget we are all entitled to an opinion :)

    The only 'dealings' that I've had with the Labour council in 'Sheels has been with lying bastards who say what you'd like them to say (pretending to care and to be 'on your side') then do **** all . . . . the greedy 'brown envelope type' twats :emoticon-0121-angry

    p.s. I will never vote for them :emoticon-0145-shake

    I would vote SNP if I could but it is not allowed if you live in England. That seems bizarre as you can vote labour, tory, or the turncoat liberals in Scotland. Furthermore, what are Cameron and miliband complaining about they campaigned to keep Scotland in the uk , if they did not want Scottish votes to count they should have campaigned in the yes campaign for Scottish independence. So, apparently they kept Scotland in democratically( a big trick really English votes for English laws) so it would be really nice if by keeping Scotland in Cameron kicks himself out. Sort of like an own goal.
