    Plaid Cymru for me. The risk of another Tory govt fills me with dread. The last one destroyed the Welsh economy, I dread to think what another would do to our country. The present Blue Labour govt is rightwing enough, who knows what sort of rabid policies and even more rightwing party would bring in. Wales needs to go its own way and return to its Socialist roots.

    'Other' for me. Begins with B, 3 letters.

    Bit of a crime to mention them on the forum it turns the mods RED, and angry

    I'm not going to go down the route of calling you a racist, you vote for who ever you want to. But it always amazes me that people can actually vote for a party in the 21st century whose leader denies that the holocaust ever happened and has a past leader that stated that Mein Kampf is his 'bible'. Baffling.

    However, I guess when you have two or three fairly large large parties that seem to not be competent then a small minority of idiots will feel that complex socio-economic problems that are not being solved by the present government may be solved by ensuring people with different skin colours go to another country. Idiotic of course, but you can vaguely understand a weird kind of perverse logic in it.

    My father and millions of his generation risked their lives fighting the Nazis. So voting Nazi is nothing short of treason as far as I'm concerned. At best it's dancing on the graves of those who gave their lives to free Europe from tyranny.

    This government favours people who they deem to be 'different' (how patronising is that?!) people who are gay, or black, disabled - they'll be given the jobs in the local council - even if they're not up to it. NO WONDER OUR STANDARDS HAVE NOSEDIVED!....and if you are a non-English speaking immigrant you'll be sure of being given priority in healthcare - you'll be fastracked! And before anyone accuses me of racism - I'm not racist!

    I wouldn't call you a racist. You come across as homophobic, racist and generally intolerant of others so I would go for the term 'bigot' for you.

    It's tempting, but what happens if None Of The Above wins?

    There's a pretty good chance in view of the opposition.

    What ridiculous things people post here! Whatever you might think of him, to say that he is a moron is way over the top and completely out of order.

    Moron is too strong ..... at worst he's a IDIOT. :D
