Re: Euro Votes
There is only one party to vote for today, it’s as clear as the skies outside my house.

Re: Euro Votes
I think Labour have it right by trying to bring the country together rather than childishly taking sides.

Re: Euro Votes
I always get a postal vote as I’m never sure if I’ll be in the country. So I cast mine about 10 days ago.

Personally I want a political party who sets out a plan that attracts people even if I don’t agree. Haven’t got a clue what Labour really stands for right now.

Re: Euro Votes
Meh.
I'll vote, as I always do, whilst wondering why on earth I bother. Actually, I do know why I bother and its more to stop the parties I don't like than actually voting for anything I do. I have no faith in parliament or the political system as a whole but if I must choose who's going to disappointment me I'll opt for the one who is trying least hard. That'd be Labour, then.

Re: Euro Votes
I'll vote but haven't made my mind up yet. Probably Labour just to counter the Farage whackos but not happy on their EU stance so tempted by the Greens. Probably have them as second preference.

Re: Euro Votes
Anything except Farage / Ukip / Tory is likely to receive my blessing.
Oh and #changeuk as well. Splitters of the highest order.

Re: Euro Votes
I will vote, because I'm a believer that you can't moan about the system unless you've taken part - to the extent that if someone has not voted in a number of elections I believe they should be disenfranchised from the vote. Personally, I think voting should be compulsory.

Re: Euro Votes
Neither do they doh nut, do they want Brexit or don't they want Brexit? Who knows cos they certainly don't. Just as split as the Tories are.dOh Nut wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2019 9:46 amSitting on the fence in the middle. About right.

Re: Euro Votes
Well be prepared for a very disappointing day then.
The Brexit Party will sweep the board.

Re: Euro Votes
Me & the doggie will cast our votes this afternoon. I have been a lifelong Labour Supporter. Used to be a member. But after Jezza's mealy mouthed efforts in the Referendum, I cancelled my subscription. I shall vote Liberal Democrat as they stand to make the best showing for the Remainers. I would probably vote Labour in a General Election, but considering how the Conservatives are so fixated with Brexit and have neglected: poverty, lawnorder, housing, transport infrastructure, education, defence ( you name it, really ); Jezza's politicing has been absolutely shameful. As for the doggie, she is a French breed & absolutely terrified of being deported back to La Belle France. She will therefore give anyone she thinks may vote for Farage, a fearsome licking.

Re: Euro Votes
The idea that a “party” which has absolutely no policies could win votes is laughable.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2019 10:30 amWell be prepared for a very disappointing day then.

However, I suspect that you’re probably right.

Re: Euro Votes
Life's full of disappointments. Watching 30 something % of voters throw their weight behind a charlatan and carpet-bagger like Farage will forever disappoint me.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2019 10:30 amWell be prepared for a very disappointing day then.

Re: Euro Votes
Will vote Lib Dem as the most credible anti-Brexit party. Can't vote Labour currently with its absolute shambles of a leader.

Re: Euro Votes
Did you come up with that opinion all by yourself? Do you want to share what exactly it is about Corbyn that makes him a shambles? I'm not saying its not a valid opinion, just I hear it so often from people who when pressed seem to want to change the subject.Millennial Snowflake wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2019 10:41 am Will vote Lib Dem as the most credible anti-Brexit party.

Re: Euro Votes
not sure I get how Labour is the best bet to counter the Farage whackos - after all, they've got their own fair share of whackos, and the leadership seems to have a bit in common with Farage, at least on EuropeProposition Joe wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2019 10:01 am I'll vote but haven't made my mind up yet.

I can't see it because (a) its the internet and subtlety is always lost.

Cretinism seems to me contextual. In a room of astrophysicists I would certainly be the cretin. On a Leyton Orient message board...not so much.
