    Each polling station only serves a handful of streets etc. I would only imagine a trickle through the day.

    Mine had about 15/20 streets listed.

    I vote this afty. I'm now in two minds and I keep swapping them around in my head.

    Do I vote Labour, or do I spoil my paper by just scrawling 'Allams Out' on it?

    I voted at 10-30am, and when I asked if they'd been busy they told me they'd had more by that time than usually turn up in the whole day.

    The views expressed in my posts care not necessarily mine.

    I've heard a few Tory journalist say the Tories are worried about older people turn out because of the weather.

    If people are voting there is no Parliament to dissolve & no MPs to sack.

    Don't know when the thread closes so I'd just like to thank everyone who has contributed and been respectful of the wide range of opinions. I always follow elections and have found this interesting, City fans are a broad church. Thanks to Leon for a good innings on behalf of Labour but nothing would ever convince me to vote for them, I've backed Michelle Dewberry today. Just hope the next parliament manages to heal a lot of the division in our country and we achieve peace and prosperity. Cheers.

    I know it's antidote evidence. But I keep hearing on Twitter of big queue at polling stations. If I was a Tories I'd be slightly nervous about that.

    The original was on Meg Hillier's twitter, but it was taken down when the shoe issue was pointed out.

    I'd say this was taken on the same day. it's not conclusive.
