Usually when people say that it's because someone on their flist has been ranting about me!!

I've never been so undecided in a General Election as I have in this one. I don't feel any of the main parties deserve our votes, but I tend to feel it's a wasted vote if you go for the fringes.

But I notice you've just said "Any", whereas five or ten years ago many, if not most, people would have said "either". Funny how you don't hear that "vote for the lib dems is wasted" argument any more!

Very true!

I would have a similar dilemma but am in Buckingham constituency where Bercow is standing for election as speaker unopposed by the main parties. I'm feeling rather disenfranchised by this. Should I vote for UKIP, a party I most definitely do not support, just to voice my protest at this situation. Surely it is an undemocratic anomaly.

Perhaps I should explain my reasoning for UKIP as a protest vote. It's just that he seems the most likely to have a chance of defeating Bercow. A pretty small chance.

Hello, [livejournal.com profile] phina_v - long time, no see! *waves*

Gosh, that's extraordinary! It makes me think we really do need a 'none of the above' option!

Technically, I'm not even eligible to vote, but I've got a bottle of claret that I'm saving up for the Election Night broadcast.... ^_^
