Who will you be voting for?

Post by Adz »

These are the results of the pre campaign poll, I wonder if anyone has changed intentions since then? My guess, they make no difference

Conservative 30%
Labour 43%
Lib Dem 11%
SNP 1%
DUP No votes
Other 15%

I’m a member of a car forum, probably no surprise there! Yes it’s a fast car forum as well!

Anyway they are running the same poll as above and this is the result so far.

Labour 6 votes or 6.1%
Tory 70 votes or 70.7%
Libs 23 votes 23.2%

I was surprised to say the least, the forum is uk wide and has a total of just under 30k members.

I’d also argue that it’s a rather niche sample of the population. I’m imagining that the wealth level and gender of those who own cars for leisure is probably massively skewed.

Not saying it’s a bad thing but I’d imagine the poll on a fast car forum is about as indicative of a national poll as one on a small Leyton Orient football message board ;)

It's a poll that 99 people, out of 30K members, have voted on.

I have conducted a poll in my living room and all 6 of us will be voting Labour. That's almost over 100%.

In my constituency, the Tories could put up a donkey, and the donkey would still get voted in. Nevertheless I shall vote Labour today, even though it counts for nothing.
Ive had enough of my NHS being run down, had enough of cuts, while billionaires get more and more. Had enough of a society that is becoming hateful,, with the Tory leader, leading the way, with his racism, misogyny,cheating, corruption etc etc
Hope not hate for me today

Next time you, or your wife, or your mum or your dad, or your daughter or your son, is left lying in pain, on the floor, in a hospital corridor, for hours and hours........you can reflect how you ( and other morons), enabled that situation

I cant stand Boris.

Thing is, in five years we get the chance to chuck the government out, but if we've left the EU on a no deal, we cant change that

I had a chat with a man this morning in my local shop, he was about 70 and said I'm off to vote before it starts pouring down with rain. I asked him who he was voting for and he replied "I want brexit done and dusted" I said good man we need an end to this farce so we can all move on. He then said I'm a labour man through and through and have voted labour all my life, but today I'm voting for boris cos im thinking of my grand children. If labour got in we would have utopia for a couple of years and then the bill needs paying and we wont be able to pay it, that's why along with Brexit and for the first time I'm voting for boris, it's hard, but I think it's the right thing to do.

True labour bailing out as he wants brexit finished with. There is plenty more like him out there.

I completely get everyone is sick to death of it, but this is just the start. Sadly the old man will be done and dusted before Brexit is.

I had a chat with 2 men in my local shop today. They were just about to vote and I asked them who they'd vote for. They both said that only an idiot would vote for that lying scumbag Boris and his No Deal Brexit. I agreed with them but said there are still some gullible idiots who will vote for the accomplished liar. They both shook their heads and said there's one born every minute isn't there, who'd vote for an unknown future like a No Deal Brexit? The young don't want it that's for sure. I shook their hands and we walked away.

Good people I thought. True Labour people who don't just think of themselves all the time.

How does that compare with your "true" story Thor?

Prestige, given the obvious importance of this ballot on all our futures, I do hope you're screening for multiple aliases casting multiple votes. Clearly the Labour vote will be correct but you can't trust a Tory (obviously). TIA.

See I have no reason to lie, it's this poisoness of the left that anyone who disagrees with their views or beliefs is wrong. Thats just crazy thinking.

So I don't need to make anything up. It's one mans viewpoint on his voting intentions, but it highlights a real concern among voters, the fact that you dismiss it says more about your closed mind than mine.

Have a nice day sir.
