You'll get responses from more normal people here. Once it gets moved to the Politics forum, the 10 who dwell there will give stock answers....

Labour.

Although the lib dems are closer to what I agree with, as they only got just over 200 votes in my constituency last time I fear voting for them would be a waste of time.

So I'm voting Labour as they've the best chance of unseating my local Tory

Labour, although I still haven't forgiven them for 1997, so I'll be watching with interest. None of the main parties really fit with my politics though, but I'd rather anyone than the Tories.

Inrerestingly Re: the test of the population; a lot of my work colleagues seem to be saying that they will vote for Labour.

Strange how you ask about that but couldn't give a shit about people using food banks...yep forget it your just to selfish to vote anything other then tory.

Most people who vote Tory either do it from a form of Tribalism....or have no moral compass that says you should help those less blessed than yourself... There is no ideas...just pull up the ladder Jack

I want to vote for the Labour Manifesto.... but your talk of pulling up the ladder just reminds me of Corbyn who went to a selective, boarding Grammar School....and Abbott who sends her offspring to private school while saying others shouldn't. It makes decisions hard!

Completely wrong. Tribalism? My parents always voted Labour yet I have always voted Tory so how does that work? I vote Tory to help people. Under Labour governments unemployment ALWAYS rises (well, apart from the one just after the war, but that was because of all the rebuilding needed) and people always end up poorer. Another poster mentioned food banks but they were introduced under the last Labour government. So were zero hours contracts. The last Labour government's open door immigration policy also had a negative effect on society and on the lowest paid workers. If you want people to suffer and be kept down 'in their place' then vote Labour

I've voted ukip at pretty much every election going for around the last 10 years. It was all about bringing about Brexit with ukip. Not voting ukip this time though, now its got to be Conservative to deliver the Brexit we voted for in the EU referendum. Tribalism has nothing to do with it for me, this is the Brexit general election.

"Still undecided...all of the major parties have policies that I both strongly agree and disagree with. I will vote but I'd prefer a 'none of the above' option

Same though, i'm slowly edging towards labour.

I can forgive the innocence of youth when thinking that voting Labour is a good idea but aren't you old enough to know better?

As they are truly the only ones they lookout for!

And old enough to remember Callaghan. How did that government work out? Do you not remember the job losses, the strikes, the inflation, the hospitals closing and nurses losing their jobs etc etc?"

You could be describing Britain under the witch....remind me what level inflation reached under Thatcher....

I shall vote Labour, despite the fact that a donkey with a blue rosette would win here

up to a point i would have agreed with you... my starting point was always "could i see myself ever voting for corbyn?" and the answer at the beginning was no.....but a few things for me have changed...

1) I do like the labour manifesto... and I think it shows their are enough people in high positions that the far left of the party can be checked..... plus some of the bigger hitting moderates would have to be brought back into high positions....

I think if it was left to corbyn it would go a lot further left than it did...

2) i can't believe i am going to say this, McDonnell doesn't scare me as a potential chancellor.... i don't think any of the stuff he has proposed is too outlandish (45p at 85K, 50p at 150K)

think about the U turns hammond has had to make..... he is beholdened to a tax slashing part of his party.....

3) yes, abbott is the one that does worry me..... but if corbyn was smart, thats where i would see if someone like yvette cooper would come back into government.....

Corbyn is not that smart though. It's all about who has remained Loyal to him over the years and Diane Abbott is one of his acolytes. She would definitely get a top job in his cabinet.

Cameron and Osborne have already gone, no prospect of them becoming an MP so they are irrelevant to this election. There is also no prospect of Michael Gove getting a position in the cabinet should the tories win the election. Bojo is one of the most well liked and popular politicians in the country so not sure why you included him in the list?

We will have to wait and see on that one.

Where I disagree with you is on this being all about brexit... there is a lot more going on here then just brexit as in the NHS, in work benefits cuts, policing cuts....but it's all not bad as there will be further tax cuts for the few.

It is everyones right to vote, whoever you vote for, I am sure you are voting in the interests of your local area. Just remember you need to hold those you elect to account and ensure that the agenda you have chosen is followed. Remember they work for the communities they serve.

We have a recession every 7 years, give or take, who is in power is irrelevent. Generally it is a major one, mini one, major, mini, and so on. Basically we are due a mini one in the next 3-4 years, 5 at a push. Its hiw we handle each recession that is important.

The only people who have pissed on the working class for the last 60 years are the Labour party I suppose they improved my german and i shagged a few german girls and i made more money than back home.We could rebrand it as tough love from maggie.

Get on your bike and fuck off out to Germany.It'll make a man out of you..."

You'll be saying that closing the mines was a bad thing next

My grandfather was a miner and he hated scargill for allowing his mine to be closed to prevent coal mines up north being closed.It was a dieing industry and had its day.However the miners were treated appallingly by the tories and by scargill.

I was a miner. For a week. It is no life for anybody or for anybody's son. The miners I knew were treated well by the Tories as far as redundancy packages went and most went on to do ok or well for themselves

no ... i mean, in 1980 britain rapidly went to shit and stayed there for a decade and a half

I take it you don't remember the end of the 70's then?

in 1980 britain rapidly went to shit and stayed there for a decade and a half

Lol, 3rd time lucky hopefully

Not a chance. What a terrible life you must have"

No, sadly I still don't think you comprehend that 1980 is after 'the end of the 1970s'.

My life is not too bad. Thanks for your concern.

My parents worked for the nhs during the Thatcher period. They saw privatisation of the health service. All the great British doctors went to private. The instruments paid by the NHS went to private hospital. Talk about using tax money to finances the rich. Donors were sold privately before going to the waiting list.

Sounded horrendous.

I was going to vote Labour. But then i heard about the "garden tax", and now i'll probably vote ukip, or communist or something weird.

Why? It seems like a pretty fair and straight forward system if Labour decide to go with it.

How? Encouraging people to sell their gardens to avoid massive hikes in council tax?

I'm still undecided.Doubt it will be Labour or Conservative though,Corbyn is a limp-wristed terrorist sympathizer and May would feed the poor to the lions if she could get away with it.Problem is,the alternatives aren't really any better

A 'NONE' vote. Making it absolutely clear on my paper.. and so it cannot be misinterpreted as a 'voter undecided' ballot.

Unlike thousands of others, who do not even know how to spoil their vote properly. (Google it!!)

Roll on the day we can have a 'None of the above' option.

"Still undecided...all of the major parties have policies that I both strongly agree and disagree with. I will vote but I'd prefer a 'none of the above' option

Same though, i'm slowly edging towards labour.

I can forgive the innocence of youth when thinking that voting Labour is a good idea but aren't you old enough to know better?

As they are truly the only ones they lookout for!"

And it's that inability of Corbyn's Labour to truly understand people and their motives for voting the way they do which is why, in mid term election which Labour should have walked, they're struggling to even hold onto the seats they currently have.

I'm voting LibDem this time.

Polls are a load of crap

What did the polls say in the referendum

What did the polls saying the American election

And what are the polls saying for this election

Actually they're not crap but you have to understand them properly. Most poles have a margin of error of 4 percentage points. What this means is that, while the pols suggested remain would win by about 51% to leaves 49% what that actually meant is that remain would get between 47% and 55% and leave would get between 45% and 53%. The actual result was remain 48% and leave 52%, which is within the 4 percentage range.

Currently, in the best pole from labours point of view, they are still 6 percentage points behind and still heading for a big loss. Things may move in their favour more over the next 9 days but u till that gap gets to less than 4 points they're still definitely heading for a loss.
