Are you registered to vote/Will you vote?

[lawrawrrr]

Yes and yes. I'm not decided on who I'm voting on yet though, going to pay attention to their policies in the coming months! It'll probably be Plaid Cymru, Lib Dems or Green here though as it's pretty much a 2-horse race (plus I like a lot of Green policies)

Out of the Labour lot, especially the senior team, he was one I could say I sort of liked.

Although he didn't have a great time as a cabinet minister he was a really good MP - and those don't come about often. I still laugh watching the current Norwich North MP in this Paxman interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=or4Nq6fah1k , she came to my school to do a talk about the conservatives and just came across as having her head shoved right up Cameron's arse and not giving a **** about what's good for the constituency.

In a seat like Norwich, will you be tactically voting or does that not matter to you? My guess looking at the polls there would be that the Liberal Democrats will try and appeal to other voters (especially Conservatives) to block Labour from picking up the seat.

Ehh, I'm more concerned about the person than the party, I'll vote for whoever I think will represent the constituency best and has at least some chance of getting in (Polling at least 15%).

Those dodgy Liberal Democrat bar charts which have the bars completely out of scale to the percentages.

Every party around here does that, although I do recall the Lib Dems doing it more. It really ought to be illegal to have those charts out of scale but I doubt any party wants to expand the powers of the regulatory body which deals with that.

I am registered and will probably vote. Problem is I have absolutely no idea who for.
There's also a mayoral election in my town too and I know who I'm voting for with that. Independent candidates with no party loyalty makes things much easier to vote for!

yep and yep

I am registered and I will vote, or at the very least spoil my ballot. Maybe I'll vote myself.

I am and will only vote if ukip has a chance, so most likely no.

Ah right, yeah there are some MPs of other parties I would consider lending my vote for: Kate Hoey (Lab), Frank Field (Lab), Peter Bone (Con), Jacob Rees-Mogg (Con) but it does pain me because that is then seen as a vote for the national party and those group of MPs are way too good for the awful national parties and the leadership. Luckily though I don't have that dilemma although the drawback is that my seat is the strongest Labour seat in the country.

I would say in your case, unless the candidates for the main parties are superbly detatched from the national party and not looking for a career (which means you the electors will be put last rather than having a useful vocal backbench MP) then you'd have more influence by electing one of the smaller parties. A one out of four to eight Ukip MPs would have a big impact on national policy and it's the same for the Greens if you have one out of their say three MPs. Especially in a hung parliament with a possible 3-way Coalition where literally every single MP will count when it comes to votes.

I am and will only vote if ukip has a chance, so most likely no.

To tactically vote for them or against? Not much chance of that up there either way at the moment but you being in a Scottish seat if you are thinking of voting tactically, you'd have a big 'voice' (assuming you are a tactical voter) given the huge Labour-SNP switch going on atm.

Postal vote it is for me
