But never ventured into a general election.. and yes I agree the results would be interesting

Just interested in who will be voting, and for whom, and who won’t want to tell (always found that odd? Thought people should be proud of who they vote for)

I'll be voting Labour as they stand the best chance of winning the Stoke central seat from the Tories
If I lived in a constituency where Lib Dems or Greens or Satan party led by Harold Shipman was most likely to defeat the Tories that's who I would vote for

As I've said before, if I'm im the country, it's my intention to spoil my ballot paper.
If I'm not in the country, I'll not vote.

Here in the US I am going to keep my head down during this upcoming election civil war in November.
Down to a choice between two ideologues, one half-dead, the other half-crazy, which has been the "norm" for a decade now. OR, I could do what I usually do, wait until the Libertarians pick their candidate and "protest vote" for them.

The art of diplomacy is dead.

It's always been DUP who held the seat here and then SF won it last time round. I'll be voting whoever has the best chance out of SDLP/Alliance to take the seat away from SF/DUP. My comment about left wing was a sly dig to the Labour supporters 😜

Amount of people who’ve said the same is staggering (all stoke based mind so not saying it’s a national thing) Polling around 12% nationally so you would expect too see as many as Lib Debs and more than the Greens. For me it will be Labour as a far from ideal but best on offer to get rid of the Tories.

Sinn Fein are certainly more left wing than either but I could understand not wanting to vote them Are the Trotskyist People Before Profit running Candidates? Not that they would have much chance of success

Green, Reform or just spoil my vote
a vote for green or reform is basically the same as spoiling my vote, its just a protest against the broken system we are using that rewards failure
regardless of your intentions or views please go and vote, even if you spoil it then its counted you turned out

I’ll be voting Democratic in the Senate, House and Presidential races. The Presidential will be more because Trump is scum than Biden is a good candidate.
